      Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: I think I see now how it happened: Last evening at dinner, when Miss MacGlinn saw Blanche give Kendall Nesbitt her key she was furious. She dropped a steak knife into her purse...

      Sophia Petrillo: Big deal. I took a whole place setting.

      Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: [angrily] Not NOW, Ma!
