Quote from Meemaw
Mary: Is Dale here?
Meemaw: Yeah, what's up?
Mary: I would like to have a word with him.
Meemaw: Better him than me. Have at it. [Mary enters] Dale, Mary coming in hot!
Quote from Dale
Mary: Did you tell Georgie to drop out of school?
Dale: What? No.
Mary: Well, he did, and you had something to do with it.
Dale: Well, no, he was just complaining about school and I told him I dropped out.
Mary: Dale, you know that he looks up to you.
Dale: He does, doesn't he?
Mary: Which is why you need to tell him that he is making a big mistake.
Dale: Oh, I don't think I can do that.
Mary: Why not?
Dale: Well, I don't believe he is.
Mary: How could you say that?
Dale: I did it, worked out fine.
Quote from Mary
George: She really took his side?
Mary: I don't want to talk about that.
Meemaw: I thought you two had date night.
Mary: I don't want to talk about that, either.
Sheldon: Why isn't Georgie eating with us?
George: Let's talk about anything else.
Quote from Mary
Missy: If Georgie's kicked out, can I have his room?
Mary: We are not kicking Georgie out.
George: You want to start this up again? Or can we just be mad at your mom and Dale?
Sheldon: And Georgie.
George: Thank you. And Georgie.
Mary: Let's just eat.
Quote from George Jr.
Jana: So I'm datin' a dropout?
Georgie: No, you're datin' a guy with a full-time job.
Jana: And your parents are okay with this?
Georgie: They'll come around. By the way, can I crash at your place?
Jana: No! My father already doesn't think you're good enough for me. And I don't want him to know he's right.
Georgie: He's not right!
Jana: He might be a little right.
Quote from George Jr.
Georgie: I thought you'd be more supportive.
Jana: And I thought we were gonna be seniors together. Homecoming court, prom king and queen. Voted most likely to stay together forever.
Georgie: We can still stay together.
Jana: They can't vote for you if you're not a senior! [sighs] I don't think this is gonna work out.
Georgie: You're breakin' up with me?
Jana: Yeah.
Georgie: You're serious?
Jana: I feel like I don't have a choice.
Georgie: [sighs] Fine, as a workin' man I shouldn't be dating a girl in high school anyway... it's immature.
Jana: Just take me home.
Georgie: 'Cause it's a school night? How cute. [awkward silence] Take me back.
Jana: No.
Georgie: Dang it.
Quote from Meemaw
Georgie: What are you doin' here?
George: What are you doin' here?
Georgie: I was hopin' to stay here tonight.
George: Well, you can't.
Georgie: This ain't your house.
George: It ain't yours, either.
Meemaw: It's my house, and I get to say who stays and who goes.
Dale: Okay, well, I'll be going.
Meemaw: Oh, you're staying. [to George] You can go.
Dale: Lucky.
Quote from Missy
Missy: Not a problem if I marry a rich guy.
Mary: You should marry someone for love.
Sheldon: You married Dad for love and there's a lot of bickering.
Missy: That's not true.
Mary: Thank you.
Missy: She married him 'cause she was pregnant.
Mary: I can finish these up on my own.
Missy: Good, I have a date with Fresh Prince, who by the way is so rich.
Quote from Dale
Georgie: One night here is fine. I'll be workin' more hours now so I'll be able to get my own place soon.
Dale: Yeah, about that. I can't let you work full-time at the store.
Georgie: What? Why not?
Dale: Well, your parents are pretty upset. I'm not gonna get in the middle of that.
Georgie: I'll just get a job somewhere else.
Dale: That's your business.
Quote from Dale
Meemaw: [to John] Here's the deal... you get one night here, then you're out.
Georgie: And don't ask for cookies. She is in no mood.
Dale: Well... You know who's at my place? No one.
Meemaw: I think I should stay here and keep an eye on these two.
Dale: It wasn't an invite. Just something I was looking forward to. Later.
Dr. John Sturgis: Bye. Did he get a haircut? It looks really nice.
