- Freddie: You know, if I can't make this marriage work, what kind of a man am I?
- Maura: D'ya ever stop moanin'?
- Freddie: You notice my marriage just broke up!
- Maura: Well, it seems to me it was the best thing for everyone!
- [pause]
- Maura: Anyway--marriage is not the be-all and end-all of life.
- Freddie: Like you would know.
- Maura: Oh. Molly told you.
- Freddie: Yeah, she did.
- Maura: Well--maybe I'm not the best person to be giving you advice, but you'll get over it. Find someone else, even.
- Freddie: Who'd want me? I'm a nutter.
- Maura: *Go and look*. What else have you gotta lose, heh? And maybe just try livin' with the next one for a while. If it works out, you can risk marriage in--10 or--20 years?
- [pause; Maura smiles]
- Maura: I better find my daughter.
- Freddie: Yeah.
