- Georgette Baxter: If you really wanted to marry me, you wouldn't talk about it, you'd do it.
- Ted Baxter: Oh, I'd do it right now if I could.
- Georgette Baxter: We can, Ted. We've had the blood test. We have the license and it's still valid. We can call and get a minister over here. We can call our friends and tell them to come over here. What else do we need? So what do you say, buster, you still wanna get married?
- Mary Richards: Georgette, I'll find you something to wear.
- Georgette Baxter: Does it have to be white?
- Sue Ann Nivens: Let's see... Married in white, sailors' delight... no, that isn't it.
- Mary Richards: Do you have any preference about what you want to wear, Georgette?
- Georgette Baxter: Well, I always dreamed of being married in something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue. But what the hell, we're in a hurry
- [Mary is reading the inscription Sue Ann has written in the copy she has given Mary of her new floral arranging book]
- Mary Richards: Ah. "To a shrinking violet who rosed to be a budding producer". Oh, Sue Ann, that's too cute for words.
- Sue Ann Nivens: I know. I tried to use a floral motif for each inscription.
- [Murray starts to read what Sue Ann wrote in his copy]
- Murray Slaughter: "To a fine writer whose work I always admired". Why thanks, Sue Ann. But what's that got to do with flowers?
- Sue Ann Nivens: If you spread it on the ground, it helps them grow.
- [the reverend has just shown up at Mary's apartment in his tennis outfit, complete with racket]
- Reverend Chatfield: Miss Franklin, I'm Reverend Chatfield. I came as soon as I got the message.
- Georgette Baxter: Thank you, Reverend. Come on in. Sorry to trouble you, but we want to get married.
- Reverend Chatfield: Married?
- Georgette Baxter: I hope we didn't spoil your day.
- Reverend Chatfield: Well, no, but I'm a little embarrassed at wearing this to perform a marriage. And... and besides, I was just ordained. I've... I've never done it.
- Sue Ann Nivens: Well, then, it's appropriate that you should wear white.
- [Georgette and Ted are going to recite their own vows]
- Reverend Chatfield: [to Ted] Would you like to say something?
- Ted Baxter: You mean, wing it?
- Sue Ann Nivens: Just say what's in your heart, Ted.
- Ted Baxter: Oh, right.
- [Leans over toward Murray]
- Ted Baxter: Murray?
- Ted Baxter: [Murray leans over and whispers in his ear] Georgette, I promise...
- Ted Baxter: [Murray whispers in his ear] ... to be a devoted husband...
- Ted Baxter: [Murray whispers in his ear] ... and to never give you cause...
- Ted Baxter: [Murray whispers in his ear] ... to regret...
- Ted Baxter: [Murray whispers in his ear] ... having married...
- Ted Baxter: [Murray whispers in his ear] ... such a cluck.
