Blanche: Just exactly what is this surprise, Daddy?
Big Daddy: Don't get too excited, but we're planning on walking down the aisle.
Blanche: [screams]
Big Daddy: Is she happy or sad? I'm not sure.
Rose: I don't know. She's never made that sound before.
Dorothy: I once heard her make that sound and I assure you she was happy.

Dorothy: Please come in. You must be from the catering company.
Margaret Spencer: Actually, I'm from Atlanta. I'm Margaret Spencer.
Dorothy: Whoa.
Rose: What a coincidence. Blanche's father is marrying a Margaret Spencer from Atlanta. Only she's much older. I think. What do you think, Dorothy?
Dorothy: Whoa.
Blanche: [entering] I'm just getting so excited about Big Daddy's wedding. Hello there. I'm Blanche Devereaux.
Dorothy: Blanche, this is... I'd like you to meet... Say hello to Big Mommy.

Margaret Spencer: Well, I'm sorry I'm so early. Traffic wasn't what I expected.
Blanche: Well, the important thing is, you got here safely.
Margaret Spencer: It's so good to finally meet you, Blanche. Your father's told me so much about you.
Blanche: I wish I could say the same.
Dorothy: Margaret, please, sit down.
Blanche: Maybe we ought to get her a booster seat.
Dorothy: Uh, can I get you a drink?
Blanche: How about chocolate milk?

Rose: Lovely city. Have they rebuilt it since it burned down in Gone With The Wind?

Big Daddy: What do you think of Maggie?
Blanche: Does it matter?
Big Daddy: Of course it does.
Blanche: All right, then. I'll be frank. I think she's a gold-diggin' hussy.
Big Daddy: You watch your tongue, missy.
Blanche: I'm sorry, Daddy, but that woman is much too young for you. Why, she's practically my age.

Sophia: Why are you not working at the piano?
Dorothy: We're blocked.
Sophia: I've been having good luck with Tank, immediately followed by a granola bar.

Dorothy: Why are you getting so upset? Blanche, you see older men with younger women all the time. I mean, it's very common. Look at John Derek and Ursula Andress. John Derek and Linda Evans. John Derek and Bo Derek. You know, maybe it's not so common. Maybe it's just one guy who gets around.

Blanche: I bet if older men knew how ridiculous they look with younger women, they wouldn't do it.
Dorothy: Well, they don't think they look ridiculous. You know, I was in a restaurant the other night, a man of about 60 walked in wearing four gold chains and his shirt open to his navel. Well, I thought that people were staring at the scars to his bypass surgery. They were staring at the 22-year-old blonde on his arm. And honey, he was not embarrassed, he was proud.

Rose: Well, girls, love has no definition, no boundaries. Age has nothing to do with it. Sometimes two people who seem to have the least in common turn out to be the most in love. That was certainly the case with OIlie Stettlenmeier and Molly-Jane Doe.
Blanche: OIlie and Molly? Must we take yet another trip to Petticoat Junction?
Rose: OIlie was the mayor and our town's most respected citizen. He was also Artistic Director at the St. Olaf Community Playhouse. A lot of people don't know this, but the family drama "Hey, That's My Tractor", got its start right there.
Dorothy: Wasn't the musical version called "Hey, Hey, That's My Tractor"?
Rose: Anyway, during the auditions, the first woman who walked through that door was Molly-Jane Doe, the town manicurist. For five extra dollars, she'd buff more than your nails.
Blanche: Five dollars?
Dorothy: It was during the Depression.
Sophia: Hey, in Italy, for five dollars you got a woman, a manicure, a cappuccino and a box of cookies for your wife. A fact. Use it as you wish.
Rose: Anyway, it was love at first sight. And nobody in town could believe that this man, who had lived for 52 years with his mother, would fall head over heels in love with the town squeeze. But he did. And the next day they were married and they went on to live happily together for 25 years.
Blanche: And what in hell does any of this have to do with my father?
Rose: Well, the point is nobody knows why two people fall in love, and it's really nobody's business.

Dorothy & Rose: [singing] I have to say what I feel Miami has so much appeal A great place to get a seafood meal Miami Miami, Miami You've got style Blue skies, sunshine White sand by the mile When you live in this town Each day is sublime The coldest of winters Are warm and divine Miami, Miami You've got style Blue skies, sunshine White sand by the mile There's more clubs and nightclubs All within reach Dance the samba till morning Then lie on the beach Each view is a postcard Each day a great time [Blanche and Sophia join in] The cream of the crop It's the top of the line Miami, Miami You've got style Blue skies, sunshine White sand by the mile Miami You've got style.
