Linda : [to Shug, of Baby Doll] Why, she's your own blood niece. Hell, that's incest!

Shugfoot Rainey : Baby Doll doesn't care about money, she just loves her Uncle Shug. Why, even when she was a child...
Linda : Oh, yes, she's mentioned that you were the first!

Linda : Do you remember the night you picked me up in that crummy cafe? And you remember the Wayfarer Motel? Take a look at this.
[brandishes a receipt]
Shugfoot Rainey : Huh. "Mr. and Mrs. Shugfoot Rainey". So? We registered in a hotel together. Who hasn't?
Linda : As man and wife!
Shugfoot Rainey : So what? They didn't take you for my mother.
Linda : So in this state, that made us man and wife. Mr. Rainey, meet Mrs. Rainey. No bell, book and candle, but just as tight a knot. I'm your common law wife, dear common law husband!
