- Charlie Hume: [voice over] Who else do we have down there?
- Lou Grant: Billie and Margaret.
- Charlie Hume: We have a reporter named Margaret?
- Lou Grant: No, a publisher.
- Charlie Hume: Oh, yeah...
- Billie Newman: What do these things have in common? Star Wars, Charlie Brown, the Beatles, All in the Family, the Washington Post and the L.A. Trib?
- Lou Grant: They all make a lot of money, except the Trib.
- Billie Newman: They're all banned in Malaqua, among other things.
- Lou Grant: [takes the list] It's kind of an honor. This is the classiest list since the White House enemies.
- Amanda Baroja: Margaret, I want you to meet my nephew, Juan Luis. One of the worst playboys at UCLA.
- Juan Luis: Abendita, I'm one of the best playboys.
- Mrs. Pynchon: [to Charlie] I received your resignation in the mail this morning. I read it right after a letter offering me five dollars off on my next engine tune up. I threw the resignation in the trash, but I saved the coupon for the engine tune up. You never know, it might come in handy.
