Bree: Andrew, you remember
Reverend Sikes, don't you?
Andrew Van De Kamp: Oh, come on.
Bree: Um,
Reverend, why don't you, um, have seat, and I will get some refreshments?
[the
reverend sits down at the dining room table where Andrew is sitting and Rex is
pouring wine]
Reverend Sikes: Ah. So, Andrew, it's been a long time.
Andrew
Van De Kamp: Yes. Yes, it has.
Bree: Would you like some water? I have flat
or bubbly.
Reverend Sikes: Oh, bubbly, please. So, your mother tells me you've
started having some sexual desires for other boys.
[Andrew stares at his mother
who smiles back lovingly. Andrew looks at the wine]
Andrew Van De Kamp: I
don't suppose I could get some of that.
Rex Van De Kamp: I'm gonna need every
drop.
Reverend
Sikes: And over the years, we've had so many young people come to our ministry
hating themselves for their unnatural desires, and within a few months, they've
found an inner peace and a tranquility that is nothing short of miraculous.
Bree
Van De Kamp: Oh.
[Bree reaches over and touches Andrew's arm. Andrew smiles
back at his mother]
Reverend Sikes: And all it takes is a little faith and
a desire to change.
Andrew Van De Kamp: I'm sorry, but I, I really don't want
to talk about my sex life.
Bree Van De Kamp: Well, that's just too bad, because
this needs to be discussed.
Reverend Sikes: Bree, please, let the boy speak.
Go on.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Well, I appreciate your offer to help. I do. But
I don't hate myself. So, I'm good.
Reverend Sikes: Son, I know what it's like
to be a teenager. It's a very confusing time.
Andrew Van De Kamp: I'm not
confused. I know exactly who I am.
Bree
Van De Kamp: Reverend, I don't mean to criticize, but it sounds like you're giving
up.
Reverend Sikes: Well, we can't force him on the path of righteousness.
He himself has got to want to make the journey.
Bree Van De Kamp: Well, then,
what do we do, just stand by while he starts dating boys?
[to Andrew]
Bree
Van De Kamp: And by the way, the correct word is not "gay." It's "sodomy."
Rex Van De Kamp: We're in the middle of dinner.
Bree Van De Kamp: So?
Rex Van De Kamp: So, can you at least wait until desert before calling our
son a sodomite?
Bree Van De Kamp: How you can sit there and be so casual is
beyond me.
Rex Van De Kamp: For starters, I knew this dinner was a bad idea
the moment you suggested it.
Bree Van De Kamp: Well, at least I'm trying to
be pro-active!
Reverend Sikes: Please, there's no need to get upset.
Bree
Van De Kamp: I am upset because there is a problem here and no-one seems to notice
it but me.
Rex Van De Kamp: As far as I'm concerned, if Andrew is happy with
who he is, then it is our job to support him!
[brief silence]
Bree Van
De Kamp: [to Andrew] Your father is into S&M.
Rex Van De Kamp: Bree!
Bree
Van De Kamp: He makes me beat him with a riding crop and I let him. It's no wonder
you're perverted. Look who your parents are.
[Bree gets up and leaves]
Rex
Van De Kamp: Excuse me.
[Rex leaves too]
Andrew Van De Kamp: [to Reverend
Sikes] What a fun night. You know, we should really do this again sometime.

