Quotes 

• Rob Petrie : Let's neck.

  Laura Petrie : Now quit kidding around.

  Rob Petrie : I'm not kidding around. I wanna neck.

• Rob Petrie : It is pretty bad, isn't it, when a kid's birthday party becomes a status symbol?

• Rob Petrie : Aw, what kind of a party would it be if they can't eat the house along WITH the volcano?

• [Buddy, Sally and Rob try to devise a game show sketch for Alan Brady] 

  Buddy Sorrell : Hey, I got the game show! It-it's like "What's My Line?" only it's called "What Was This Fellow's Name Before He Changed It To What It Is Now, And Why Did He Change It, Do You Think?"

  Sally Rogers : Is that the title or the whole show?

  Buddy Sorrell : No, that's the idea of the thing. They bring a fellow in, they say "This man manufactures golf sweaters, and he calls him..." - you know, if he likes it - so "he calls himself Sam Golfsweater," cause he wants everyone to know he makes golf sweaters."

  Sally Rogers : All right, what was his name before he changed it?

  Buddy Sorrell : Al Paca!

  Sally Rogers : Get outta here.

  Buddy Sorrell : No, no...

  Sally Rogers : BUDDY!

  Buddy Sorrell : You'll like it. It'll grown on you.

  Sally Rogers : I don't want anything to grow on me!

  Buddy Sorrell : One-one-one more. One more. A girl lives in Pennsylvania, and she's so proud of her home state, she calls herself Patricia Pittsburgh.

  Sally Rogers , Rob Petrie : [together, with threatening fists]  What was her name before she changed it?

  Buddy Sorrell : Phyllis Adelphia.

  Sally Rogers : [chasing him to the sofa]  Ohh, Buddy!

• Laura Petrie : I'm trying to decide when to have Ritchie's birthday.

  Rob Petrie : I thought we decided that about eight years ago.

• Rob Petrie : Doesn't he at least get a good old-fashioned birthday cake?

  Laura Petrie : Yeah, when they go to the ice cream volcano.

  Rob Petrie : Volcano?

  Laura Petrie : Yeah, instead of lava, they use hot fudge.

• Rob Petrie : Honey, you can't handle 63 kids all by yourself.

  Laura Petrie : By myself?

  Rob Petrie : Somebody has to go out for the birthday cake.

  Laura Petrie : Darling, it won't take all day to pick up the cake.

  Rob Petrie : Well, it will if I work it right.
