Quote from Erica

Adult Adam: [v.o.] As Barry was running from a violent collision, my mom was dealing with a crash of her own.
Beverly: Nothing! Who wants to know?!
Erica: You're acting strange.
Beverly: Oh.
Erica: And are you wearing the same clothes from yesterday?
Beverly: Gosh, you're loud. Why is it so bright in here?
Erica: Were you out all night, young lady? I always wondered what this side of it felt like, and it turns out it's as boring as I thought.

Quote from Beverly

Beverly: If you must know, I was up all night closing deals. Then I did two exercise videos and read The Thorn Birds.
Erica: That sounds like a lot.
Beverly: Not when you have these French wonder vitamins. They are... [smooches] superbe.
Erica: Does that mean amphetamines? This article in today's paper says that your beauty company uses speed in its diet pills.
Beverly: Oh, that's ridiculous. I feel amazing, and I've barely eaten or slept in three days.

Quote from Beverly

Essie Karp: Hi! Is your mom in? We just need more body-shaping supplements. You know, for our health?
Virginia Kremp: Uh, Beverly, your loyal customers are here. I got cash from the register at the flower shop.
Beverly: Yeah, ladies, I don't think this is a good idea.
Virginia Kremp: Give me more pills now, please!
[Erica slams the door]
Erica: Are you happy now?
Beverly: I just wanted to make some extra dough, not turn my gal pals into druggies! They do look amazing, though.
Erica: Mom, when did making money become so important?
Beverly: I don't know. Maybe when we saw Jane Bales at Gimbels.
Erica: So, this is all because you're jealous that she shops in the front of the store?
Beverly: I'm not jealous that she pays retail. I'm jealous that she's got her own money. I'm jealous that she doesn't have to worry about spending her husband's. And I'm jealous of the way you were looking at her.
Erica: Mom.
Beverly: Exactly. I'm a mom. More than anything, a mom who wants to be a role model for her daughter. Instead, I'm just a drug dealer. [knock on door]
Virginia Kremp: Open the freakin' door now!

Quote from Beverly

Adult Adam: [v.o.] Sure, it can be hard to find common ground with the people we love.
Beverly: Now, it's not visible to the naked eye, but this skirt has irregular stitching.
Deb: I'll get the manager.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] But sometimes the things that drive us nuts...
Beverly: You embarrassed of me?
Erica: Always.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] ...are also what makes them special.

Quote from Murray

Barry: [on the phone] What ya doin' today?
Murray: Whole lot of nothin'.
Barry: Maybe I'll stop by. We can do nothin' together.
Murray: Sounds good to me.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] In the end, if we tackle life's biggest challenges together, there's no way we can lose.