Housewives: My Heart Belongs to Daddy (#2.4)" (2005)
[George has dinner
with the Van De Kamps]
Andrew Van De Kamp: So, George, can I ask you a question?
And it's kind of personal.
George Williams: Sure.
Andrew Van De Kamp:
Have you ever actually been with a woman?
George Williams: [chuckling] Excuse
me?
Andrew Van De Kamp: Well, let's be honest. I think it's obvious by the
way that you talk and act that you're not a player, so I was just curious to find
out if you had ever actually gotten in the game.
George Williams: My experience
with women is none of your business.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Oh, I think it is.
I mean, you're dating my mom. And we both know that at your age, dating's a little
more than just holding hands.
George Williams: We're not dating exactly.
Andrew
Van De Kamp: Oh, sure you are. And you know what? I think it's great. But I wanna
make sure my mom's happy, you know, and it would really set my mind at ease to
know that she's with a guy that knows how to please a lady.
George Williams:
This is inappropriate.
Andrew Van De Kamp: You know, my parents had a great
sex life. Man, I heard 'em through the wall of my bedroom once.
George Williams:
Please shut up.
Andrew Van De Kamp: You should've heard my mom, too. She had
this... this weird moan. It was kind of like, um...
[Andrew makes a moan that's
followed by an unh!]
Andrew Van De Kamp: Isn't that bizarre? That's the sound
my mom makes when she climaxes.
[a dumbfounded George looks at Andrew while
Bree and Danielle enter with cobblers]
Bree Van De Kamp: Okay, time for cobbler.
Sorry, one of the dessert plates doesn't match. I tried to replace it, but it's
Spode Florence. It's a rare pattern. It belonged to my grandmother. But hopefully
once you taste the dessert, you'll forget all about it.
George Williams: I'm
not hungry.
Bree Van De Kamp: George, you have to have this. It's absolutely
scrumptious.
[Bree takes a bite]
Bree Van De Kamp: Mmm. Mmm!
[George
looks from Bree to Andrew, who points to Bree and mouths "That's it."
George slams his fist and stands up]
George Williams: Go to your room!
Andrew Van De Kamp: Isn't that weird? That's the sound my mom makes when she climaxes!

Andrew Van De Kamp: Mom,
I'm gonna take these bowls to the kitchen...
Bree: Oh! thanks, dear.
Andrew
Van De Kamp: With you... What are you doing?
Bree: Oh, I'm trying to stay
out of the way of all the sparks that are flying...
Andrew Van De Kamp: Sparks?
The man is twice my age.
Bree: Yes, but he's also... he's got a great sense
of... OK, do you know how hard it is to get a good contractor?
Andrew Van
De Kamp: Oh my God.
Bree: And poor Walter just had his heart broken, so if
it takes you being nice to hime to have our house fixed...
Andrew Van De Kamp:
You're pimping me out for a new roof?
Bree: And windows... and I'm not pimping
you out, I'm simply asking you to show some kindness to a lonely man who happens
to be an excellent roofer.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Look, if by kindness you mean
sex...
Bree: Watch your mouth, I would never suggest that. You can raise a
man's hopes without satisfying them, I've done it all my life. Andrew, I have
got to get back into my house, and you're my only hope.
Andrew Van De Kamp:
Fine, for you I'll flirt, I'll flatter and I'll charm.
Bree: Bless you...
Andrew Van De Kamp: And in exchange... I expect a 60-inch flat-screen TV.
Bree: Fine. And if you can get him to come on time and under budget, I'll
throw in surround sound.

"Desperate
Housewives: Could I Leave You? (#2.17)" (2006)
Bree: Well, I'm still appalled
that you're helping my son with this ridiculous emancipation scheme, but you are
a guest in my house and guests get sandwiches.
Andrew Van De Kamp: You know,
if you'd let me go to his office, you wouldn't have to pretend to be nice to him.
Bree: Andrew, there may be a judge out there stupid enough to emancipate you,
but until you find him, I retain all my parental rights. One of which is to ground
your sorry behind until kingdom come. Mr. Bormanis, nice to see you again, and,
um, please don't get crumbs on my carpet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Desperate
Housewives: There Is No Other Way (#2.16)" (2006)
Bree: Perception is
reality, Andrew. And if people perceive me to have a drinking problem, then I
do. And I certainly don't want some idiotic judge using my hobby as an excuse
to make you rich. So I'm simply going to give up my wine and become a recovering
alcoholic.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Good plan, but it'll never work. See, I'll
bet you still end up coming to court hammered.
Bree: Oh, Andrew, you don't
think I love you enough to give up alcohol?
Andrew Van De Kamp: Look, I'm
seventeen, all right? So, you can only keep me here for another year. Why not
just let me go?
Bree: Because I'm not done with you yet. It's my job to teach
you and you are not half the man I know you can be.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Yeah,
well, I got news for you. This is as good as I'm gonna get.
Bree: If I really
thought that, I'd get a gun right now and kill us both.

