‘One Flew Out of the Cuckoo's Nest’

Season 7, Episode 24 -  Aired May 9, 1992

After Blanche talks an unwilling Dorothy into going on a date with her equally reluctant uncle Lucas (Leslie Nielsen), they get their own back on Blanche by pretending to be engaged. After their joke proposal turns sincere, the girls must confront a future where newly-wed Dorothy moves to Atlanta.

Quote from Dorothy

Blanche: Well, now to be honest, it is a little difficult for me. I mean, everything happened so fast. My God, you and Lucas probably haven't even slept together yet.
Dorothy: Blanche, don't be ridiculous. I mean, I know he's your uncle, but you have to realize that we're both adults and capable of a caring, warm relationship.
Rose: How was the sex?
Dorothy: So good we named it!

Driver? Driver, you're headed for the expressway. Why don't you turn around? Driver. Driver, stop. Driver, I said stop! Driver, who the hell do you think you are? [Stanley driver lowers the partition, removes his hat and turns around]

Sophia: [inner monologue] Such a beautiful bride, such a lovely church. Such a long walk. Oh, God, my hamstring. I've blown out my hamstring. No, no. I'm okay.

Quote from Dorothy

Dorothy: [inner monologue] Oh, and there's Lucas. So handsome. So strong. And he's right here with me. Lucas, you can probably hear every word I'm thinking.
Lucas: [inner monologue] Yes, Dorothy, I can.
Reverend: Remember, "ESP." Energy! Smile! Personality! They like me!
