- Gracie Allen: Isn't it a lovely day? I'm glad we're having lunch out in the garden.
- George Burns: Yeah, it was a good idea.
- Gracie Allen: Yes! Isn't the air wonderful?
- George Burns: Yeah, and I notice that we get more of it outdoors than we do indoors.
- Gracie Allen: Yeah, you know, and it's surprising because we've got more windows indoors.
- George Burns: That's because the man who designed our house built the outdoors better.
- Gracie Allen: Well, naturally! He had more room to work in.
- George Burns: [to camera] I'm sorry I started it.
- George Burns: What's Ronnie studying?
- Gracie Allen: Greek philosophy.
- George Burns: Oh, like Aristotle, Plato, Socrates?
- Gracie Allen: Well, I don't know the professor's name, but it must be one of those three.
- Gracie Allen: Isn't it wonderful, the interest he's taking in his studies?
- George Burns: Gracie, I think Ronnie's studying the same thing I studied when I was his age.
- Gracie Allen: Oh George, you never went to college!
- George Burns: Yeah, but I used to stand outside and whistle at them as they walked in!
- George Burns: [to camera] I'm supposed to say something funny to cover Gracie's walk to the front door, but I won't have time to say it because she's already there. So why don't you laugh and I'll owe you a joke.
- Prof. Maynard Henderson: Mrs. Burns, I'm Professor Henderson and, if you don't mind, I think I should talk ONLY to the head of the household.
- Gracie Allen: Oh.
- Prof. Maynard Henderson: Is Mr. Burns home?
- Gracie Allen: Well yes, he's in the garden - but if we whisper he won't hear us.
- Prof. Maynard Henderson: I... I would like to talk to Mr. Burns.
- Gracie Allen: Oh, alright. It's sweet of you to want to include him. You know, he likes to know what's going on!
- George Burns: [Gracie hired models to pose as servants] Where did you get these girls?
- Gracie Allen: From a model agency.
- George Burns: What does that cost?
- Gracie Allen: Oh, about a hundred-thousand dollars. You see, it's a four-story building and it's very modern, and it has glass all the way...
- George Burns: No, not what the building cost. What do the girls cost?
- Gracie Allen: Oh, they each get twenty-five dollars an hour.
- George Burns: This is murder! Who's got that kinda money?
- Gracie Allen: Well, they'll have it as soon as you pay them.
