Ann Lawrence : [after making a scene] Well, what are you all staring at? Go back and write your headlines. That's what you're here for, isn't it? Let's see what kind of a story you can get out of a kid's body.

Susan Adele Connors Chase : Who is the mother? Did you find out?
Ann Lawrence : We cancelled the call.
Susan Adele Connors Chase : But why?
Ann Lawrence : We thought if was better if we never found out. In a way he belongs to all three of us. And since all of us can't have him, we decided that you are the one to try to adopt him.
Susan Adele Connors Chase : I don't understand.
Phyllis Horn : Yes, that was our decision.
Susan Adele Connors Chase : But you just can't leave it like this. You aren't being fair to yourselves. You'll blame yourself all you life if you don't find out.
Ann Lawrence : Listen, Susan. You can get Johnnie. No court in the world would turn you two down.
Susan Adele Connors Chase : But if he's yours?
Ann Lawrence : Even if he turned out to be mine I have nothing to offer him. Don't make me find him just to lose him all over again. It's much easier to tell myself that maybe he's yours.

Del Prince : I'm telling you what's best for you. Go home. Forget him. Because he's forgotten you.
Ann Lawrence : I'm not like the others. It's different this time.
Del Prince : Not for him it isn't.
Ann Lawrence : I'm going to have his baby.
Del Prince : That IS different.
Ann Lawrence : Thank you very much.
