- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Martin's ex-wife wasn't mature or focused. She didn't know what she wanted out of her life. Her head was all over the place.
- Cliff: And so he married you.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: [to Clair] You have forgotten the master plan, and that is we are supposed to get all of the children out of the house, not let them come back in bringing other people with them!
- [Denise reveals she didn't tell her parents she was married to Martin]
- Lt. Martin Kendall: You were gonna let me go in here and meet two people who don't even know I exist, and then say, "By the way, I'm married to this guy"?
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Yeah, something like that.
- Clair Huxtable: Well, first of all, we want to tell that we are really proud of you for sticking it out in the rainforest of Africa. That must have been quite an experience and I'm sure that you have grown a lot from that. And you're probably thinking about what you're gonna do next with your life.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: You know, as a matter of fact, I wanna talk to you guys about that.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Yes! And I talked to the president of Hillman and she said you can come back anytime you want.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Mom, Dad, I'd like to... talk to you about the guy who's watching my luggage.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: [chuckles] Come on. No, no, no. We're talking about...
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: No, Dad.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Yes?
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: He's wonderful.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Good, good.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: His name is Martin.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Fine.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: And, um... Dad, he graduated from Annapolis. And, uh... ahem. He's a lieutenant in the navy.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Ah, boy. Navy man. Can't go wrong with that.
- Clair Huxtable: You have to bring him by the house sometime.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Yeah, yeah! I love to! Soon, I hope.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Sure, okay, yeah.
- Clair Huxtable: Wow! You two sound serious.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Yeah, we are.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Yeah.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Um... We got married.
- [Clair is shocked]
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: So, I'm talking about what we're going to do is... Now, even if you don't want to go to college...
- Clair Huxtable: [while Cliff is still talking] Cliff, stop! Stop, Cliff! Stop, stop, STOP!
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: I'm talking to her about going to college...
- Clair Huxtable: This child has just said that she is married.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: WHO said that?
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Mom, Dad, the Kendalls are home!
- [Cliff and Clair come downstairs]
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: There's someone here I'd like you to meet.
- [Cliff and Clair are introduced to Martin's daughter, Olivia]
- Clair Huxtable: Oh, Martin, she's adorable. Isn't she, Cliff?
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: She's too short.
- Lt. Martin Kendall: Dr. Huxtable, Mrs. Huxtable. It's a pleasure to meet you both. Denise has told me so much about you.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: I'm sorry we can't say the same about you.
- Lt. Martin Kendall: Olivia, this is Denise's father. His name is Dr. Huxtable.
- Olivia Kendall: Hi.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: And how are you?
- Olivia Kendall: I'm fine.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Good. Do you have a job?
- Olivia Kendall: No.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Then I guess I can't get any money out of you.
- Olivia Kendall: I have money.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: You do? How much?
- Olivia Kendall: I have a lot of it. You can have some if you want.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: I know this is not one of my children.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: You want me to make you a peanut butter sandwich?
- Olivia Kendall: Yes, please.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Okay.
- Kenny: Uh, Denise?
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Yes?
- Kenny: I'll have mine on toast, with lettuce, bananas, and jam.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Kenny, this is not your house. If you want a peanut butter sandwich, you're gonna have to make it yourself.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Vanessa was in here.
- Clair Huxtable: Oh, really?
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Well, yeah. Came in to complain there's too many people in the house, and then demanded to use our bathroom.
- Clair Huxtable: Did you tell her to get a job?
- Clair Huxtable: Is Denise in bed yet?
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Yeah, I think so.
- Clair Huxtable: I hope everything is all right over there.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: You're worried?
- Clair Huxtable: Yes, I am worried. The child is in a room across the hall with a man and a baby and she's a baby herself. Denise doesn't know what she's doing, Cliff. Did you see her at the table? Did you see her cut that broccoli for Olivia? Those pieces were way too big. And when she wasn't looking, I cut that broccoli myself.
- Rudy Huxtable: Now, my Dad. He can be tough. Never wake him up when he's taking a nap. Whenever he's around, start reading a book. He loves that.
- Olivia Kendall: I don't know how to read.
- Rudy Huxtable: Fake it. You'll score big.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: Um, there's one more thing they sort of don't know about you.
- Lt. Martin Kendall: What?
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: You. They don't know about you.
- Lt. Martin Kendall: I beg your pardon.
- Denise Huxtable Kendall: I don't know, I just sort of forgot to tell them I got married.
