George: What? Why would you do that?
Principal Petersen: So you're not happy here?
George: No, of course I'm happy here, it's just...
Principal Petersen: Aw, I'm just messing with you. [chuckles] I told them you'd be a fantastic coach and they'd be crazy not to take you.

Quote from George Sr.

George: I'm getting offered a coaching job at Rice.
Mary: Really?
George: Special teams.
Mary: Wow.
George: Yeah. And I... I know moving's a big deal, and-and it's okay if now's not the right time.
Mary: You should take it.
George: You sure?
Mary: Well... [sighs] I mean, Georgie and Mandy are out of the house, Sheldon's leaving soon, and Missy's starting a new school anyway. It seems like a good time to do this.
George: [stammers] What about your mom and CeeCee?
Mary: I'm not saying it's gonna be easy, but it's not that far away.
George: Yeah I guess, but...
Mary: George, you deserve this.
George: I mean, college ball... That's the dream.
Mary: Sounds like we're moving to Houston. [they hug and chuckle]

Quote from Mary

Mary: Sheldon, this isn't about you. This job is good for your father and our family, so you're gonna have to deal with it. Now pick up that plate, get back out there and have dinner with your family while we're all still together.
Sheldon: ... Yes, ma'am.
[Sheldon picks up his plate and walks out of his bedroom]
George: Dang. That was hot.

Meemaw: Why?
Sheldon: So my room is there when I need it.
Dale: I thought you couldn't wait to leave Medford.
Sheldon: Just because I don't want to come back to a place doesn't mean I don't want to have a place that I don't want to come back to.
Dale: That makes sense to me.
Sheldon: Great, let's talk escrow.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: So, where are we? Buy my home outright? Take over our mortgage? Interest rates are looking darn attractive.
