• Leslie Collier : Aunt Julie, I'm very nervous about tonight. No man ever took me home to meet his children before. I don't know what attack to use. Should I be simple and sweet?

  Aunt Julie : Well, I never got anywhere being sweet.

  Leslie Collier : [Leslie pinches Aunt Julie's chin]  You never got anywhere period.

• Junior : Uh, where are you going on your honeymoon?

  Leslie Collier : I'd like to take a trip through the Rockies... with a pack and mules and...

  Enid : The Rockies would be bad for Father's blood pressure.

  Leslie Collier : Well then, we could go to New Orleans for the Mardi Gras, and beat each other over the head with magnolia blossoms.

  [chuckles] 

  Junior : Well, that would be bad for Father's hay fever.

  Senior : How would you children like it if we took a nice trip to some clinic. Then we could sail down my bloodstream and take some lovely x-ray pictures of our honeymoon.

  [Leslie giggles] 

• Aunt Julie : Boy, that Carlos is a killer diller!

  Enid : Believe me, Leslie, I only wanted to help. I had no romantic ideas about him.

  Leslie Collier : Neither did I.

  Aunt Julie : Hm! I did, but you wouldn't let me get my hands on him.
