Hal: Hey. Enough is enough. Look, I want you to go out and buy a new washer and dryer.
Lois: You know we can't afford that.
Hal: Look, I wasn't going to say anything yet, but you know all those crappy stock options I've been getting instead of bonuses? Well, I think they're finally going to be worth something. There have been people flying back and forth to New York and all these closed-door meetings. I think that merger is finally going through.
Lois: Oh, Hal, that would be wonderful.
