Helen Holt There's different kinds of love, darling. Some people you love no matter what, and others you love if the situation was right. To me, the best kind of love is the "no matter what" kind.

Jacey Holt
[Jacey talks about Doug's artificial sideburns.]
You look like a clown. He looks like a clown, mom, and he doesn't even know it. I thought you weren't going to the party.
I changed my mind.
Helen Holt Doug, you do realize that you maybe the only person in this party with artificial sideburns.
Joan Abbott
Jacey needs to be disciplined.
Helen Holt I don't think that's neccesary.
Joan Abbott
Well if I were you, I'd talk to him, and--.
Helen Holt No, Joan, I'm not going to do that. If you've got something to say to my son, you're going to have to say it to him yourself.
Joan Abbott
I just thought you would like to know what your son has done.
Helen Holt And why on Earth should I believe anything you say, Joan.
