• Melinda : Hi, Karl, I'm on my lunch break. I got you these flowers that were on sale, cause they're not fresh. $2.99, plus by 10% employee discount, since I didn't bring you anything on our date last night. Well, I just thought I'd bring them to you. I enjoyed walking with you. I got a blister the size of a quarter on my heel. Well, see you some time I guess.

  [Turns to leave] 

  Karl : Blisters sure can hurt.

• Vaughan Cunningham : Please don't tell anybody at the store that Albert was here. You know how this town is. Everybody spreads cruel rumors.

  Melinda : You mean about you and Albert being that way...? I think everybody at the store already knows about it. Maureen Ledbetter told the most awful story about why you ain't allowed at the First Baptist Church no more.

• Linda Wheatley : Karl, you know what? Melinda here was voted employee of the month at the dollar store last February. Isn't that something?

  Karl : Yes ma'am, I reckon.

  Melinda : Well, when you like pricing items as much as I do, it's just bound to happen sooner or later, I guess.

• Vaughan Cunningham : Listen, everyone, I've had a few glasses of wine and that tends to make me emotional. It came over me in a rush. I just want you to know that I care about each and every person at this table.

  Linda : Thank you, Vaughan. We care about you too, don't we?

  Melinda , Frank , Albert : Yes.

  Karl : Yes, Sir.