Andrew Van De Kamp: Well,

Eleanor Mason: Bree!
Bree: Oh,
I slapped him once and he deserved it!
Andrew Van De Kamp: I just asked her
to stop drinking.
Henry Mason: You were drinking?
Eleanor Mason: She's
in A.A. Her sponsor has long hair.
Bree: Andrew, I find your concern ironic
given how tanked you were when you ran over our neighbor's mother with your car!
Eleanor Mason: Is she okay?!
Bree: She's dead!
Andrew Van De Kamp:
Well, mom watched as her boyfriend committed suicide. And he was the same guy
who killed dad!
Bree: Andrew falsely accused me of molestation...in a mall!

Paul Young: What

Mary Alice: You said they were pouring the concrete for
the pool to mould.
Paul Young: You can't be serious!
Mary Alice: They'll
never find her. We can put her in this.

they're sore. And doctor say...
Gabrielle: Oh cut it out Xiao-Mei the doctor
didn't say anything about rubbing your chubby stumps! Rub them yourself.
Xiao-Mei:
You treat me like dirt.
Gabrielle: Would you rather be living with Mr.Solis?
In a dingy, one bedroom apartment with no air conditioning and no cable? Huh?
No!... didn't think so.

I am "the" meanest person. You've been in this country a year, modify
your nouns, dammit!
Xiao-Mei: What "a" bitch.

wait for you to pop out that baby, cause when you do I'm putting you on the first
plane back to Shang Hi and you're gonna be on all fours and a rice patty before

Carlos: Oh, my god. Are
you trying to say that you don't want Deanna's baby because she's plain?
Gabrielle:
No, plain I can handle. Carlos, since that woman has walked into our house, the
clocks have stopped working.
Carlos: No one can predict what a child is gonna
look like. For all you know, her kid could end up winning beauty contests.
Gabrielle:
With her D.N.A., the only thing that kid's gonna be winning is best in show.
Eugene
Beale: Libby's a pole dancer in a strip club.
Gabrielle: Oh! Wow, that, that
sounds like interesting work.
Libby: You'd think so, but it gets old quickly.
My big dream is to become a choreographer.
Carlos: Really?
Libby: Yeah.
I made up this one move. It's called the serpent's tongue, and all the girls at
the club are doing it now. It's so cool. If I had a pole I could show you.
Carlos:
Well, we'll have to go down to the club and check that out. We'll make a night
of it.
Carlos:
That was our lawyer. Libby rejected us as parents.
Gabrielle: Why?
Gabrielle:
What? That's discrimination. It's illegal. We could have her arrested.
Carlos:
It's her baby. She can do whatever the hell she wants to with it. Damn it.
Gabrielle:
No! No, you don't just toss people aside because of the color of their skin.
Carlos:
We tossed those birth mothers aside because of their appearance.
Gabrielle:
Well, that's different.
Carlos: Why?
Gabrielle: Because I've read the
constitution and it does not protect ugly people.

her baby. We'll kiss whatever needs kissing.
Libby: What the hell are you
guys doing here?
Carlos: Ah, we brought you this gift and you said that you

you gotta go.

you can do is open it so we can bask in your happy expression.
Gabrielle:
We were supposed to have four weeks. She promised me the baby wasn't due for four
more weeks. We don't have anything! We don't, we don't have diapers, and we don't

Carlos: Okay. You ran away from home
fifteen years ago. Did you ever think to talk to her about the stuff that happened
between you and your step-dad?
Gabrielle: It wouldn't have done any good.
Carlos: How do you know that?
Gabrielle: Because she knew exactly what
was going on with Alejandro and she chose to look the other way.
Carlos: But
you never even gave her a chance to step up. You just ran away from home.

