Quote from Mary
Pastor Rob: So, what do you think?
Mary: [exhales] Well, um... I would miss having you around, but I think you need to follow your heart.
Pastor Rob: What if my heart doesn't know what it wants?
Mary: I don't know. Pick a different organ.
Pastor Rob: Mary Cooper.
Mary: Oh, grow up. [Pastor Rob laughs] That's not what I meant.
Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Shouldn't you be laying down?
Mandy: No, it's good to be on my feet. The doctor said this could take a while.
Sheldon: Could you be more specific? I have a thing at 5:00.
Quote from George Sr.
Brenda Sparks: Well, I, I guess I'm gonna go.
George: Come on, stay. Keep me company.
Brenda Sparks: Fine. Remember the last time we were here?
George: You mean the night you gave me a heart attack?
Brenda Sparks: [giggles] Stop it. I did not give you a heart attack.
George: You gave me something.
Brenda Sparks: Well... Oh, hey, Mary.
Quote from Mary
Mary: What's going on?
George: Nothing. What's going on with you?
Mary: Who's with Mandy?
George: The doctor.
Mary: What are you two doing out here?
George: Waiting on you. Where have you been?
Mary: I was at lunch.
Pastor Rob: [enters] Hey. I hear we're having a baby. [everyone is silent] What? Did I miss it?
Quote from George Sr.
George: What is he doing here?
Mary: He's a pastor, and he wanted to be here.
George: I mean what is he doing here with you?
Mary: He asked me for some advice, so we had lunch.
George: So that's why no one could find you for hours.
Mary: Are you accusing me of something?
George: Is there something to accuse you of?
Pastor Rob: Hey, today's the day of miracles. Do you really want to be fighting?
George: Stay out of this.
Mary: We didn't do anything wrong.
Brenda Sparks: I think I'm gonna head out.
George: No, he's staying, you're staying.
Mary: What does that mean?
George: Nothing, just... Nothing.
Mary: What's going on with you two?
George: [scoffs] What's going on with you two?
Quote from Brenda Sparks
Mary: Is my husband your mystery man?
George: No. She's dating someone else.
Mary: How do you know that?
George: She told me.
Mary: Why are you talking to my husband about your love life?
Brenda Sparks: You know, Mary, you might want to be careful about throwing stones, 'cause I've seen your glass house.
Mary: What does that mean?
Brenda Sparks: I saw how upset you were when this one was on a date.
Pastor Rob: Really?
George: What the hell do you mean, "really"?
Quote from Audrey
Audrey: What's going on? Where's Mandy?
Mary: Uh, she's fine. She's in her room.
Audrey: So she's having a baby by herself while you're all out here?
George: No, Sheldon's with her.
Audrey: Unbelievable.
Quote from Audrey
Jim: You're doing great, sweetie.
Audrey: Didn't work 30 years ago, doesn't work now.
Meemaw: I think I'll just let y'all have a little family time.
Mandy: Please stay.
Quote from Jim
Mary: [enters] Hey. Oh, how we doing?
Mandy: I'm all right. [Mary sighs] Are you all right?
Mary: I'm fine. Just fine.
Audrey: Fine? Looked like your husband was gonna punch out that guy in the waiting room.
Meemaw: What happened?
Mary: When did you get here?
Meemaw: Earlier. So, who did George almost punch?
Jim: Some little fella with a mustache. [Mary flashes an ashamed look to her mother]
Quote from Jim
Mandy: [groans]
Jim: Okay, hang in there, baby, you're doing great.
Audrey: What did I just tell you?
Jim: I don't know what else to say.
Quote from Mandy
Audrey: I think we're getting close. Since the father's not here, I'll go in the delivery room with you.
Meemaw: Or I'm happy to go, if you want. [quietly] I'm not gonna be sitting down anytime soon.
Mary: Georgie will be here.
Audrey: If he were gonna be here, he'd be here. But honestly, who's surprised?
Jim: Well, I'm a little surprised.
Audrey: Jim, not now.
Jim: All right, well, I can have my own opinion. I think he's a good kid.
Audrey: You never take my side.
Jim: Are you kidding me?! I missed her whole pregnancy 'cause I took your side.
Audrey: So you're just, you're just okay with all of this?
Jim: My daughter is having a baby. I'm thrilled.
Mandy: Aw, Dad.
Quote from George Jr.
Georgie: [enters] Sorry I'm late.
Jim: Oh, no, no, no. You're right on time. Told you.
Mandy: You are completely late, but I'm really glad you're here.
Georgie: Do you want all these people around?
Mandy: No!
Georgie: All right, everybody out.
Audrey: But...
Georgie: Out.
Mary: Uh, we'll be in the waiting room if you need us.
