Memorable Moments

  • While Hank is "interacting" with the tolerance dolls, Ladybird grabs the black one and carries it outside, dropping it in the middle of Stroup's prayer circle, much to their horror. Peggy then slinks backs inside the house behind him, shutting the door.

Goofs

  • Peggy goes to answer the door, but there's no one outside but the prayer circle, which is too far away for anyone of them to have rung the doorbell.

Quotes

  • Bobby: Mom, why is Mister Dauterive kissing dad?
Peggy: Oh, Bobby, don't watch.
  • Nancy: We called 911, sug.
Dale: Wow, I can't believe how fast they've responded considerin' I didn't give 'em my real address.
  • Hank: What in the hell is going on?!
Bill: I smelled something comin' from your house. Not the usual smell of cooking, pine cleaner, happiness. It was gas!
  • Peggy: Now, honey, I know that this is hard for you, but after last night, we need a second opinion.
Hank: Peggy, I know I can fix it. Let me give it another shot.
Peggy: We can't risk it. I cannot bear the thought of going to sleep tonight and waking up with Bill slobbering on me again.
  • Mack: Uh-huh.
Hank: I said the same thing.
Mack: Mm. Interesting.
Hank: I find it interesting that you tapped the pipe with a three-quarter wrench instead of a five-eighth, but to each his own. I guess.
  • Mack: Mister Hill, did you know that I've been repairing water heaters and water heater accessories for over 20 years?
Hank: What a coincidence. I've been selling propane and propane accessories for over 20 years.
Mack: I bet we've both seen a lot of crazy things in our day, huh?
Hank: Boy, I know what you mean. I had this fella one time - nice fella, a chiropractor - (chuckling) he tried to use first-stage plastic tubing for a second-stage regulator.
Mack: I bet I can top that! I know a guy, installed a brand-new water heater without checking the old Gumson seals. Next thing he knew, he woke up on his own front lawn after his neighbour dragged him to safety. Nice fella. Propane salesman.
Hank: What? Are you referring to me? Was that a shot? That was a shot, wasn't it?
  • Bill: Yeah, Ladybird's so nice she'd let someone eat out of her own bowl. No matter how drunk they were. 'Course, I'm white.
  • Mack: Thank you for having me for lunch. Everything looks delicious.
Peggy: Well, thank you, Mack. It is.
  • Dale: There's only two ways to handle it, Hank. You either shoot her between the eyes Old Yeller style or you sneak up from behind and get her in the back of the head. Either way, it'll cost you ten bucks.
  • Peggy: Well, I'll tell you right now we cannot have that dog running amok, biting every black person she sees. It makes us look like ignorant rednecks. Oh, and it's bad for black people, too.
  • Roger: Look, I know you're not like that, but if it will make you feel better, you should take this Internet test my brother-in-law made us all take last Thanksgiving. It's a good test. Said I was "racially unbiased." And I love gay people. I didn't see that one coming, but I'm happy.
  • Peggy: Hank, Reverend Stroup loaned us a tool to help with our burden. And by virtue of my desire to be around black people, I will help guide you on the road to recovery.
Hank: What am I supposed to do with these?
Peggy: They're racial tolerance dolls. You practice interacting with them.
Hank: I will not play with dolls.
Peggy: Do you want me to tell Reverend Stroup you wouldn't even try?
Hank: (sighs) What do I have to do?
Peggy: The first step to recovery is to admit that you have a problem with black people.
Hank: But I don't. A man should not be judged by the colour of his skin, but by the actions--
Peggy: (slamming her hand) Admit it! Sorry, Hank, but it's part of the treatment. (slamming her hand) Now admit it!
  • Bobby: If you found those dolls in my room, I swear I've never seen them before.
Peggy: Relax, Bobby. They belong to your father.
Bobby: Dad plays with dolls?
Peggy: Mm-hmm.
Hank: No, I'm not playing with dolls. I'm, uh, interacting with them.
