Jane Curtin: Joanne Webster

Quotes 

• Mayor Beverly : The people who depend on us are expecting us to make the tough choices. Which is why, with all due respect, I believe, in the 21st century, it takes more than a village; it takes a city. And in the case of New York, the greatest city on Earth.

  [applause and murmurs of agreement] 

  Mayor Beverly : Thank you. Thank you for your continued support. And a special thank you to Ron Skinner for hosting this event. Please, buy one of his apartments. But if you don't, you can always donate the $80 million to my campaign.

  Joanne Webster : [laughter and applause]  Darn, I left my checkbook at home.

  Carrie Wells : You know, I looked at one of these apartments. It wasn't for me; not enough windows.

• Eliot Delson : Carrie, may I say how lovely you look.

  Carrie Wells : Oh! Well, thank you, Eliot.

  Eliot Delson : And your plus one.

  Joanne Webster : Why, thank you, Eliot. I believe that's the closest you've ever come to delivering a genuine compliment.

  Eliot Delson : Easy, Jo, it was anything but genuine.

  Carrie Wells : Okay, why don't you two just kiss and make up?

• Joanne Webster : Eliot, you are shameless, forcing that jerk on Carrie.

  Eliot Delson : The mayor approves our budget, Joanne. Which means he pays for those electrons in that electron microscope of yours.

  Joanne Webster : Aha. Yeah.

  Eliot Delson : And Skinner pays for the mayor.

  Joanne Webster : Mm-hmm.

  Eliot Delson : It's as simple as that.

  Joanne Webster : Okay.

  Eliot Delson : That being said, go save her in three minutes. That man is a pig.

• Joanne Webster : $80 million for an apartment, and I have yet to find a bathroom.

  Carrie Wells : So, Joanne, Ronald here was, um... just finishing up his tour.

  Ron Skinner : In fact, I was... finished. You two can show yourselves out.

  Joanne Webster : What it something I said?

• Carrie Wells : That was a gunshot.

  Joanne Webster : Yeah, I know the caterers were bad, but still, this is...

  Carrie Wells : My phone's completely crashed.

  Joanne Webster : [checking her own]  Well, mine, too.

  Carrie Wells : We have to go see what's going on.

• Joanne Webster : That pastry chef is going to bleed out soon; I have got to help him.

  Carrie Wells : No, it is too dangerous. You will get yourself killed. You stay with me.

  Joanne Webster : I can do more good as a hostage, and you work better alone.

  Carrie Wells : [reluctantly]  All right, but you do not antagonize the bad guys. Jo, I'm serious.

  Joanne Webster : Antagonize? Moi?
