- Mother Eunice Douglas: Lisa, are you coming?
- Lisa Douglas: Oh darling, I promised Oliver if he gets a decorator I'd stay.
- Mother Eunice Douglas: You don't have to keep a promise, you're a woman.
- Oliver Wendell Douglas: You'll feel better after you've had breakfast.
- Lisa Douglas: Who's going to cook it?
- Oliver Wendell Douglas: Oh well, I want to talk to you about that.
- Lisa Douglas: What is there to talk about?
- Oliver Wendell Douglas: About who's cooking.
- Lisa Douglas: Darling, when we got married I promised to love, honor and obey. I said nothing about cooking.
- Lisa Douglas: Don't shout at mother!
- Oliver Wendell Douglas: I can shout at her, she's my mother!
- Lisa Douglas: Well, she's my mother in law.
- Oliver Wendell Douglas: It's not natural for anybody to like their own mother in law. I don't like your mother.
- Oliver Wendell Douglas: [finding his mother passed out outside] What's wrong with her?
- Eustace Charleton Haney: I don't know. I picked her up at the depot, drover her out, she got out of truck, took one look at the house and keeled over.
- Lisa Douglas: I can understand that.
- Eustace Charleton Haney: Yeah, I guess the rustic beauty is kinda overwhelming.
