• Dr. Lanskell : Your prayers have been answered. You're getting rid of your last little girl.

  Grandmother Lovell : Yes, this is my last wedding.

  Dr. Lanskell : Don't be too sure. I'm still single.

  Grandmother Lovell : Yeah. You've always been too easy. The man must be the master. I was just telling Joe, here, when I was a little wife - my husband's slightest wish was my command. So be firm, Joe.

  Joe Ralston : [laughs]  Yes, Grandma.

• Joe Ralston : You said when you came in here that Charlotte was not marrying me honorably. What did you mean?
