- Kay Villano: Oh well pardon me, having a conversation with my DEAD HUSBAND happens to upset me a little bit!
- Kay Villano: Everything goes. Everything goes. Except that chair!
- Charlotte Banning: Kay, that ratty old chair? Don't be silly. Why would you want to keep THAT chair?
- Kay Villano: DON'T TOUCH THAT CHAIR. My fiancé... was born in it.
- Charlotte Banning: Rupert was born in a chair?
- Kay Villano: Yes, it's the most lovely story. His mother was just sitting there, knitting, listening to the radio - and out popped my fiancé.
- Jolly Villano: Darling, only you can see me. They can't see me.
- Rupert Baines: [to little boy sitting in ancient museum chairpiece, annoyed and patronizing] No no, little boy! We mustn't sit on the chair. Do you know why? Because THIS is a priceless, irreplaceable piece of fine art from another millennium. And YOU... are a not-quite-formed, piece of temporary plasmic rubbish taking up space on this already overcrowded planet!
- Charlotte Banning: Was this always here?
- Kay Villano: Was what always there?
- Charlotte Banning: This wall, was it always here?
- Kay Villano: Yes mother, it was always there.
- Charlotte Banning: Well, I don't remember it.
- Kay Villano: It was always there. It was always kind of flat like that and held the building up.
- Charlotte Banning: Whatever.
- Charlotte Banning: He's such a nerd!
- Kay Villano: He's not a nerd! Where did you ever come up with that word?
- Charlotte Banning: Oh, just came out of my lips when I met him! NERD! Just like that.
- Emily: I think it's great that she's decided to face this place, start doing things again.
- Charlotte Banning: So do I. But why couldn't she start with something simple. Like needlepoint, or analysis.
