- Allison Parker: Life doesn't always come neatly packed, and neither does love.
- Billy Campbell: [laughs] Alison, you should listen to yourself. You sound like a dysfunctional Hallmark card.
- Carrie Fellows: [placing her pan up in Rhonda's face] Rhonda, you missed a spot!
- Rhonda Blair: Excuse me?
- Carrie Fellows: Right here, on my pan. When you cleaned up after breakfast. See, burned egg, right in the rivets. I said "soak it". I told you to soak it!
- Rhonda Blair: That's it?
- Carrie Fellows: You just don't care. You just have no respect.
- Rhonda Blair: Respect? Carrie, you are a nut!
- Carrie Fellows: And you're a slob!
- Rhonda Blair: Look Carrie, I don't think this is gonna work out. I think you ought to find yourself another place to live.
- Carrie Fellows: Yeah, right after I clean my pan.
- Jane Andrews Mancini: You know it's funny, but I just don't picture Allison as a home wrecker, no matter how in love she thinks she is.
- Rhonda Blair: I can't seem to find my vitamins.
- Carrie Fellows: They're right here. I filed them under 'V' for vitamins, see? Between the vegie salt and the V-8 juice.
- Rhonda Blair: You alphabetized our kitchen?
- Carrie Fellows: Yes, yesterday while you were teaching. And I also threw in this kitchen caddy. Sort of as a house warming gift.
- Rhonda Blair: Well, thanks.
- Carrie Fellows: This is last year's model, but nobody will ever know. The newer version has wider shelves for thicker bottles.
- Rhonda Blair: [to Carrie after she finds her closet empty] When I left for work this morning, I could've sworn I had a closet full of clothes. And now... And what is this smell?
- Carrie Fellows: Forest spice.
- Rhonda Blair: I beg your pardon?
- Carrie Fellows: Well, you had a choice between that or sandalwood or patchouli.
- Rhonda Blair: What's that?
- Carrie Fellows: Deodorizer for your shoes.
- Rhonda Blair: My shoes? My shoes now smell like pine trees?
- Carrie Fellows: Like you took a brisk walk in the woods.
- Rhonda Blair: I'm afraid to ask about my clothes.
- Carrie Fellows: Those I sent to the best dry cleaner in town. A place in Beverly Hills.
- Rhonda Blair: They don't do smells too?
- Carrie Fellows: I don't know, but I could ask.
- Rhonda Blair: No, no, I like my aroma just fine, thanks. Listen, Carrie, you might want to think about kicking back just a bit. You really don't have to be quite so tidy, do you? Especially with my stuff. I mean, too much of a good thing can be too much.
- Carrie Fellows: I see what you mean.
- Rhonda Blair: Then you'll ease up?
- Carrie Fellows: Absolutely. I was only trying to be helpful.
- Rhonda Blair: That you are.
- Carrie Fellows: And if there's one thing I understand, that's when to stop.
- Rhonda Blair: Good.
- Carrie Fellows: Oh, well, I see you're using one of my copper pots.
- Rhonda Blair: You don't mind, do you?
- Carrie Fellows: No I don't. That cookware is guaranteed to last a lifetime if you take care of it properly. You know, if I soak that right now, it'll be a lot easier to clean.
- Rhonda Blair: Carrie...
- Carrie Fellows: Ok, well, I was just trying to be...
- Rhonda Blair: Helpful. I know, I know.
- Carrie Fellows: You know what...
- Rhonda Blair: For just this once, let me do something for you, Okay?
- Carrie Fellows: Okay. Rhonda, I just...
- Rhonda Blair: Don't you dare touch that pan, Carrie.
- Carrie Fellows: You know, I know I can come off a little compulsive, and maybe anal sometimes. I mean, I've made a whole career out of it. But if I ever get in the way, you just let me know, okay? Because roommates like you are pretty rare, Rhonda. And I wouldn't want to jeopardize our relationship.
