Georgie: Veronica has a boyfriend.
Mary: You mean Dustin?
Georgie: You know him?
Mary: Well, yeah, she met him through the church. Lovely young man.
Georgie: You like him?
Mary: Oh. Well, um the Lord teaches us to like everybody.

Mary: Trust me, this'll pass. You will meet other girls.
Georgie: They won't be Veronica. Is he taller than me?
Mary: It doesn't matter. It's what's inside a person that counts.
Georgie: How much taller?
Mary: A lot.

Mary: I don't see them.
Meemaw: Excuse me. Where do you keep your pregnancy tests?
Mary: Mom.
Mary Sue: Behind the counter at the pharmacy.
Meemaw: Thank you.
Mary: Would you please be a little more discreet?
Meemaw: She doesn't know it's for you.
Mary: Well, it sure isn't for you.

Mary: If I'm pregnant, George is gonna flip out.
Meemaw: I'm sure he would at first. Then he would calm down. Take a few beers. Maybe some malt liquor.
Mary: I suppose. [sighs] The truth is, he and I were both freaked out about having twins. But now I can't imagine life without them.
Meemaw: Well, see, there you are. So, no matter what that test says, you're gonna be okay.
Mary: You're right.
Meemaw: What's it say?
Mary: [sighs] I'm gonna go buy that malt liquor.

Mary: Hey, what you doing?
George: Pretty much what it looks like.
Mary: Would you like some company?
George: Sure, I guess.
Mary: Of course, if you'd rather watch TV, I could leave you alone.
George: Oh, no, no. No, it's a rerun. But even if it weren't-
Mary: Ooh.

Mary: And Pastor Jeff asked me to hold him accountable so he doesn't succumb to temptation.
George: Well, how the heck you do that?
Mary: I'm not sure. Probably have to give him the stink eye every so often.

George: So, this is nice, huh?
Mary: Yes.
George: [long silence, sighs] Lemon in the water.
Mary: It's weird to look at a menu and not have to wonder what Sheldon won't eat.
George: It got easier when he printed that card for my wallet.
Mary: Still don't know where he got that laminated.

Mary: What's going on with John?
Meemaw: Not much. We write letters back and forth.
Mary: That's romantic.
Meemaw: Romantic if he were off to war, not in a mental hospital.
Mary: Well, he's at war with his inner demons.

Mary: We need to have a talk. Georgie, get in here!
Missy: Are we in trouble?
Mary: No one's in trouble.
Georgie: What's going on?
George: Have a seat.
Mary: You're also getting talked to. Sit.

Mary: Okay, Dr. Sturgis will be joining us for dinner.
Sheldon: Hot darn.
Missy: That guy's back?
Georgie: I thought he was in the nut house.
Mary: We do not call it that.
Georgie: That's what Dad calls it.
Mary: And that's why I made him sit.

Mary: We need to make sure that Dr. Sturgis feels comfortable.
George: And how are we supposed to do that?
Mary: For starters, do not bring up his time in the hospital.
Missy: What if he brings it up? You let the grown-ups handle that.
George: In this scenario, am I one of the grown-ups?
Mary: No.
George: Great.

Georgie: If you're gonna do this, let me give you some pointers.
Sheldon: You've done this before?
Georgie: Tell him.
Missy: Oh, he's the master. He coached me through my last two sore throats.
Sheldon: I slept on the couch during those.
Missy: I know.

Caroline: Would you like to try it on?
Mary: Oh, no. I'm not here for me. Just helping a friend.
Caroline: Oh, too bad. That dress would be stunning on you.
Mary: Oh, I would look like a princess.

Dr. Bowers: Okay, Sheldon, you ready?
Sheldon: Not really.
Dr. Bowers: Yeah, that makes two of us. Why don't you guys come on back?
Mary: You know what? I'm just gonna stay here. Um, you don't need me getting in your way.
Dr. Bowers: Oh, it's no trouble at all. Come on.
Mary: I've got my crochet.
Dr. Bowers: You're coming.
Mary: Fine.

George: What do you got going on today?
Mary: Ooh, laundry, grocery shopping, vacuuming. I might go nuts and dust the picture frames.
George: Well, nice. Everybody's doing something they love.
