• Percy Livermore : We must rid our speech of slang. Now, besides "OK", I want you all to promise me that there are two words that you will never use. One of these is "swell" and the other one is "lousy".

  Lucy Ricardo : OK, what are they?

  Percy Livermore : [with emphasis]  One of them is "swell" and the other one is "lousy".

  Fred Mertz : Well, give us the lousy one first.