Lynette Scavo:
Well, Tom, why don't you pitch him the other idea you came up with last night.
You know the one where people love bacon so much they want to keep it a secret.
Ed Ferrara: What like a secret underground society of bacon eaters?
Tom
Scavo: More like my college fraternity, where, you know, everybody wanted in,
but we only took the coolest guys.

Bree: I know you think I'm kidding myself,
but I'm not. I'm nothing like you people. I just don't have a compulsive personality.
Bree: Well, I'm
still appalled that you're helping my son with this ridiculous emancipation scheme,
but you are a guest in my house and guests get sandwiches.
Andrew Van De Kamp:
You know, if you'd let me go to his office, you wouldn't have to pretend to be
nice to him.
Bree: Andrew, there may be a judge out there stupid enough to
emancipate you, but until you find him, I retain all my parental rights. One of
which is to ground your sorry behind until kingdom come. Mr. Bormanis, nice to
see you again, and, um, please don't get crumbs on my carpet.
Bree:
Tonight was a very unusual situation. I wish you could've known me when Rex was
alive and my kids were young and everything was the way it was supposed to be.

Dr. Goldfine: I'm sure Freud would not approve of this.
Bree: Oh, who
cares what he thinks. I took psychology in college. We learned all about Freud.
A miserable human being.
Dr. Goldfine: What makes you say that?
Bree:
Well, think about it. He grew up in the late 1800s. There were no appliances back
then. His mother had to do everything by hand, just backbreaking work from sunup
to sundown, not to mention the countless other sacrifices she probably had to
make to take care of her family. And what does he do? He grows up and becomes
famous, peddling a theory that the problems of most adults can be traced back
to something awful their mother has done. She must have felt so betrayed. He saw
how hard she worked. He saw what she did for him. Did he even ever think to say
thank you? I doubt it.

Bree: Um,
Reverend, why don't you, um, have seat, and I will get some refreshments?

reverend sits down at the dining room table where Andrew is sitting and Rex is
pouring wine]
Reverend Sikes: Ah. So, Andrew, it's been a long time.
Andrew
Van De Kamp: Yes. Yes, it has.
Bree: Would you like some water? I have flat
or bubbly.
Reverend Sikes: Oh, bubbly, please. So, your mother tells me you've
started having some sexual desires for other boys.
[Andrew stares at his mother
who smiles back lovingly. Andrew looks at the wine]
Andrew Van De Kamp: I
don't suppose I could get some of that.
Rex Van De Kamp: I'm gonna need every
drop.
Reverend
Sikes: And over the years, we've had so many young people come to our ministry
hating themselves for their unnatural desires, and within a few months, they've
found an inner peace and a tranquility that is nothing short of miraculous.
Bree
Van De Kamp: Oh.
[Bree reaches over and touches Andrew's arm. Andrew smiles
back at his mother]
Reverend Sikes: And all it takes is a little faith and
a desire to change.
Andrew Van De Kamp: I'm sorry, but I, I really don't want
to talk about my sex life.
Bree Van De Kamp: Well, that's just too bad, because
this needs to be discussed.
Reverend Sikes: Bree, please, let the boy speak.
Go on.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Well, I appreciate your offer to help. I do. But
I don't hate myself. So, I'm good.
Reverend Sikes: Son, I know what it's like
to be a teenager. It's a very confusing time.
Andrew Van De Kamp: I'm not
confused. I know exactly who I am.

up.

