Caroline and the Gift

Episode Number: 11    Season Num: 1    First Aired: Thursday January 4, 1996    Prod Code: 111
Del's unexpectedly generous Christmas gift (a pair of ugly but valuable earrings) makes Caroline question his intentions. Richard paints a commissioned nude portrait of a beautiful woman (Udenio) who has a well-connected husband - well -connected in "the Family," according to a frightened Remo. And Annie can't remember her New Year's Eve party at which she met a man who has since telephoned her to confirm their date.

Quotes

Donna: I'm sorry, was my hand like this or like this?
Richard: Doesn't matter, I'm painting the fruit bowl.
Donna: Huh. Then why do I have to sit here without my clothes on?
Richard: Uh...for the shadow. (edit)
Annie: Oh, look at Richard!
Caroline: Where?
Annie: (about Donna) On the other side of those breasts. (edit)
Caroline: Del spent one thousand two hundred and forty-three dollars on my Christmas present?
Annie: Isn't it weird how ugly jewellery is so much more attractive when you find out how much it's worth? Much like men. (edit)
Mr Davies: Yes, these are from Frank & Sons. Unfortunately they were on sale, so I will only be able to give you store credit.
Caroline: On sale, how thrifty. Could you show me something else in the same price range?
Annie: Yeah, preferably something from the non-ugly section. (edit)
Caroline: My boyfriend gave me these earrings for Christmas. I feel a little guilty about this, but I'd like to return them.
Mr Davies: Did your boyfriend give you the receipt?
Caroline: Well actually, he's not really my boyfriend anymore. We broke up, we're just friends.
Mr Davies: Madam, at Frank & Sons our focus is entirely on the receipt, rather than the nature of your relationship. (edit)

Trivia
