Quotes 

• Julie : He said that he loved me.

  Helen : Men say that. They all say that. Then they cum.

• Julie : [door slams as Tod leaves after having a fight with Julie]  If he thinks I'm having his baby now, he's crazy!

  Helen : [shocked]  Baby?

  George Bowman : Your daughter's having a baby?

  Helen : [even more shocked]  A baby?

  George Bowman : You're going to be a grandma?

  Helen : [laughs incredulously]  No, no, no, no. I'm too young to be a grandmother. Grandmothers are old. They bake, and they sew, and they tell you stories about the Depression.

  [shouts] 

  Helen : I was at Woodstock, for Christ's sake! I peed in a field! I hung on to The Who's helicopter as it flew away!

  [gestures wildly] 

  George Bowman : I was at Woodstock.

  Helen : [shouts]  Oh yeah? I thought you looked familiar!

• Helen : [whimpers as she flips through the stack of sex photos of Julie and Tod] 

  [Julie enters the room and Helen holds up a picture] 

  Helen : I... I... I think this this one is my favorite.

  Julie : It was just for fun, Mom.

  Helen : Well, I'm glad to know it's not a job. That's that Tod, isn't it? There's one with his face.

  [as she looks closer at the photos] 

  Julie : Is that what bothers you? That I did those things? Or that I did those things with Tod?

  Helen : Gee whiz, Julie, so many things bother me about this, I don't know where to separate them.

  [holds up a different photo] 

  Helen : Oh! Whoo! Here's something for my wallet!

  Julie : Tod is very important to me.

  Helen : And we've got the photos to prove it!

  [as she holds up the sex photos again] 

  Julie : Mom...

  Helen : [looking again at the photos]  This is your room. You did these things right here? In my house?

  Julie : Well, I thought someone in this house ought to be having sex. I mean with something that doesn't require batteries.

• [Tod is struggling with Julie] 

  Tod : Julie, you belong with me!

  Helen : [hitting him]  Let go of her!

  Tod : You're my wife!

  Helen : I said-!

  [stops] 

  Helen : His what?

  Julie : His wife. We got married a few days ago.

  Helen : [hitting her]  Are you out of your *mind*? Are you out of your *mind*?

• Julie : I wouldn't live with you if the world were flooded with piss and you lived in a tree!

• Tod : [upon finding Julie at her own house with her mother]  Julie!

  Julie : Tod?

  Tod : I thought I'd find you here.

  Julie : What does that make you, Sherlock Holmes? I live here!

  Tod : You live with me.

  Julie : I wouldn't live with you if the world were flooded with piss and you lived in a tree.

• Julie : I can't do this! This is too intense!

  Helen : This is marriage!

• Helen : [Garry enters]  Hi, Garry.

  Garry : Hi.

  Julie : I'm moving out, Garry.

  Garry : Bye.

  Helen : See? You've upset your brother!