Bree Van De Kamp: So?
Rex Van De Kamp: So, can you at least wait until desert before calling our
son a sodomite?
Bree Van De Kamp: How you can sit there and be so casual is
beyond me.
Rex Van De Kamp: For starters, I knew this dinner was a bad idea
the moment you suggested it.
Bree Van De Kamp: Well, at least I'm trying to
be pro-active!
Reverend Sikes: Please, there's no need to get upset.
Bree
Van De Kamp: I am upset because there is a problem here and no-one seems to notice
it but me.

Rex: If things do get too rough, we'll
have a control word. If one of us says it, the other backs off immediately.
Bree:
Okay. So what's our control word?
Rex: Well, lately I've been using "Philadelphia".
What's wrong?
Bree: Well, it's just that my Aunt Fern lives in Philadelphia,
and I don't want to be thinking about her while I'm spanking you with a leather
strap.
Rex: Okay. Fine. You pick a control word.
Bree: Um, how about "Boise"?
Rex: "Boise"?
Bree: What's the matter with "Boise"?
Rex: We're going to be doing psychological role playing here, Bree, and a
funny word like "Boise" would ruin the mood. We need something that
sounds serious.

if you hate me, that means you still care, and we're still connected... and I
still have a chance to set you right.
Bree:
Perception is reality, Andrew. And if people perceive me to have a drinking problem,
then I do. And I certainly don't want some idiotic judge using my hobby as an
excuse to make you rich. So I'm simply going to give up my wine and become a recovering
alcoholic.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Good plan, but it'll never work. See, I'll
bet you still end up coming to court hammered.

think I love you enough to give up alcohol?
Andrew Van De Kamp: Look, I'm
seventeen, all right? So, you can only keep me here for another year. Why not
just let me go?

you and you are not half the man I know you can be.

George Williams: Sure.
Andrew Van De Kamp:
Have you ever actually been with a woman?
George Williams: [chuckling] Excuse
me?
Andrew Van De Kamp: Well, let's be honest. I think it's obvious by the
way that you talk and act that you're not a player, so I was just curious to find
out if you had ever actually gotten in the game.
George Williams: My experience
with women is none of your business.
Andrew Van De Kamp: Oh, I think it is.
I mean, you're dating my mom. And we both know that at your age, dating's a little
more than just holding hands.
George Williams: We're not dating exactly.
Andrew
Van De Kamp: Oh, sure you are. And you know what? I think it's great. But I wanna
make sure my mom's happy, you know, and it would really set my mind at ease to
know that she's with a guy that knows how to please a lady.
George Williams:
This is inappropriate.
Andrew Van De Kamp: You know, my parents had a great
sex life. Man, I heard 'em through the wall of my bedroom once.

Please shut up.

this... this weird moan. It was kind of like, um...

Carlos: You wanna be a better
mother? Do what my mama did, make sacrifices. My mama worked her fingers to the
bone for me.
Gabrielle: That's what put her in an early grave. Well, that
and the hit and run thing.
"Desperate
Housewives: Bang (#3.7)" (2006)
Carolyn Bigsby: Don't look at me that
way you know you wanted her dead.
Lynette Scavo: How can you say that?
Carolyn
Bigsby: Well you told me about her and your husband after and I made it pretty
clear where I stand on whores.
Lynette Scavo: I did not want this. Don't you
dare say that I wanted this.
Carolyn Bigsby: Shut up!
Lynette Scavo: No
I will not shup up! What's the matter with you?
Carolyn Bigsby: Have you not
been paying attention, my husband cheated on me!
Lynette Scavo: Who cares!
Who cares, we all have pain! Everyone in here has pain but we deal with it! We
swallow it and get going with our lives. What we don't do is go around shooting
strangers!
Carolyn Bigsby: She deserved it!
Lynette Scavo: Well maybe
you deserved to be cheated on!
Mary
Alice Young: [narrating] Lynette Scavo had a dream that night. It was one she
had many times before.
Lynette Scavo: Hey! Mary-Alice, are you okay?
Mary
Alice Young: Yes, thank you. I'm fine.
Lynette Scavo: Ok! I'll see you later!
Mary Alice Young: [narrating] But this night, something changed.
Lynette
Scavo: No, you're not. I can tell. Please, tell me what's wrong. Let me save you.
Mary Alice Young: You can't.
Lynette Scavo: Why not?
Mary Alice Young:
Sweety, we can't prevent what we can't predict!
Lynette Scavo: Isn't there
anything I could do?
Mary Alice Young: Yes. You can enjoy this beautiful day.
We get so few of them.
Mary Alice Young: [narrating] This was the last time
Lynette would ever dream of me. And for her sake, I'm grateful.
Nora:
[shot] "Kayla was the one thing I did good in my life. Promise me you'll
take really good care of her."
Lynette Scavo: [nods]
Nora: Come on,
I don't have all day.
Lynette Scavo: [crying] I will, I promise

