The Mary Tyler Moore Show Season 3 Episode 20

Mary: Well, I thought you'd be really curious to know who your new boss is going to be. Aren't you curious, Mr. Grant?
Lou: Not really, Mary.
Mary: Well, I will read it to you then. It's not a very long memo. It just names the person who will be replacing Snyder.
Lou: All right, what's his name, Mary?
Mary: His name is Barbara Coleman.

Murray: (seeing Doris crying inconsolably and finding out her boss, the station manager, was fired) Did it just happen this morning?
Doris: No. Friday. Last Friday.
Murray: And you've been crying all this time?
Doris: No, just Friday. Friday and today. I had company over the weekend.

Barbara: (looking at Lou's football picture) Oh, is that you?
Lou: Yeah.
Barbara: College?
Lou: High school.
Barbara: You look old for high school.
Lou: I looked old for Kindergarten.

Rhoda: (discussing men with Mary and Barbara) Let's not forget the worst kind of all: a guy who lies about being married. (the women groan knowingly) Tells you he is when he isn't!

Rhoda: Yeah, there are two people I've never thought of as being romantic. Lou, and the guy I'm going with now.

Mary: (telling Barbara about Lou and Edie) I mean, she goes away for a day and the man can't eat. He can drink, but he can't eat.

Lou: Mary, she wants me. Why me?
Mary: Well, you're a very…kind of special person.
Lou: Yeah.

Lou: Well, if-if I'm going to have any extracurricular activities, frankly I'm better off bowling. It's less complicated.

Ted: You don't really think she'd fire me for a little pinchareeno in the elevator?
Murray: Well, I hope not, Ted. Because if you go, I go! I couldn't write for anyone else.
Ted: Do you mean that, Murr?
Murray: Mm-hmm. My vocabulary isn't what it used to be.
