Quote from Frank
Frank: Hey, Robert. You got any idea why Ray and I just got our grapes crushed by the broads?
Robert: Okay, take it easy. Some things might have been said in passing that that possibly could have been misconstrued.
Ray: You sold us out, man!
Frank: You're a rat! We had something good going, and you ruined it!
Robert: Okay, hold on, hold on. You didn't have "something good" going.
Frank: Yes, we did! For once, I was enjoying my marriage!
Quote from Robert
Robert: Let me tell you something. You two got what you deserved, I don't care that you're mad at me. I'm sorry that your putter got bent, Raymond, And I'm sorry Ma's not hanging off the roof with 50 feet of cable and a ratchet! But, by God, I will do whatever it takes to make this family whole!
Ray: I think you're the family hole.
Robert: Oh, yeah? How'd you like to live in a hole? Try it! Try it!
Quote from Marie
Robert: Ma! This was your chance! What did we just talk about in there? What about the Big Bed?
Marie: All your talk about the Big Bed, why don't you tell that to Debra?
Robert: I did!
Marie: You did? You told her the same thing you told me?
Robert: I was just trying to to show-
Marie: Oh, enough. You're a double agent.
Robert: What are you talking about?
Ray: Yeah, that's exactly what a double agent would say.
Marie: You didn't have enough faith in me to know that I would do the right thing, so you went to her, too.
Robert: You didn't do the right thing!
Marie: That's hardly the point!
Quote from Ray
Ray: What he did is much worse than what we did, right, Ma?
Marie: Shut up, Raymond.
Ray: We say it all the time now?
