Quotes 

• Carla Tortelli : [after Eddie's French-speaking mother leaves the bar]  I get the feeling she wasn't nuts about me.

  Carla Tortelli : [looks at Frasier]  What did she say?

  Dr. Frasier Crane : What makes you think I'd know?

  Carla Tortelli : All you pompous windbags speak French.

• Eddie LeBec : Say, you know, ah, since I'm already here, there's something I wanted to ask you.

  Carla Tortelli : Yeah?

  Eddie LeBec : It's a question.

  Carla Tortelli : I like questions.

  Eddie LeBec : OK, but see, this is the kind of question a guy really doesn't want to ask if he thinks he might get "no" for an answer.

  Carla Tortelli : Well, it's kind of hard for a girl to give an answer until she knows what the question is.

  Eddie LeBec : OK, but you see, it would be a lot easier for a guy if he had some sort of sign...

  Carla Tortelli : [excited]  Ask me, you little frog.

  Eddie LeBec : OK, Carla, would you...

  Carla Tortelli : [climbs over the table to Eddie, exited]  Yes! Yes!

  [Carla gives Eddie a series of big kisses] 

  Eddie LeBec : Oh, oh, oh, wait, wait wait. Carla, would you mind if we, if we kept this quiet? You know me, I don't like a lot of hoopla.

  Carla Tortelli : Oh, yeah. Sorry. Would it be OK if I just told Sam?

  Eddie LeBec : [sheepishly]  I guess.

  Carla Tortelli : [starts to run toward Sam and yells at the top of her lungs]  Hey Sammy. Me and Eddie are getting married!

• Carla Tortelli : [gets off the phone with her doctor and yells in horror]  Twins?

  Carla Tortelli : [about Eddie]  He spills the salt, he breaks the mirror, and I'm the one having twins. I told you something horrible was going to happen.

  Eddie LeBec : What is so bad? Twins means we're twice blessed.

  Sam Malone : Yeah! I had twins once, and it was the happiest day of my life.

• Annie Tortelli : [about herself and husband Anthony]  Actually, Mother Tortelli, we didn't want to return to Vegas. We don't think it's any place for children to grow up.

  Carla Tortelli : You're having a kid?

  Annie Tortelli : I'm talking about us.

• Rebecca Howe : Carla. Here's your final paycheque. I might say that you have been a unique employee, and it's going to be very difficult to fill your uniform.

  Carla Tortelli : Thanks.

  Rebecca Howe : You don't happen to know any other short, pregnant cocktail waitresses, do you?
