Kate: Honesty next time?
John: Just better lies. (edit) Marge: Kate, if you didn't want to come with me, you didn't have to lie.
Lily: Wait, wait, wait. You invited her first?
Marge: Well, what's the difference, sweetheart?
Lily: Well, you said you just got the idea this morning.
Marge: Yes. The idea to invite you! (edit) John: Because Mom asked me to keep it discreet to protect his pride.
Tommy: All right. It's weird, huh? It's almost like we have to become the parents to our parents. We're the mature ones... All right, I'm gonna go make number one and then Dad and I'll hit the road. (edit) Tommy: You're putting him in my car now?
John: Tommy...
Tommy: It's not fair. If he's allowed in my car, then I'm allowed to touch his desk.
John: Who said you can't touch his desk?
Tommy: He did... but I touch it anyway. He's not my boss... is he? (edit) John: Victor? What's going on?
Victor: Your father just fired me.
Tommy: Dad fired Victor? How come I didn't get to fire Victor? (edit)
John: Just better lies. (edit) Marge: Kate, if you didn't want to come with me, you didn't have to lie.

After Art's and Marge's makeout session at the end, there's a jump cut in regards to their arms right before they exit the house.
(edit)
Art: I had a few new ideas. I wanted to bounce 'em off Richie and Potsie here.
Richie (Ron Howard) and Potsie (Anson Williams) were the nerdy lead characters on Happy Days. (edit) Lily: Oh, Mom, weren't you going to drop off my copy of the Bill Clinton book today?
The Bill Clinton book is My Life, a #1 best seller released in June, 2004. (edit)
