Dick Quote #569

Quote from Dick in Fun with Dick and Janet: Part 1

[dream sequence:]
Minister: Now, then, if anyone objects to this sacred union, speak now or forever hold your peace.
[An ominous chord plays. A flash of light reveals Sally, Harry and Tommy, who look dirty and disheveled]
Sally: I object.
Harry: I think that's my arm.
Sally: Huh? Oh, sorry.
Dick: My family! You made it! I was afraid I was never going to see you again. You look well. You got some color.
Tommy: Could have used you at the wheel, Dick.
Sally: Oh, but no. You had to stay and marry that Earth chick.
Harry: Yeah. With tragic results for us.
Dick: I- I tried to contact you. I tried everything. I even built a transmitter, but then I spilled grape soda on it and the whole thing shorted out. However, I did manage to have a brief conversation with the captain of a shrimp boat.
Sally: So that's supposed to make it better?

Quote from Sally

Don: Sally, where have you been? I thought we had a good thing going.
Sally: Oh, Don, we did. I just- I needed to take a little time, you know, to think things over. I just went on one those spontaneous trips, you know, to, um, uh...
Tommy: Sea World.
Harry: Turkey.
Sally: Yeah, the Sea World in Turkey.
Don: Funny, I didn't know there was a sea world in turkey.
Sally: There's Sea Worlds everywhere, Don. You just got to know where to look.

Quote from Harry

Don: As if there could be intelligent life out there. What a load of hooey.
Harry: Hooey?
Don: Oh, yeah. So much bunk, you can make a bed out of it.
Harry: Oh, it's bunk, is it?
Don: Any moron with half a brain knows that.
Harry: Half a brain. I see. Well, you know, Don, it's a big universe out there, and not just small big. Big big. Why, in the Belletrix System alone there are over 44 trillion planets.
Don: 44 trillion? That's the biggest number I've ever heard in my life.
Harry: Yeah. So don't you think on just one of those planets that there might be some species smarter than you that would be capable of building a spaceship?
Don: Statistically, I suppose. Maybe there is more to this than meets the eye. Thank you, Harry.
Harry: No. Thank you, Don.

Quote from Mary

Dick: Oh, no, Mary, I had another one of those horrible dreams!
Mary: Well, what happened?
Dick: We were getting married.
Mary: Thank you.
Dick: No, no. No, that was the good part, but then my family showed up.
Mary: Oh. Don't tell me. They objected.
Dick: Well they had issues.
Mary: It's all right. I've prepared a short speech just in case they did. It's just basically two words and one of them's "off."
