[Jesse joins his parents for morning breakfast, as Angela digs in a cereal box for the toy prize]
Cheryl Walsh : Jesse, are you okay?
Jesse Walsh : It's just so hot up there. I'm having a lot of trouble sleeping.
Cheryl Walsh : I know - Ken, I wish you'd call somebody and have the air conditioning...
Ken Walsh : There's nothing, absolutely nothing wrong with that air conditioning, mom. It just needs a shot of Freon.
Angela Walsh : [Angela finds the toy prize] Here they are!
Jesse Walsh : Oh, no. Come on, dad, you're not trying to fix something again.
Ken Walsh : [Ken smiles] Nobody likes a smart ass, buddy boy.
Angela Walsh : [Angela holds up her hand wearing the Freddy look-alike Fu Man fingers] Look.

[Ken and Cheryl Walsh argue about what help Jesse needs]
Cheryl Walsh : He needs professional help. I think we have to take him to see a psychiatrist.
Ken Walsh : Oh, come on, Cheryl. You're out of your gourd. What the hell will that do?
Cheryl Walsh : I don't know. I just feel he needs help, and we don't know how to give it to him.
Ken Walsh : Oh, come on, Cheryl.
Cheryl Walsh : Are you hearing me? That boy's in trouble!
Ken Walsh : No, he's not in trouble! What that boy needs is a good goddamn kick in the butt, that's what he needs! Tell you what he needs. He needs a methadone clinic.

[Jesse asks his father about their house during the family's morning breakfast]
Jesse Walsh : Dad, how come it took them five years to sell this house?
Ken Walsh : Oh, I don't know. Just couldn't get the right price, I suppose.
Jesse Walsh : You didn't know anything about the murder across the street, and the crazy girl who lived here that saw the whole thing?
Ken Walsh : They told me something about it, yeah, but I...
Cheryl Walsh : You mean, you knew something about this, and you...
Ken Walsh : Oh, come on, Cheryl. How do think we got such a good deal, huh?
Jesse Walsh : Did they tell you that that girl lost her mind, and her mother killed herself in our living room?
Cheryl Walsh : [Cheryl yells out louder] What?
Jesse Walsh : Did they tell you that?
Angela Walsh : Mom, I'm scared.
Ken Walsh : [Ken signals for Angela to come to him] Come here.
Cheryl Walsh : [Cheryl tells her daughter] Oh, honey, it's all right. Daddy and Jesse are just pretending, that's all. I don't think this is something we should discuss here.
Ken Walsh : [Ken tells Jesse] See what you're doing here? I don't want to hear one more word about it, Jess. There is absolutely nothing, I mean *nothing*, wrong with this house. Come on.
Angela Walsh : Something burning?

[the Walsh family downstairs hear the sound of Jesse waking up by screaming]
Angela Walsh : Mommy? Why can't Jesse wake up like everybody else?
Cheryl Walsh : Oh, honey, he's all right. He's just having a bad dream.

[Ken Walsh tries to check behind the oven for a gas leak, and if it was the cause of the family bird to explode]
Jesse Walsh : It isn't the gas.
Ken Walsh : Don't tell me it's not the gas. Your mother thought she smelled gas.
Cheryl Walsh : Well, Ken, I thought I did. I wasn't sure.
Ken Walsh : All right, then. What is it? I mean, bird rabies? It's that cheap seed you been buying.
Cheryl Walsh : Oh, please, Ken. Really...
Ken Walsh : Well, it could be. There's got to be a reasonable explanation. I mean, animals don't just explode into flames for no reason. Do they?
