insurance salesman from Eugene Oregon, not the CEO of Microsoft! 

Abbie:  (Excited) I think getting a 'vette is a fabulous idea!  I mean, if you can afford it then why not? 

Pat:  Abbie!

Abbie:  What?  (To Russ)  'Vettes are my absolute favorite car on the planet.  What year are you gonna get?  (Stands and starts gathering dishes)

Russ:  (Excited) '63 split window fast back.  That is one hot little vehicle.

Hal: (In awe) Yeah?  What color you thinkin' about?

Russ:  Silver if I can find one.

Abbie:  Sounds awesome.  Can I drive it?

Russ:  If you come to Eugene you can…

Tracy:  What are you, nuts?  You need a Corvette like you need a…. a yacht!  I mean, you're being ridiculous.  (Angry)  Let's just drop it!

Hal:  Now be reasonable, sister dear.  What's wrong with wantin' a 'vette?

Pat:  (Cuts in) Butt out, Hal.  (Points to Abbie)  You too!

Abbie leaves the stage…

Hal:  In my humble opinion, every man should own at least one car of his dreams before he dies. 

Pat:  Oh really?  Well I think everyone woman should own a mink coat before she dies!  Maybe I'll add it to my Christmas list.

Hal: (Incredulous) What?  We live in Phoenix, Patricia!  What on earth would you do with a fur coat, wear it to bed?

Pat:  (Defensive) I might!

Hal:  On top of those raggedy ol' p.j.'s of yours?

Abbie returns…

Abbie:  Did I hear raggedy p. j.'s?  Do you need new jammys, Mom? 

Pat: Yeah, I guess I do.  But I'd rather have a mink.

Hal:  Don't hold your breath.

Tracy:  Did he ever give you that eternity ring he promised?

Hal:  Hey!  Now it's your turn to butt out!

Pat:  As a matter-of-fact, he never did!
