Quote from Frank in Thank You Notes

Frank: You can't overthrow Marie. Besides, anytime you cut the head off something, the body still runs around by itself, all crazed-like.
Ray: I know. I know! That's why I'm asking you. I don't know what to do. What do you think we should do?
Marie: I'm not sure yet.
Ray: Agh! What the- You heard everything?
Marie: I heard enough.
Ray: Did you know she was back there?
Frank: Yes.
Ray: Well, why did you let me go on for?
Frank: I want my shrapnel back.
Ray: All right. Listen, Ma, you've got to understand... [runs out]

Quote from Debra

Amy: I didn't mean to argue. It's thank-you notes. It's so stupid.
Debra: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Look at me. You were great. Do you hear me? You can't let her get away with anything.
Amy: But she's so upset. I don't want a bad relationship with her. I should go apologize.
Debra: No, no, no, no, no. Hey, listen, that is exactly what she is waiting for, for you to go over there and say you'll write those thank-you notes. You have got to be strong. She is testing you. Trust me, what she just pulled here, that's her big weapon: the guilt bomb. And it doesn't help that all the men in her family are scared to death of her. Whenever she comes up against somebody with a backbone who might actually confront her, she's completely threatened and she gets her claws out. And so she has been allowed to rule this way, unopposed, for decades. Listen, Amy I have been waiting for you. This is a critical time. Even though this is a tough regime to topple, with you in the family, now we have a shot... you and me together, to end all the suffering. Do you hear me? We can do it!

Quote from Frank

Marie: What is it?
Frank: It's a piece of shrapnel.
Amy: It's from World War ll in Anzio.
Frank: It's wonderful. I'll bet it's from the ass of some Kraut.

Quote from Marie

Amy: Well, you know, we just got back from our honeymoon, and...
Marie: Oh.
Amy: What?
Marie: Nothing. I just thought you were gonna be honest with me. I mean, to tell the truth, you two have been home for a day and a half now, haven't you?
Robert: Well, we just wanted to unwind for a little bit.
Marie: But you knew I was waiting. No call or anything. I was so worried, I called the airlines. I thought, "What if there was a plane crash?" But when they said, of course, there was none, I have to tell you, I was a little upset.
