• Sam : What do you want from a child her age? She never even went to Woodstock!

  Charles : Neither did we.

  Sam : But we *could* have.

  Charles : That's true.

  Susan : Listen, Woodstock was just a bunch of naked stoners looking for a place to pee. I saw the movie!

• Clara : [at Thanksgiving dinner]  How are your parents, Sam? Where are they living?

  Sam : Well, my father's living in an apartment on Lee Road and my mother's still in the house.

  Clara : Did you hear that, Charles? Sam's parents aren't living together!

  Charles : You knew that, Mom! Sam's parents haven't lived together since Sam and I were in the eighth grade.

  Clara : I certainly did not know that! That must make you very sad, Sam.

  Sam : I'm accustomed to it.

  Clara : Brave boy!

  Charles : Do you want me to get the food, Mother?

  Clara : What food?

  Charles : The turkey!

  Clara : There isn't any turkey.

  Charles : Well, whatever it is that you prepared, would you like me to go into the kitchen and get it?

  Clara : I didn't prepare anything. There isn't any dinner. Ha ha. There isn't any dinner!

  Sam : I guess the joke's on us.

  Clara : [laughing hysterically]  That's right. The joke's on you!
