Quotes 

• [the bar is dark and seemingly empty as it's closed for the evening. The telephone rings, and the answering machine picks up] 

  Sam Malone : [voice on the answering machine]  Hi. This is Cheers. Leave a message at the beep.

  [the answering machine beeps] 

  Vera Peterson : [voice on the telephone]  Norm, this is Vera. Please pick up. Norm! Norm!

  [Vera hangs up the telephone. The telephone rings again and the answering machine picks up] 

  Sam Malone : [voice on the answering machine]  Hi. This is Cheers. Leave a message at the beep.

  [the answering machine beeps] 

  Vera Peterson : [voice on the telephone]  Norm, I know you're there. Pick up the phone, Norm. It's three o'clock in the morning. I want you to come home. Norm? Norm!

  [Vera hangs up the telephone. The telephone rings again and the answering machine picks up] 

  Sam Malone : [voice on the answering machine]  Hi. This is Cheers. Leave a message at the beep.

  [the answering machine beeps] 

  Vera Peterson : [voice on the telephone]  Hi, Sam? This is Vera Peterson again. Listen, uh, ignore those messages. It turns out, Norm was here in bed next to me the whole time. And I thought that big lump was our dog. Who knew?