Housewives: Everybody Says Don't (#2.18)" (2006)
Gabrielle: We were supposed
to have four weeks. She promised me the baby wasn't due for four more weeks. We
don't have anything! We don't, we don't have diapers, and we don't have the stuff
babies drink.
Lynette: Formula.
Gabrielle: Exactly. We're not ready! You
know, this is a total inconvenience.
Lynette: Welcome to parenthood. Come
on.
Lynette:
What is it? Teeth?
Felicia Tilman: Dentures. They were my dear sister, Martha's.
I'm sure none of you knew, but she had orthodontic issues from the time she was
a child.
Edie: Oh. Thank you.
Felicia Tilman: I know it's an unconventional
gift for an engagement party, but you and Martha were such close friends, Edie.
I wanted you to have something truly personal to remember her by since she left
us so abruptly. You know, when Paul Young strangled her, crushed her windpipe,
and buried her alive next to a garbage-strewn hiking trail.
Edie: Felicia,
uh, I think you've had enough.
Felicia Tilman: I do apologize if I've offended
anyone, but while you all are chit-chatting and eating these yummy hors d'oeuvres,
just remember you're in the company of a murderer.

Housewives: Ah, But Underneath (#1.2)" (2004)
[after the kids bite and
knock the beefy middle-aged woman over]
Lynette Scavo: Run, boys, run!
[a
motorcycle cop pulls Lynette over]
Officer Hayes: License and registration,
please.
[she hands them to him]
Officer Hayes: Ma'am, you know why I pulled
you over?
[she looks at the kids in the back]
Lynette Scavo: I have a
theory.
Officer Hayes: The kids were jumping up and down. They should be sitting,
wearing their seatbelts.
Lynette Scavo: I yelled at them. They never listen
to me. It's very frustrating.
Officer Hayes: Well, you have to find a way
control them. After all, that's your job.
[he hands her the ticket and walks
off]
Mary Alice Young: [narrating] Though he'd been a policeman for six years,
Officer Hayes had never found himself in a truly dangerous situation. Then again,
he had never before told a woman how to raise her children.
[Lynette furiously
gets out of her car and slowly approaches Officer Hayes]
Lynette Scavo: Are
you saying I'm a bad mother?
Officer Hayes: Ma'am, you need to get back in
your car, please.
Lynette Scavo: I have no help. My husband's always away
on business.
Officer Hayes: I'm gonna have to ask you to step back now.
Lynette
Scavo: My babysitter joined the Witness Relocation Program! I haven't slept through
the night...
[Officer Hayes slowly reaches for his gun]
Officer Hayes:
Ma'am.
Lynette Scavo: ...in six years. And for you to stand there and judge
me...
[she stands in front of Officer Hayes, who's terrified. He looks at
the children, who are acting terrible]
Officer Hayes: OK. I'm not gonna give
you a ticket. I'm just gonna let you off with a warning.
Lynette Scavo: I
accept your apology.
[she takes the warning, sighs, and gets back in the car]
Officer Hayes: Buckle up.

