(Fred and Donna exchanging first names)
Donna: Donna means "Lady", you know.
Fred: Yeah, well Fred means "Man." So I guess that's going to work out real well, ain't it. (edit) Lamont: (to Donna) How would you like to be the wife of an old man?!
Fred: (to Lamont) How would you like to be the father of a young dummy?! (edit) Donna: I made it especially for you. Your father said it was your favorite.
Lamont: It was when my mother made it.
Donna: How did your mother make it?
Fred: She used to burn it!
Lamont: That's a lie. Mom was a wonderful cook.
Fred: Burned everything. (edit) Fred: Here, have some Juji-Fruits.
Lamont: I don't want no Juji-Fruits, I want something that's gonna stick to my ribs!
Fred: Well, they won't stick to your ribs, but they'll sure stick to your teeth! (edit) Fred: (explaining the Clint Eastwood movie he saw) He shot eleven bad guys, and a water buffalo...didn't even reload! He must've had a twelve-shooter! (edit)
