Frances Bay: Marian McConnell

Quotes 

• Arnie Becker : Mrs. McConnell, you never approved of your mother's new husband, did you?

  Laura McConnell : If by that you mean I've never believed he was really in love with her, you're right.

  Marian McConnell : What do you know about love? You've been divorced 3 times.

  Arnie Becker : Marian, please, let me handle this.

  Roger Devries : Darling, maybe you shouldn't be here, it upsets you so.

  Marian McConnell : No, if she's going to make accusations, she makes them to my face.

  Arnie Becker : What exactly did Mr. Devries do to make you feel this way?

  Laura McConnell : For starters, he fired her business manager of 30 years and replace him with his, then they reinvested all her blue chip stock in unstable commodities.

  Arnie Becker : It's her money, isn't it?

  Laura McConnell : My father worked very hard for that money, Mr. Becker, and she's letting that gigolo throw it away.

  Marian McConnell : Don't you talk about my husband that way.

  Roger Devries : I love Marian. Why is it so hard for you to accept?

  Arnie Becker : Any money she loses is less money for you to inherit, isn't that what's really bothering you, Miss McConnell?

  Laura McConnell : No, it's not.

  Marian McConnell : She's not even in my will anymore. This is the only way she can get to my money.

  Lawyer Mr. Klein : Miss McConnell would have no claim to your money is conservator. She's simply trying to protect your own interests.

  Laura McConnell : For God's sake, Mother, can't you see through him? Are you so far gone you can't see what he is?

  Marian McConnell : I was so lonely after your father died. I heard from you and your brother once, twice a month. Roger is with me every morning when I wake up and at night when I go to bed.

  [Getting up] 

  Marian McConnell : Maybe someday you'll understand how something so simple can mean so much.
