- Clair Hanks Huxtable: When do you feel this pressure?
- Theodore 'Theo' Huxtable: Every now and then.
- Clair Hanks Huxtable: This is not about pressure. Vanessa got drunk because she and her friends were bored, although they had television, VCR, video cassettes, audio cassettes, books...
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: And each other.
- Clair Hanks Huxtable: Thank you.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: That they call on the phone every five minutes when they're away, yet somehow they were bored together.
- Clair Hanks Huxtable: So you see, Vanessa wasn't feeling any pressure from us. The only pressure she felt was from the people she was with.
- Theodore 'Theo' Huxtable: Because of what you two have accomplished, the world expects a lot more from us than from other kids.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: And that's our fault?
- Theodore 'Theo' Huxtable: Think about it, you're a doctor, Mom's a lawyer, that's a lot of pressure.
- Clair Hanks Huxtable: Theo, we never said become a doctor, become a lawyer, we say go to school, we say study, we say become something.
- Vanessa Huxtable: [hung over] Daddy, my head, my stomach, please, can you give me something?
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Nothing I can give you kid, there's no cure for this.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: [Vanessa breaks the rhythm on the alphabet game on L] I'll tell you what, you're in a L of a jam now. Whoever loses the fourth round has to drink four drinks.
- [last lines]
- Vanessa Huxtable: [takes the shot glass up to her mouth, scrunches up her face, and drinks. she expects to taste bourbon, but...]
- [as her face relaxes]
- Vanessa Huxtable: this is tea...
- Rudy Huxtable, Clair Hanks Huxtable, Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: Gotcha!
- Clair Hanks Huxtable: Cliff, Angela Hennings just called to say that, while she and her husband were out, her daughter and her friends - our daughter included - decided to play the Alphabet Game while chug-a-lugging bourbon and it seems that Vanessa was very drunk when she left.
- Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable: She must have lost.
