Ranger Clay Morgan : How 'bout having supper with us next Sunday?
Ranger Jace Pearson : There's nothing I'd like better - if you promise me your good wife, Betty, won't try to marry me off again.

Ranger Clay Morgan : [reading a telegram] You know, Betty sure has a great sense of humor. Listen to this: "Susie Ann sends a big hug and a kiss to her Uncle Jace and so does Junior, but tell that big lug that he'll never see them again unless he has supper with us on Sunday. I've invited Jo over and you know what a wonderful person Jo is."
Ranger Jace Pearson : Well, I guess Betty is tired of trying to marry me off. Tell her I'll be there. Hey, this Joe - who's he?
Ranger Clay Morgan : He's a she.
Ranger Jace Pearson : What?
Ranger Clay Morgan : Yeah, Jo - short for Josephine.
Ranger Jace Pearson : Oh, no!
Ranger Clay Morgan : Oh, yeah! Well, what do you say now?
Ranger Jace Pearson : What can I say? I'm trapped.
