    706. Baptists, Catholics and an Attempted Drowning

    April 4, 2024

    After an argument about where Georgie and Mandy will get married, Mary and Audrey scramble to ensure baby CeeCee is baptised in their respective denominations. Meanwhile, Sheldon is upset when his dormmate makes a change to his computer.

Quote from George Jr.

Mary: Well, you're living together, sleeping together, doing... other things together.
Mandy: [quietly] Told you we were being too loud.
Georgie: I'm ticklish, I can't help it.
Mary: Okay. I just think, if you're gonna be doing that, you should be married.
Georgie: I thought when you got married you stop doing that.
Mary: No, in fact... Don't change the subject.

Quote from George Sr.

George: Yeah, it was real nice of you two to pay for the wedding.
Jim: Well, you know, parents of the bride, tradition.
George: Yeah. If you need us to help out at all, we can kick in.
Jim: No, we got it.
George: [laughs] Good, 'cause we can't.

Quote from Mary

Audrey: You people don't even dance. What kind of a wedding is that?
Mary: It is about the union of two souls, not doing the hokeypokey.
Jim: Well, George, it was nice while it lasted.
George: Yeah, you take care of yourself.
Audrey: Hell of a lot more fun than a reception with no alcohol.
Mary: That's all you people care about, drinking.
Audrey: Jesus drank wine!
Mary: Well, he probably had to to put up with people like you!

Quote from George Jr.

Mandy: Hey, where are my folks?
[George shares a look with Mary]
Mandy: Oh, what'd she do?
Mary: I-I don't want to put you in the middle.
Georgie: Great. I'm gonna make a plate before Dad finishes it all.
George: What? I... There's 14 pounds.
Georgie: We're saying the same thing, big boy.

Quote from Pastor Jeff

Pastor Jeff: Do you trust in Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior? [CeeCee coos] Close enough. It's on your profession of faith that I baptize you in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy...
Missy: [enters] Hey.
Mary: Hey, sweetie. How was school?
Missy: What's going on here?
Mary: Just washing CeeCee's hair.
Pastor Jeff: Mm.
Missy: With Pastor Jeff?
Pastor Jeff: It takes a village.
Missy: Whatever. [walks off]
Mary: [whispers] Go, go, go, go.
Pastor Jeff: ... and the Holy Spirit. Amen. [Mary gasps] In your face, Catholics. [they high-five]

Quote from Sheldon

Mary: Shelly, everything okay?
Sheldon: No, it is not. Both my computer and my trust have been betrayed.
George: Okay. Well, we-we're with company now. You can fill us in later.
Sheldon: I won't ruin your dinner with the suspense. Evan upgraded my computer.
Jim: Oh. That sounds nice.
Sheldon: He didn't even ask me.
Mary: Is it better?
Sheldon: It's different. What kind of person takes something that doesn't belong to them and changes it behind their back?
Mary: Well, m-maybe he thought he was doing the best thing for your computer.
Sheldon: It's my computer. It should have been my decision. I don't even have a room to storm off to!

Quote from Mary

Mandy: Sounds like things went better with my parents.
Mary: Yes. All good. We were both being stubborn before.
Mandy: Yeah, I know this is hard, but... thank you for letting us make our own decisions for our kid.
Mary: Mm-hmm. [throat breaks]
Mandy: You okay?
Mary: Yeah, yeah. Mm. But, um... there's something you should know. CeeCee... accidentally got splashed here in the sink this morning.
Mandy: So what?
Mary: Uh, Pastor Jeff did the splashing while he was baptizing her. [Mandy gasps] That's all.

Quote from Audrey

Mandy: Can you believe it?
Audrey: I'm not surprised she would do something like this. But don't worry... I was one move ahead.
Mandy: What does that mean?
Audrey: It means my granddaughter's soul is safe.
Mandy: What did you do?
Audrey: Is that the sweater I bought you? Oh, it looks so cute.
Mandy: What did you do?!
Audrey: I baptized her. Grow up.

Quote from George Jr.

Mandy: They're making decisions about our child without talking to us. That's totally unacceptable.
Georgie: I'm right there with you. Not cool.
Mandy: Okay, so what are we gonna do about it?
Georgie: Well, I'm gonna talk to both of 'em and make it real clear there'll be no more baptizing. We are done with that.
Mandy: I forget sometimes what a child you are.
Georgie: You know, when you say hurtful stuff like that, you sound a little like your mother.
Mandy: Say that again.
Georgie: Kind of wish I never said it the first time.
Mandy: Mm-hmm.
Georgie: [quietly] Why do I even talk?

Quote from Sheldon

Georgie: Let me ask you a question. Can you un-baptize somebody?
Sheldon: Well, since it's a magical ceremony that doesn't mean anything, then, sure, why not? In the name of science and reason, I un-baptize you.
Georgie: No, not me. Put it back.
Sheldon: Oh. Okay. Control-Z. You're baptized.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: Well, you're lucky it was just a baby and not a computer.
Georgie: It don't look broken.
Sheldon: "Doesn't." And it isn't.
Georgie: "Ain't."
Sheldon: Point is, my roommate went behind my back.
Georgie: Did he at least mean well?
Sheldon: Absolutely. He's a nice fella.
Georgie: Then what's your problem?
Sheldon: I'll show you.
Computer Voice: Check. Checkmate. Computer wins.
Sheldon: And it's set to novice level.
Georgie: I don't understand a damn thing I'm looking at.

Quote from Dale

Mandy: I'm not a lawyer, but you could make the argument that my child was kidnapped, twice. And you'd think Georgie would be on my side, but he wasn't even upset.
Meemaw: Well, you know, sometimes men can be... idiots.
Dale: Lovable idiots.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: I'll get the monitor and the computer, you get the printer.
Mary: Hello.
Sheldon: Hello.
Evan: Don't forget the modem.
Sheldon: Mm.
Mary: I thought you were in school.
Sheldon: Oh, I was. Evan and I just came here to get my computer.
Mary: I'm guessing this is Evan.
Sheldon: Yes. Isn't he great?
Mary: Uh, Shelly, we're kind of in the middle of something.
Mandy: Oh, still? I was hoping we were done.
Mary: No, not done.
Sheldon: Just pretend we're not here, as I'm doing with you.

Quote from Sheldon

Sheldon: Wait, a wedding? Does that mean I have to be the best man?
Georgie: No, Sheldon.
Sheldon: Okay. But I am the best, and I am a man, just listen to my voice. Okay, I'll do it.
Evan: Can I come?
Sheldon: Sure.
Mandy: No.
Sheldon: [shakes his head] No.
Evan: Aw.

Quote from Jim

Mandy: Mom around?
Jim: Why?
Mandy: I'm not looking for a fight. I just have a wedding update.
Jim: Mm, sounds like fighting words to me.
Mandy: Dad.
Jim: Audrey! Mandy's here. She says she's not looking for a fight.
Audrey: [enters] Hello, Amanda.
Mandy: Hi, Mom.
Jim: [shivers] Just get chilly in here or what? [laughs]
