- [Jerry, Barbara and Tom have been to see the musical society's production of The Sound of Music]
- Tom: I mean... I mean... That *was* The Sound of Music wasn't it?
- Jerry: Possibly.
- Tom: I wondered. For a moment I thought we'd strayed into the Folies Bergères.
- Barbara: You mean the sunrise scene where all the nuns realized they were in see-through habits?
- Tom: Yes. I never really believed in them after that. Why did Margo sing Maria?
- Jerry: It's the name of the character she was playing.
- Tom: I know, but I thought the song came from West Side Story.
- Barbara: It did.
- Boy in Play: Overture and learners, please. Overture and learners.
- Margo: [screaming] Overture and beginners, you ghastly little child!
- Margo: So much for James and Maggie Preston. At least we won't have to listen to any more of those interminable stories about her womb.
- Margo: [preparing to go on stage for a performance of The Sound of Music] Don't trip over the mountains. Don't trip over the mountains...
- Tom: Just tell me one thing, will you? When you say "If Jerry has learned his lesson," you mean if he comes crawling back on all fours, licks your boots and says sorry for being a naughty boy?
- Andrew: Yes, I suppose I do in so many words.
- Tom: Cor! And just what the hell do give him back in exchange?
- Andrew: $18,000 a year, an expense account and a company car. Good night.
