Diane: Carla, even though we have our differences, and we're frequently at odds, there's one thing we very much have in common: We both like Sam. And I'm concerned about him. I think he might get hurt by this liaison with Janet Eldridge.
Carla: Yeah, you're right. He's having a lot of laughs and a hot time with a beautiful woman. The man is a glutton for punishment.
Diane: This is no romp, Carla. It's more serious than that. And the worst part is that she's just using him. I mean, it all adds up. He's an outstanding sports figure, he's attractive, and in this town it doesn't hurt that he's Irish. He's a vote getter.
Carla: So what?
Diane: So when the election's over, it's "So long, Sam." And I think he's really going to be hurt by this. That's "so what."
Carla: You are full of beans. Women come and women go in Sam's life. He's just having a few grins, and I can prove it.

Carla: You know, Sammy, I've been thinking. You have got a great set-up with this Eldridge babe. You're going to all these high-toned parties, meeting a lot of fancy people, driving around in big cars. And the best thing is, you are getting to do to a politician what they've been doing to us for years. [laughs]
Sam: You know, Carla, sometimes you got a lousy sense of humor.
Carla: Sorry.
Diane: "A few grins," Carla?

Woody: Look at the size of that limo. Hey, Your Excellence? Does it have a TV?
Janet Eldridge: Yes, it does. Go and take a look at it if you want.
Woody: Oh, hot dog! [runs out]
Cliff: Oh, boy, the exuberance of youth.
Norm: Yeah. Wide-eyed and innocent. Well, I guess those days are long gone for you and me.
Cliff: Yeah, yeah. [both run to the limo]

Diane: I'm sorry to interrupt, Councillor Eldridge.
Janet Eldridge: Please, call me Janet. What can I do for you? It's Diane, isn't it?
Diane: Yes. I'm speaking on behalf of everyone here at Cheers, and I would just like to say that we're all very fond of Sam. And, frankly, we're a little worried about him. We wouldn't like to see him get hurt.
Janet Eldridge: What are you getting at?
Diane: Janet, I've made no secret of my opposition to you politically, but let's retract our claws for the moment, shall we? Let's stop hissing at each other.
Janet Eldridge: Do you have a problem with cats?
Diane: No.
