Sterling Script Lines - S3: Episode 5
1) Lane, to Don, about Creative: They waste paper because they use it to sop up spilled drinks right after their afternoon naps.
2) Dennis, to Don about his son: You throw the ball around? Don: Not enough. 3) Dennis: This is a fresh start. I don't know who's up there, but I'm saying this to you: I'm gonna be better. I'm gonna be a better man. 4) Betty, in the "fog": I left my lunch pail on the bus, and I'm having a baby. 5) Gene, to Betty: You'll be okay. You're a housecat. You're very important, and you have little to do. 6) Betty, looking at the new baby: His name is Eugene. Don: We don't have to decide that now. 7) Pete, to Duck: If you want to woo me, you'll have to buy me my own lunch. 8) Hollis, in response to Pete stopping the elevator and pestering him about why he bought an RCA TV: We have bigger problems than TV, okay? 9) Don, to Sally: Not all surprises are bad 10) Peggy, to Don: You have everything. And so much of it. |

14:13 Hang in there, Bets.
17:35 You throw the ball around? Not enough.
24:55 I don't want him. I don't know him. I want my doctor.
28:19 If something happens to her I just don't know what I'd do. And there'd be that baby. How could I love that baby?
