- Ted: Benjamin, what do I have in my hand?
- Trudy: A quarter.
- Ted: Now, Grandma doesn't let me eat ice cream because of my diabetes.
- Trudy: True.
- Ted: But she says nothing about a tasty quarter.
- [bites off half of it]
- Ted: Alright, please, very quickly, count to 3, it tastes terrible. One...
- Ted, Trudy, Ben at 7-Years-Old, Donna Newman: Two, three.
- [Ted spits the quarter back into one piece]
- Trudy: Ahh!
- Ben at 7-Years-Old: Are you shitting me?
- Trudy: First he's eating like his father and now you're talking like him?
- Donna Newman: Ben!
- Trudy: Don't you EVER say that again!
- Ben at 7-Years-Old: Sorry, Grandma.
- Samantha Newman - Age 5: HOW did you do that, Grandpa?
- Ted: A good magician NEVER reveals his secrets, your daddy's been wanting to know how I did it since he was your age.
- Michael Newman: My schmeckel got bigger now that I'm older, just so you guys know that.
- Trudy: It couldn't have gotten any smaller.
- Ted: [laughing] It looked like a little Tic Tac.
- Michael Newman: Yeah, come here. I'll freshen your breath.
- Trudy: Hey, Micheal. Micheal, who are you talking to?
- Michael Newman: Jesus. I'm talking to my boss, Ma. Take it easy.
- Trudy: Oh, yeah? Well, tell him to get a life. You got family here. You're busy. Come on.
- Michael Newman: My mother says hello.
- Trudy: [Michael rewinds to his family's camping trip at Lake Winnipesaukee in the 70s] Uh uh uh, no cupcakes yet!
- Michael at 10 Years Old: But I'm starving!
- Ted: I know exactly how you feel, Michael, I'm so hungry, I could eat this quarter!
- Michael Newman: Ah, so THIS is where the quarter trick started.
- Morty: [watches Ted bite the quarter in half and then spit it whole again, amazed] How did he do that?
- Michael Newman: It's a trick coin you buy in a magic shop, I just couldn't ever let him know I knew that.
- Trudy: [Ben's eating a large dish of ice cream] Benjamin, slow down, it's not a race.
- [to Donna]
- Trudy: It's his second one in five minutes, he's like a machine, he just keeps eating, he can't still be hungry.
- Donna Newman: He's not, he's just doing whatever Michael does. It's driving him nuts.
- Trudy: What Michael's been doing lately is very unhealthy, he's going to kill himself!