"Desperate
Housewives: It Wasn't Meant to Happen (#2.20)" (2006)
Lynette: Karl broke
up with Edie.
Susan: Oh my God!
Bree: Yeah, apparently he was seeing someone.
Susan: Really? Did he say who it is?
Edie: I know who she is. She's a
man-eating, scum-sucking ho bag!
Bree: [Pause] No, he did not say.
Ed
Ferrara: At least you and Tom have a love life.
Lynette: Well, we do the best
we can. Given the circumstances.
Ed Ferrara: Better than Fran and I. We're
dead in that apartment. Ah, I don't wanna bore you with the details.
Lynette:
I appreciate that. You know, Ed. I don't want to pry into your personal business,
but if you are having problems in that area, you don't have to be resigned to
it.
Ed Ferrara: What are you suggesting, hookers? No, Ed Ferrara doesn't pay
for sex.

Mrs. Pate: Yesterday afternoon,
Parker offered a cookie to Cindy Lou Peeples if she would show him her vagina.
Lynette: What kind of cookie?
Mrs. Pate: What does that matter?
Lynette:
Oh, it doesn't. I'm just stalling because I am completely mortified.
Karen
McCluskey: Here's the big news. Parker offered me a fudgesicle if I would show
him my vagina. Oh, good god, Lynette, relax. I didn't do it. I just got this out
of the freezer a second ago.
Lynette: Uh, yeah. Of course, no, sorry.
Karen
McCluskey: Apparently, Parker wanted to put a sunflower seed inside me and see
if a baby would grow. Where do kids get this stuff?
Lynette: Oh, that was
me. He was asking about the birds and the bees and I fudged a few of the details.
Well, he's only seven years old. I don't think he needs to know everything yet.
I don't wanna rob him of his innocence.
Karen McCluskey: Well, now, that's
where you're wrong. You get 'em when they're young. Give 'em all the gory details.
And then when they're good and disgusted, you shame 'em.
Lynette: Excuse me?
Karen McCluskey: You tell them sex is dirty and wrong and he shouldn't talk
about it and if he does, he's going straight to hell.
Lynette: That is ridiculous.
Karen McCluskey: Spoken like a true liberal idiot.
Lynette: No, I am not
going to shame my son.
Karen McCluskey: Mm, I'm telling ya, it works. It keeps
people in their place, it keeps parents from being humiliated, and it keeps me
from having to spend the afternoon talking about my woo-woo.

"Desperate
Housewives: Pilot (#1.1)" (2004)
Lynette: Now listen to me, you are going
to behave. I will not be humiliated in front of the entire neighborhood. And just
so you know that I'm serious, I am...
[takes a piece of paper out of her pocket]
Porter Scavo: What's that?
Lynette: Santa's cell phone number!
Preston
Scavo: How'd you get that?
Lynette: I know someone, who knows someone, who
knows an elf. And if any of you acts up, so help me I will call Santa and tell
him you want socks for Christmas! All right, are you willing to risk that?

Ed Ferrara: So, the pig actually
eats the bacon?
Tom Scavo: Uh, huh, yeah.
Ed Ferrara: I don't see the
client doing a happy dance over the whole cannibalism theme.
Lynette Scavo:
Well, Tom, why don't you pitch him the other idea you came up with last night.
You know the one where people love bacon so much they want to keep it a secret.
Ed Ferrara: What like a secret underground society of bacon eaters?
Tom
Scavo: More like my college fraternity, where, you know, everybody wanted in,
but we only took the coolest guys.
Ed Ferrara: You were Greek?
Tom Scavo:
Alpha Tau Omega.
Ed Ferrara: I was Phi Kap.
Tom Scavo: You?
Ed Ferrara:
And I don't remember you having to be that cool to pledge ATO.
Tom Scavo:
Look, if I had a nickel for every Phi Kap that I tied to a freeway sign.
Ed
Ferrara: Scavo, if you were my pledge, I would've made you my bitch.
