Mollie : That's it! You have some exotic baby disease, and I look like I could play the lead in "Night of the Living Dead", and your father deserted us so that he could pork his interior decorator. I think you can safely say that it can't get any worse.
Rosie : [coming through the front door] Hello-o!
Mollie : I was wrong.
-
Rosie : What?
Mollie : Ma, I thought you'd be happy.
Rosie : How could you do such a thing?
Mollie : It was easy. I went to the clinic and got some frozen sperm. I brought it home, defrosted it, inserted it, and... and I'm pregnant.
Rosie : So that's it? Now you and the frozen pop are having a baby.
Mollie : Ma, it's not a frozen pop.
Rosie : It's not a husband. (Looks at her husband). Louie, you hear this?
Mollie : Ma, you were the one who told me that I could control my life, and I made a decision. I want to have a baby.
Rosie : I don't understand this. This is the kind of thing a girl does if she's very ugly or a lesbian. This is not the act of a beautiful, intelligent girl who can have any man she wants.
Mollie : Ma, you never liked any of my boyfriends anyway.
Rosie : Where did the sperm come from? I mean, who's the supplier?
Mollie : A medical student.
Rosie : And?
Mollie : He goes to Colombia. His parents live on the island. His father's in piece goods, his mother works for a cosmetics firm. Ma, she'd get you a great discount.
Rosie : So you're making fun of me, huh? You'll see. Someday, you'll have children.

Mollie : Ma, what would you have done if Daddy was married when you first met him?
Rosie : I wouldn't have fallen in love.
Mollie : Well, you can't control who you fall in love with.
Rosie : Why not?
Mollie : You just can't!
Rosie : Listen. Listen, take your father here. What's his favorite food?
Together : Cheesecake.
Rosie : What did Dr. Slocum tell him?
Mollie : Cut back on cholesterol.
Rosie : So, now he doesn't eat cheesecake. It's the same exact thing.
