Annie: (about Mary) Okay, let's say we do it your way. We don't wait. We do something. What "something" do we do?
Eric: I don't know. (Annie sighs) I don't know!
Annie: You help people with their problems every day, and when it comes to our family and our kids, you don't know what we should do?!?!?
Eric: No, I don't. (edit) Simon: This isn't Mary. I'm her brother Simon.
Collector: Well, when Mary gets in, would you tell her that if she doesn't pay these bills immediately, we will involve the local authorities.
Simon: Wait, you mean the police?
Collector: Yes. You can't just charge for merchandise and not pay your bills; there are laws. And if we have to, we'll enforce those laws to recoup our losses. (edit) Simon: (when Mary wants to borrow money) No, no, no!
Mary: I will drive you on dates or anywhere you want to go.
Simon: Your car seats two. Where's my date supposed to sit--in the trunk? (edit) Simon: What are we gonna do about this?
Lucy: We're gonna let Mary handle it. It's her problem, not ours.
Ruthie: Please don't let them put Mary in jail again.
Simon: You say to let Mary handle it, but she's not. We're the ones getting the calls, and sooner or later Mom and Dad are gonna find out. And deadbeat or not, she's still our sister. (edit) Annie: Watch the kids.
Lucy: Okay.
Annie: Your father and I are going out.
Eric: Separately.
Annie: Oh, most definitely separately! (edit)
Eric: I don't know. (Annie sighs) I don't know!
Annie: You help people with their problems every day, and when it comes to our family and our kids, you don't know what we should do?!?!?
Eric: No, I don't. (edit) Simon: This isn't Mary. I'm her brother Simon.

NITPICK: During the middle of the episode, while the kids are trying to figure out when Annie will be putting the money into the bank next, Simon says it is the sixth. This episode originally aired on November 6, 2000. It was a Monday, which would mean that Simon, Lucy, and Ruthie should have been at school. It may have been a district-wide teacher's professional day where the kids have the day off while teachers attend meetings. That happened a lot in earlier seasons.
