- Employment Agent: What did you have in mind?
- Lucy Ricardo: What kind of jobs do you have open?
- Employment Agent: Well what do you do?
- Lucy Ricardo: What kind of jobs do you have open?
- Employment Agent: Well what do you do?
- Lucy Ricardo: What kind of jobs do you have open?
- Employment Agent: You go first this time.
- Lucy Ricardo: Alright, what do you do?
- Employment Agent: What kind of jobs do you have... Oh. Cut it out.
- Ricky Ricardo: How much rice do you think we should use for four people?
- Fred Mertz: I don't know. People do like that stuff.
- Ricky Ricardo: How does one pound per person sound?
- Fred Mertz: Sounds about right.
- Ricky Ricardo: That's good because that's what I put in: four pounds.
- Ricky Ricardo: Say, what do you know about rice?
- Fred Mertz: Well, I had it thrown at me on one of the darkest days of my life.
- Ricky Ricardo: What have you got there?
- Fred Mertz: I brought my cake. Seven layers of luscious Devil's Food. Wait til you see it.
- [Fred takes off the cake cover to reveal a cake barely one inch thick]
- Ricky Ricardo: What happened to the other six layers?
- Fred Mertz: They're all there. Some just... didn't rise very much.
- Ricky Ricardo: Well you can put on a lot of frosting.
- Fred Mertz: What do you mean "put on"? The frosting's already in it.
- Ricky Ricardo: In it?
- Fred Mertz: Yeah, I mixed it all up before I baked the cake.
- Ricky Ricardo: Well, maybe you should wait until breakfast and serve it as a pancake.
- Fred Mertz: Oh never mind!
- Ricky Ricardo: [Arrives home angry] Lucy! Come here.
- Lucy Ricardo: What's the matter?
- Ricky Ricardo: I stopped by the bank on the way home, and they showed me this.
- [Holds up piece of paper]
- Lucy Ricardo: What's that?
- Ricky Ricardo: Your check to the beauty parlor.
- Lucy Ricardo: I write a check to the beauty parlor every month.
- Ricky Ricardo: Yes, I know that. But they don't always have a little note in the back, like this one.
- [Points to and reads note on back of check]
- Ricky Ricardo: "Dear teller, be a lamb and don't put this through till next month."
- [Lucy looks disgusted]
- Ricky Ricardo: Now what have you got to say for yourself?
- Lucy Ricardo: That's why they call them "tellers"--they go around blabbing everything they know.
