Marilyn Lovell
- Henry Hurt: I, uh, I have a request from the news people.
- Marilyn Lovell: Uh-huh?
- Henry Hurt: They're out front here. They want to put a transmitter up on the lawn.
- Marilyn Lovell: Transmitter?
- Henry Hurt: Kind of a tower, for live broadcast.
- Marilyn Lovell: I thought they didn't care about this mission. They didn't even run Jim's show.
- Henry Hurt: Well, it's more dramatic now. Suddenly people are...
- Marilyn Lovell: Landing on the moon wasn't dramatic enough for them - why should NOT landing on it be?
- Henry Hurt: Look, I, um, I realize how hard this is, Marilyn, but the whole world is caught up in this, it's historic-...
- Marilyn Lovell: No, Henry! Those people don't put one piece of equipment on my lawn. If they have a problem with that, they can take it up with my husband. He'll be HOME... on FRIDAY!
- Marilyn Lovell: Blanche, Blanche, these nice young men are going to watch the television with you. This is Neil Armstrong, and this is Buzz... Aldrin.
- Neil Armstrong: Hi.
- Blanche Lovell: Are you boys in the space program too?
- [Jim's daughter wants to go trick-or-treating as a hippie]
- Barbara Lovell: Dad, can I please wear this?
- Jim Lovell: Sure.
- Marilyn Lovell: Jim!
- Jim Lovell: No! No, absolutely not.
- Marilyn Lovell: Jeffrey?
- Jeffrey Lovell: Why are so many people here?
- Marilyn Lovell: Well, you know, your dad's flying his mission.
- Jeffrey Lovell: He said he was going to get me a moon rock.
- Marilyn Lovell: Right. Well, something broke on your daddy's spaceship. And he's going to have to turn around before he even gets to the moon.
- Jeffrey Lovell: Was it the door?
- Marilyn Lovell: [none of the TV networks are showing Apollo 13's TV broadcast] Do they know they're not on the air?
- Henry Hurt: We'll tell them when they get back.
- Marilyn Lovell: [Barbara has locked herself in her room] Barbara!
- [Knocks on the door]
- Marilyn Lovell: Barbara, we're going to hear your father's broadcast!
- Barbara Lovell: No! I'm never coming out! I hate Paul! None of us are ever going to play another one of their records again!
- Susan Lovell: She's still going on about the stupid Beatles breaking up?
- Barbara Lovell: They're not stupid, *you're* stupid!
- Marilyn Lovell: [Jim is standing outside, looking up at the moon, covering and uncovering it with his thumb. Marilyn comes out with a garbage bag] You're drunk, Lovell.
- Jim Lovell: Yeah, I'm not used to the champagne.
- Marilyn Lovell: Me neither...
- [She picks at a few glasses on a table, then drops the bag in exasperation]
- Marilyn Lovell: I can't deal with cleaning up, let's sell the house.
- Jim Lovell: All right, we'll sell the house.
- [Still looking up at the moon]
- Jim Lovell: They're back inside now. Looking up at us. Isn't that something?
- Marilyn Lovell: [Settles into a lawn chair] I'll bet Jenny Armstrong doesn't get a wink of sleep tonight. When you were on the far side on 8, I didn't sleep at all. I just vacuumed over and over again.
- Henry Hurt: Hey Marylin.
- Marilyn Lovell: Where's their broadcast?
- Henry Hurt: All the networks dumped us. One of them said we made going to the moon as exciting as taking a trip to Pittsburgh.
