Diana Scarwid: Karen Tyler

Quotes 

• Darrin Tyler : [after Jaye fainted at work]  Did anyone examine her?

  Karen Tyler : A very handsome paramedic said he couldn't find anything physically wrong. Didn't you think he was handsome?

  Sharon Tyler : Please stop asking me that.

  Darrin Tyler : A paramedic is not qualified to tell you that nothing is wrong.

  Aaron Tyler : It's not physical, it's emotional. She lives in a trailer park. Clearly, she's disturbed. I mean... clearly.

  Karen Tyler : She's not disturbed; she's depressed. And they have pills for that now. Can't you prescribe something?

  Darrin Tyler : You don't just start popping pills because you feel a little down. I mean, there are other ways to deal with depression. Sweetheart, when's the last time you had an orgasm?

  Sharon Tyler : [awkward silence]  That sound you hear is stunned silence.

  Darrin Tyler : There's nothing to be ashamed of. Millions of people have orgasms every day.

  Jaye : Not ashamed. Mortified.

  Darrin Tyler : Maybe she should talk to Dr. Ron.

  Karen Tyler : I really don't want her talking to my therapist. She'll give him ideas.

  Jaye : Don't need therapy. All better now.

  Sharon Tyler : I think we should put her down.

  Karen Tyler : Sharon.

  Aaron Tyler : It is just like going to sleep.

• Karen Tyler : I need to talk to you about the monkey.

  Jaye : What monkey?

  Karen Tyler : The one you stole from Dr. Ron's office. He'd like it back. He's refusing to see me until he gets it, so you should take care of that right away.

  Jaye : I didn't take the monkey.

  Karen Tyler : Sharon, another cigarette? Aren't your fingertips yellow enough?

  [Sharon leaves] 

  Karen Tyler : Of course you took the monkey, sweetheart. He's got it all on tape. He put a security camera in his office after that Olsen girl stabbed herself and told everyone he tried to kill her.

  Jaye : Oh. Okay. Then I guess I have the monkey. Can't you just buy him a new one?

• Karen Tyler : [after hearing Jaye fainted at work]  Everyone's here. Untie the door and let us in.

  Darrin Tyler : What's she doing back there?

  Aaron Tyler : Maybe she's taking a dump.

  Karen Tyler : Must you be such a sow?

  Sharon Tyler : The mouth-breather at the store said she went pale, twitched a couple of times, and passed out.

  Darrin Tyler : Well, that doesn't sound good.

  Karen Tyler : He called it a "'sode", short for "episode."

  Jaye : I'm fine. You can go home now.

  Karen Tyler : Sweetheart, you're not fine. You had a 'sode.

  Jaye : Just low blood sugar. Ate a Snickers. Thanks for coming.

  Sharon Tyler : If this is an intervention, shouldn't we be intervening?

  Darrin Tyler : Who said anything about an intervention?

  Karen Tyler : It's not so much an intervention as it is a collective expression of concern.

  Sharon Tyler : You said "intervention."

  Karen Tyler : Well, it got you here, didn't it?
