Esther: Don't you know that alcohol is a lubricant for the devil?
Grady: Sure do, and I'm just about due for an oil change. (edit)
Grady: All right, now suppose we start off with a little liquid refreshments here? Now this is half mint julep and half Ripple, and Fred calls this "mint jipple."
Officer Hoppy: Well, it sounds delicious, Mr. Wilson, but actually were still on duty (looks at watch) for another five, four, three, two, one for me, please. (grabs a glass) Thank you. (edit)
Esther: Oh, what a pretty little garden.
Grady: No, no, hey, hey, wait a minute now. Fred told me to keep you outta this garden.
Esther: Is that so?
Grady: Yeah. He said just because he had planted a Garden of Eden, there was no reason to let the serpent in. (edit)
Grady: The great thing about this garden is that it's all organic. No chemicals, no sprays. It's natural. Just a little plant food and that's it.
Lamont: Oh, yeah? Well, what do you use for fertilizer?
Grady: Nothing. Mrs. Nelson's cat comes by twice a day. (edit)
Lamont: What are you doing?
Grady: I'm talking to your father's plants. Do you mind?
Lamont: No, I don't mind. Have you gotten to the part where you tell them that you're a yo-yo? (edit)
