Norm: Carla, for what it's worth, Cliff and I took alley-oop there to the drive-in over the weekend. All he could talk about was you. Miss Carla this. Miss Carla that.
Carla: Listen, listen, listen. I am tired of hearing all of you defending that walking hairball. You want to see why I don't fall for his act?
Sam: Yeah, if you don't mind, I would.
Carla: OK, watch. [to Sam] What's the extension in your office? Uh, 2... 21. [on the phone as Loretta] Nick? This is Loretta. I've been getting some of those old feelings again, daddy. I think we should get together and talk. I'm at the Baldwin Hotel. How soon do you think you get over?
Nick Tortelli: [runs out of Sam's office] I've got to get some cigarettes.
Carla: You don't smoke!
Nick Tortelli: I'm going to start. I heard good things. No. I'm not going to go. I'm not going to go. You know where I was going? Loretta called me and she wanted to talk to me. And I was about to go. Then you know what happened? I thought of you and I came to my senses. [all aw]
Sam: You know, that wasn't Loretta, Nick. That was Carla on the phone.
Nick Tortelli: That was you?
Carla: [as Loretta] Yes, daddy.
Nick Tortelli: That was a test? And I passed with flying colors. Now do you believe me?
