Quotes 

• Henry Mitchell : You go sit in the corner and think about what you've done.

  Dennis : For how long?

  Henry Mitchell : Until you're sorry.

  Dennis : Oh good, I'm sorry now.

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : He can't sit in the corner, I have to take him to Margaret Wade's house.

  Dennis : [screams in horror scaring his parents]  Margaret's house? I didn't do anything bad enough to deserve to go to her house. She's a lunatic, I'll go crazy, she tortures me, she's mean, she's ugly, she doesn't share!

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : Honey, I made arrangements with Mrs. Wade for you to go to their house while I work.

  Dennis : Are you serious?

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : Well, you can't spend the summer unsupervised. You're out of school.

  Dennis : [loses it]  *I'll go back*!

  Henry Mitchell : You're mother made arrangements. That's it! I don't want any arguments!

  Dennis : [lightly bows his head on the table]  My life is falling apart.

• Dennis : [innocently]  Hi.

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : Did you shoot an aspirin into Mr.Wilson's mouth?

  Henry Mitchell : Oh god!

  Dennis : I didn't want him to bite off my fingers with his big, fake teeth. Those things are sharp!

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : [to Henry]  George said Dennis shot an aspirin into his mouth with a slingshot.

  Henry Mitchell : What slingshot?

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : Do you have a slingshot?

  Dennis : I'm not sure.

  Henry Mitchell : Give it to me.

  [Dennis sighs and hands over the slingshot] 

• Andrea : Hi, mom.

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : Good morning.

  Andrea : I hear you're trying to beg off the Oklahoma City trip.

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : I asked that it be rescheduled.

  Andrea : Have a Cub Scout meeting or something?

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : My husband has a trip at the same time. His was scheduled before mine.

  Andrea : So, if you and your husband travel at the same time, there's no one to watch your kid. Is that the problem?

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : It's not a problem, per se.

  Andrea : Oh, good. Because if you want to blow off your trip, I'm the one who has to cover for you, and I have plans I can't break. I don't have kids but I do have a life. I'm sorry. I'm just not gonna be able to help you.

  [Andrea leaves] 

  Mrs. Alice Mitchell : God...

• Mrs. Alice Mitchell : [while at a business meeting]  You see, when I go to the mall with my little boy, we can't get out unless we visit the toy store. I mean, he knows he's not gonna get anything unless it's a special occasion or something like that, but like every other little kid; he just wants to go in and look around.

  Andrea : Could you spare us the family anecdotes please?

• Mrs. Alice Mitchell : Hi. This is Alice Mitchell.

  Elderly Babysitter : Noooooo.
