Sophia Quote #533
Quote from Sophia in Son-in-Law Dearest
Sophia: Anyway, it was the night of your first anniversary. You showed up at my house at two o'clock in the morning, crying and carrying on. You looked like hell. You told me you had cooked an anniversary dinner for Stan. He came home late, he didn't have a gift and there was lipstick on his shirt. You kept saying to me, "Ma, what should I do?" Remember what I told you?
Dorothy: Yeah.
Sophia: Thank God. What was it? I forgot.
Dorothy: You said that if you could erase this one day, is this still the man you want to spend the rest of your life with?
Sophia: And you said yes. And I thought to myself, "Idiot", but I kept my mouth shut. I knew this was a decision you had to make.
Dorothy: So you're saying I should stay out of this mess between Kate and Dennis?
Sophia: I said it. I used it in a story. What do you want me to do, embroider it on your underwear? Just stay out of it!
Dorothy: I don't know if I can do that.
Sophia: Then you're gonna lose Kate. And someday, someday Stan is gonna call you up and tell you you have a grandchild who you're never gonna see.
Dorothy: Good night, Ma.
Sophia: Not tonight, Cesar. I'm not in the mood anymore.

Quote from Rose
Rose: I understand what you went through, Dorothy. I remember how I felt when I thought Charlie was cheating on me.
Blanche: Charlie?
Rose: We'd been married for 18 years. And up until then, everything had seemed so perfect. Then one night it happened. He came home, had dinner, walked upstairs and went to sleep. I went in the bathroom and cried my eyes out.
Dorothy: Rose, I don't want to encourage long stories, but it seems in this story you left out the...
Blanche: The story.
Dorothy: That's the word.
Rose: Well, Charlie went right to sleep. We didn't, well, you know...
Blanche: Oh, and he'd promised?
Rose: No! It's just that that was the first time that had ever happened in 18 years of married life.
Blanche: Get out of here.
Dorothy: You mean to say that every night without fail for 18 years, you and Charlie...
Rose: Yeah, of course. Right after dinner.
Blanche: Well, no wonder you never heard of I Love Lucy.
Rose: Of course, as it turned out, I was just overreacting. I mean, it was a freak, one-time thing. By the next morning, everything was back to normal.
Blanche: By morning? You mean to tell me, that every morning?
Rose: Charlie said that's why we didn't have headaches and we both had really shiny hair.
Blanche: Listen, Rose, no offense, but I find that story a little hard to believe. You don't even like to talk about sex.
Rose: Well, it's been my experience that people who talk about it a lot don't do it very often.
Blanche: Coffee, anyone?
Quote from Dorothy
Stan: I'll be honest with you Kate, I never liked him. From the moment that worm slithered into your live, I knew he was no good. What kind of a man has so little respect for the institution of marriage that he can cheat on a wonderful woman and jump into bed with the first available bimbo who comes along?
Dorothy: But enough about you, Stanley.
Quote from Rose
Blanche: Oh, that last episode of I Love Lucy was hilarious.
Rose: It sure was. I never realized you could have that much fun staying up all night.
Blanche: Oh? Not even with Charlie?
Rose: Oh, we never stayed up all night. Just seven till midnight every night and and five to seven every morning. And, of course, till noon on Sundays.
Blanche: Good Lord, no wonder you still mourn that man.
