Clair Huxtable : [has just told Rudy to go upstairs and take off the summer dress] Now Cliff, I don't understand how you could look at that dress and tell that child that she could wear it on a day like today. You have been here. And there are three daughters who have grown up in your eyesight. Were you not paying attention?
Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable : I - I paid attention. But I was tricked.
[Clair gives him a long stare]
Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable : I didn't know.
Clair Huxtable : [slowly] Why didn't you check with me first?
Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable : Because I don't know all the time to check. See - a lot of people - see, ah, just a little while ago, if I'd checked, eh, it would've helped me not to let Robert in here.
[Clair smiles]
Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable : But I can't check with the checker and the check in the check checks...
[Clair laughs loudly]
Clair Huxtable : I'm sorry. You're right.
Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable : Thank you, dear.
[They kiss]
Clair Huxtable : And from now on, you don't have to check with anybody.
Dr. Heathcliff 'Cliff' Huxtable : Thank you.
Clair Huxtable : Except me.
[She goes into the kitchen]
