Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : I guess we have to ask.
Sophia Petrillo : No we don't.
Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : She'll work it in anyway. What tragedy, Rose?
Rose Nylund : I can't talk about it.
Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : Fine.
Sophia Petrillo : Good.
Rose Nylund : But it had to do with barbequing elk, a big fire and someone who lost his balance.

Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : [talking about her upcoming trip to New York] I'm going just for two days, to see a doctor. I've asked Rose to go with me.
Blanche Devereaux : [offended] Rose? Why her?
Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : She's comforting.
Blanche Devereaux : And I'm not?
Sophia Petrillo : You told me you were having a pedicure when your husband was dyin'.
Blanche Devereaux : Well of course I was, Sophia. It was the third Thursday of the month. If I'd cancelled, that would have been it for July and August, when I'd be wearin' open-toed sandals.
Sophia Petrillo : [mocking] Angel of mercy!
Blanche Devereaux : Well I didn't know he was gonna pick that precise hour to die. How could I know that?
Rose Nylund : Well, he was in a coma.
Blanche Devereaux : Oh, he'd been in a coma for days. The fact is, I happen to be very good with sick people. I was once a candy-stripper.
Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : That's *striper*.
