- Merle: [the Gogans have returned and want to take Pete away from Nora] Okay lady, we're gonna take him whether you like it or not. Right boys?
- Grover: Right, Pa. Willie, you grab onto Pete, while I hold onto her.
- Willie: You grab Pete, I wanna hold her.
- Grover: I wanna hold her!
- Willie: I'm gonna hold her!
- [Willie and Grover push each other]
- Merle: [separates them] Alright, I'll settle this: You two grab the brat, I'LL hold her.
- Lena Gogan: If you think you're gonna hold her, like my boys wanna hold her, you're gonna be holdin' your head, ya understand?
- Grover: Hey Ma, w-why don't we get ourselves another orphan, huh?
- Lena Gogan: Because I done paid our last $50 for Pete, plus $.50 legal fees, and we ain't got another $50 plus legal, that's why. Ya understand?
