- Becky Conner-Healy: I really have a bad feeling about this.
- Beverly Harris: Don't talk that way, Becky. As Louise Hays says, you must learn to turn the negative into a positive.
- Roseanne Conner: Yeah, you should listen to your grandma, Becky. Apparently being gay means more than wanting to wear flannel shirts and Birkenstocks. It also makes you smarter.
- Darlene Conner-Healy: I don't know why this is happening. I never smoke or drank and I only did drugs once.
- Mark Healy: And that was a long time ago.
- Darlene Conner-Healy: Maybe I ate the wrong stuff...
- Mark Healy: You're a vegetarian. You're the healthiest eater I know.
- Darlene Conner-Healy: Well, if it's nothing physical, then I must have done something wrong and now I'm being punished.
- Jackie Harris: [to the baby] I remember when I was about 5 and we were riding in the car, and I was leaning up against the door, and suddenly the door just flew open, and I was falling out of the car. I remember because I could see the road rushing right below me, so I was literally outside of the car. And out of nowhere, Mom reached over and pulled me back in by my hair... and, if you ever feeling like you're falling away, you don't have to worry because we'll be right there to pull you right back in.
- Dan Conner: Look David, I'm no philosopher, I know there's good... and there's bad. Nobody thinks the bad stuff will ever happen to them. And when it does, they think they'll never get through it. But then it's the next day, and the next day, and then it's a week, and then it's a month, and a year later you look back, "Hey, I got through that, I don't know how I did it, but I got through it".
- David Healy: You didn't do anything wrong.
- Darlene Conner-Healy: Well, I must have, David! Because if there's nothing physically wrong with me, and I didn't do anything morally wrong, than nothing makes any sense! Why do I deserve this?
- David Healy: No. No! Look at me. You don't deserve this. Ok? You do NOT deserve this. I do not deserve this. Our baby does not deserve this. These things happen. Ok? No one deserves them. Ok?
