- Penelope Smith-Haddon: Surely you can understand our desire to protect that history, especially in connection to George Washington.
- John Munch: George Washington?
- Penelope Smith-Haddon: George Washington... In 1793, he was traveling from Mount Vernon to Philadelphia. He stopped here.
- John Munch: He stopped here?
- Penelope Smith-Haddon: Of course, it was a residence at the time.
- Meldrick Lewis: George Washington slept here?
- Penelope Smith-Haddon: Well, no...
- John Munch: He had dinner?
- Penelope Smith-Haddon: No
- Meldrick Lewis: So what did he do here?
- Penelope Smith-Haddon: Apparently the President, just coming from a dinner party where he had consumed quite a bit of wine, was in something of a bind. He had no time to seek out a public chamber pot.
- John Munch: Are you telling us the reason we can't tear down the bathroom is that it's where George Washington once took a whizz?

- Al Giardello: You know, a woman once told me, 'I can never marry you because your nose is too big'.
- Megan Russert: ...Maybe, but I think you're making an unfair assumption, Al.
