Jacob Goldman : What made you think of that, Pop?
Max Goldman : I don't know. I think about things like that all the time.
Jacob Goldman : [concerned] Hey, Pop... are you all right?
Max Goldman : Will you get out of here and let me watch my program? And close the door when you go because I don't want those mosquitoes coming in here. They're crazy about my macaroni and cheese dish.

Melanie : I'm not sticking the plant lady next to your Uncle Willy.
