Quote from Emily in The Prodigal Daughter Returns
Emily: Sumatra, please get my granddaughter a plate. Rory: That's all right, Sumatra. I'm just going up to my room. Emily: Sumatra, please tell my granddaughter that all food is to be consumed in the dining room. Rory: Sumatra, please tell my grandmother, what? Emily: That's the rule in this house, Rory. Rory: I'm late for community service. Emily: Food is meant to be consumed in the dining room or not at all. Rory: What about when you take your tea outside on the patio? Emily: That is in the afternoon. This is the morning, and in the morning you eat at the table in the dining room. Rory: Fine. I'll be back this afternoon. Emily: [to Sumatra] Well, if you expect that muffin to fly back to the kitchen, you'd better go get it a cape.
