Gomez Addams : [snaps his fingers] Lurch, that picture of the house that you sent to your mother, you told her it was your house, right?
[Lurch nods shamefully]
Morticia Addams : Well, we always think of you as one of the family, Lurch.
Lurch : A servant...
Morticia Addams : A very good servant!
Lurch : I'm a liar.
Gomez Addams : And a very good liar!
Morticia Addams : Gomez!
Gomez Addams : Oh sorry, I got carried away.

[Training Lurch to behave like master of the house, Morticia presents him the newspaper]
Morticia Addams : No, no, Lurch. Not the funnies - the financial page. Wealthy men always turn to the financial page first.
Lurch : [resolutely] I like the funnies!

Gomez Addams : You rang?
Mother Lurch : I don't trust you Gomez, you've got shifty eyes! And no good butler wears a mustache!
Gomez Addams : Sorry madam, I was born with it.
Mother Lurch : Where have you been off to, some dark corner with that hussy of a maid?
Gomez Addams : [to Lurch] Sir, I appeal to you!
Mother Lurch : You don't appeal to him and you don't appeal to me! My son is just too sweet and gentle. People take advantage of him. You're sloppy and inefficient!
Gomez Addams : Sir, please tell her...
Lurch : You're sloppy and inefficient!
