    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Ray Romano really used to deliver futons, and did walk in on a woman naked.
    • Goofs
      In Season 2, the large wooden fork and spoon hanging on Marie & Frank's kitchen wall are replaced with smaller lighter-colored versions. However, the new utensils are now shown in what was supposed to be a flashback to when Raymond was still living with his parents.
    • Quotes

      Ray Barone: That's the restaurant where the crazy old Chinese lady yells at you while you're leaving, right?

      Debra Barone: You know what she's yelling, right?

      Ray Barone: Yeah, "habanadah!"

      Debra Barone: She's saying, "Have a nice day."

      Ray Barone: Oh.

      [pause]

      Ray Barone: Well, maybe she isn't crazy.
