‘Debra Makes Something Good’
Season 4, Episode 18 - Aired February 28, 2000
Ray is surprised by how good Debra's braciole is, but that doesn't stop him making jokes about her cooking.
Quote from Marie
Debra: Marie, I'm sorry. I didn't know it was your special dish.
Marie: Don't you have other household things that you need to take care of like... Like the laundry? Raymond, give me those pants. I'll wash them.
Ray: It's okay, Mom.
Marie: No, I'm washing those pants for you, damn it!
Ray: Mom.
Marie: Take off your pants!
Quote from Marie
Debra: What do you want me to say, Marie? "I'm sorry I made braciole"? This is insane! I never would have made the stuff if I thought it was gonna turn everybody's world upside-down.
Robert: [enters] Hey, Ma, I have nothing to eat over there. You said you were making me dinner.
Marie: I don't cook anymore.
Quote from Ray
Debra: Robert, how much does Ray make fun of my cooking? Don't look at him. Don't you look at him, Robert!
Robert: He's not wearing pants.
Debra: Answer me! I know he makes fun of my cooking. I want to know how much of it goes on behind my back.
Marie: He makes fun of it all the time, dear.
Ray: That is not true! That's not completely true, Debra! I love your braciole and I am not lying today.
Quote from Marie
Marie: Oh, Robert, come on. Take off those pants.
Robert: What?
Marie: Take them off!
Robert: Well, what do you-
Marie: I get those pants!
Quote from Frank
Marie: Are you coming or not?
Frank: Of course I'm coming. You're my wife. I belong with you. I'm coming. [to Debra] I'll call you.
Quote from Debra
Debra: Why do you have to make wife jokes? I don't do that. I don't make husband jokes.
Ray: Well, are you telling me that you don't go out with Amy and Linda and make fun of all the stupid things I do, you know? You don't talk about the way my lips move when I read? Or you caught me biting my toenail that one time? Or- Or- Or that-
Debra: No, I don't. In fact, I try to spin it in the other direction. Linda thinks you have a master's.
Ray: Master's?
Debra: Degree. Master's degree, Ray.
Quote from Ray
Debra: I don't care what the other guys think about me. I care what you think about me.
Ray: I'm not gonna make jokes anymore.
Debra: Thank you.
Ray: Are you still gonna cook for me?
Debra: Yes.
Ray: You wanna take your pants off?
Debra: No.
Ray: Okay, then can I have more sauce?
