Meemaw: Oh. Can you please?
George: Oh. Sorry. Been there. [shouting] She's hungover! Wants us to keep it down!
Quote from Meemaw
Mary: I'm starting to worry about you.
Meemaw: I just had a little too much to drink. So what?
Mary: If you're upset about Dr. Sturgis, that's okay.
Meemaw: I'm not upset. I don't care.
Mary: So you don't care that I saw him last night?
Meemaw: No. I hope he's great.
Mary: Okay.
Meemaw: Is he great?
Mary: He seemed okay.
Meemaw: Tell it to somebody who cares.
Quote from Dale
George: You want to see what she can do?
Dale: I want to see her go home.
George: Sorry?
Dale: Come on, I'm not gonna put a girl on the team.
George: Why not?
Dale: Why not? She's a girl. She's got pigtails.
Quote from Missy
George: Missy, give us a minute.
Missy: No, I want to hear.
Dale: Look, sweetheart, I just think it's great you want to be on the team, but these boys are gonna eat you alive.
Missy: I'm not afraid of them.
Dale: Well, maybe you should be.
Quote from Dale
George: At least let her throw a few. She got a hell of an arm.
Dale: George, you're a football coach, right?
George: Mm-hmm.
Dale: You gonna put a girl on your team?
George: It's different. It's a contact sport.
Dale: So is this. She gets up to bat, and someone deliberately throws a ball at her, it's gonna make contact.
George: You're not even gonna give her a chance?
Dale: No.
George: Come on, let's get out of here. I'm sorry, honey.
Missy: It's not your fault.
Dale: Bye-bye.
Quote from George Jr.
Dorothy: Oh, and this is me and my cousin Glen. No, no, wait. Is that Russell or Glen? No, I'm pretty sure that's Glen.
Georgie: Uh-huh.

Missy: Okay.
Sheldon: Missy.
Missy: What?
Sheldon: Do good baseball.
Quote from Meemaw
Meemaw: Can I talk to you?
Dale: Yeah.

Dale: Oh, well, I was just looking out for her, that's all.
Meemaw: Is that so?
Dale: Yes, ma'am, it is.
Meemaw: Well, we don't need you deciding what's best for her.
Dale: Uh-huh. What do you need?
Meemaw: I need you to give her the same chance you would a boy!
Dale: Or what?
Meemaw: Or you and me gonna have problems.
Dale: Well, we wouldn't want that, would we?
Meemaw: No, we wouldn't.
Quote from Meemaw

Dorothy: I'm sure it'll be just any minute. Let me show you my collection of antique bells. [rings a bell in his face]
Georgie: Please stop.
