    • Quotes
      • Blanche Devereaux: Oh! Oh, I have never been so embarrassed in my entire life. I made a fool of myself, didn't I?
      • Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: Yes!
      • Blanche Devereaux: Well, I feel awful, just awful!
      • Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: Listen, if you don't want tonight to turn into a total disaster, you have to stop being so self-conscious.
      • Blanche Devereaux: Oh, well you're right, of course. Dr. Newman is a guest in our home. If I'm self-conscious, he'll be ill at ease. I can't allow that to happen. It would be... un-Southern.
      • Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: That's a good belle.
      • Blanche Devereaux: Dorothy, get the door.
      • [picks up the tray of hors d'oeuvres and walks through the kitchen door. To Dr. Newman and Rose]
      • Blanche Devereaux: Shrimp?
      • [keeps walking in a circle so she can go right back in the kitchen]
