Dorothy Quote #483

Quote from Dorothy in A Visit from Little Sven

Dorothy: You know, I once made the same mistake myself. I was dating a guy my parents could not stand. He used to come over to the house during Sunday dinner, help himself to some food, take it into the living room, turn on one of those radio countdown shows and belch to the music. Well, finally my mother told me that I just had to break it off and of course I knew she was right. So I rehearsed my speech and I made arrangements to meet him at a coffee shop. Oh, I got there five minutes early and caught him necking with a waitress.
Blanche: Oh!
Rose: Well, that must've made it easier.
Dorothy: No, I still could not do it.
Blanche: Dorothy, how long had you been together with this guy?
Dorothy: Thirty-eight years.
Rose: That was Stan?
Dorothy: And you know, to this day, he can belch out the chorus to Sweet Georgia Brown on one Dr. Pepper.

Quote from Dorothy

Blanche: Well, maybe I made a mistake, but I don't think I did anything so terrible.
Rose: Well, I do! There is a sweet, innocent man whose heart is gonna get broken because you decided to use him in one of your petty games.
Blanche: Rose, that's only one side of it. Look at the other side. He did get to kiss me.
Dorothy: Big deal. More people get to kiss you than the Pope's ring.

Quote from Rose

Rose: Oh, good. I got caught up at work and I barely had time to pick up a cake. I wanted to make Sven feel welcome.
Blanche: Rose, that cake is from the "Get it While it's Hot" erotic bake shop.
Dorothy: Whoa!
Blanche: Why, Rose Nylund! Why, that cake is in the shape...
Dorothy: Blanche, we know what it is.
Rose: I thought it was in the shape of Florida.

Quote from Rose

Rose: On Saturday he's flying back to St. Olaf to meet his fiancée.
Blanche: Oh, she went all alone?
Rose: No, he's never met her. It's an arranged marriage. See, little Sven's father, we call him Big Sven, left the old country two years ago and settled in St. Olaf. Then he sent for the rest of his family. First he brought his father over. We call him "Big Sven," too.
Blanche: Well, doesn't that get confusing, having two Big Svens?
Rose: There aren't, Blanche. There's Big Sven and Big Sven II. Like Jaws and Jaws II.
Dorothy: Rose, are any of your relatives named Psycho and Psycho II?
