"Great Performances" You Can't Take It with You (TV Episode 1984) - Elizabeth Wilson as Penny Sycamore

Penny Sycamore : I've got Cynthia just entering the monastery.

Rheba : She was at the Kit Kat Club wasn't she?

Penny Sycamore : Well she gets tired of the Kit Kat Club and there's this monastery so she goes there.

Rheba : Do they let her in?

Penny Sycamore : Yes, I made it Visitor's Day, so of course anybody can come. She comes and she just stays.

Rheba : You mean she stays all night?

Penny Sycamore : Oh yes, she stays six years.

Rheba : Six years? I'll bet she busts that monastery wide open.
Penny Sycamore : You'd think with 1 girl and 40 monks, something would happen.
Penny Sycamore : Rheba, I think I'm going to put this play away for a while and go back to the war play.

Rheba : Oh I always liked that one, the war play! A BOOM! A BOOM!
Penny Sycamore : Don't the graduates get to say anything, Grandpa?

Grandpa Martin Vanderhof : Oh no, they just sit there in their cap and nightgown, have a diploma handed to them and along 40 years from now suddenly say 'where am I?'
Penny Sycamore : [reading from one of her plays] Kenneth, my virginity is a priceless thing to me.
Penny Sycamore : [Gay Wellington is passed out drunk] Do you think she'll be alright, Grandpa?

Grandpa Martin Vanderhof : Yes but I wouldn't cast her in the religious play.
