[first lines]
Joy Scroggs : Say 'Nana'. Say 'Nana', Wilbur, 'Nana'.
Elka Ostrovsky : It's official. Men of *all* ages ignore you.
Joy Scroggs : Look, some of the other babies in Wilbur's play group have already started talking. Actually, I was getting a little embarrassed so I knocked a few months off his age.
Mamie-Sue Johnson : You lied about a baby's age?
Victoria Chase : Ah, I wish my mother had done that for me. But, no... I'm a self-made thirty-something.

Melanie Moretti : How do I look?
Elka Ostrovsky : You're giving off a Joy vibe.
Melanie Moretti : Oh no, I don't want to look that slutty.
-
Melanie Moretti : Anyway, I want to look a little slutty. Tonight's the big night with Alec. And it has to be perfect. *I* have to be perfect. So I spent all day getting prepped, and tweezed, and waxed. My whole body's as smooth as a porpoise.
[Emmet has entered]
Melanie Moretti : Oh, hi. Emmet. I didn't know you were here.
Emmet : No need for embarrassment. Go on, you were saying: you're as smooth as a porpoise.
Melanie Moretti : Men like that, right?
Emmet : Well, it all depends. Sometimes you like the tightly mown lawn of an English country garden, and sometimes you like the steamy jungle of the Amazon rain forest.
Melanie Moretti : Oh no! What if Alec's an Amazon guy, and I destroyed the rain forest?
Emmet : Men are not nearly as judgmental as you think. We care more about response, and enthusiasm. If you like the show, let us know.
Elka Ostrovsky : Especially if you want an encore.

[last lines]
Joy Scroggs : Wilbur, Nana's home. Were you a good boy for Elka and Mamie-Sue?
Mamie-Sue Johnson : Oh, yes; we read Baby Shakespeare, listened to Baby Beethoven. I think both of them did better work as adults.
Joy Scroggs : Wilbur, darling, say 'Nana'. Na-na.
Baby Wilbur : Nana.
Joy Scroggs : Did you hear that? Wilbur just said his first word. And it was Nana.
Mamie-Sue Johnson : Well, actually his first word wa...
Elka Ostrovsky : Zip it.
Victoria Chase : I'm on a film mission. Now, have him do a second take.
Joy Scroggs : Wilbur, say it again. Say 'Nana'.
Baby Wilbur : TV.
Melanie Moretti : Did he just say 'TV'?
Elka Ostrovsky : I heard 'Nana'.
Baby Wilbur : TV.
Elka Ostrovsky : That's from Baby Shakespeare. TV or not TV.
Joy Scroggs : Owen and I made it very clear: no TV, no processed sugar, watch your language.
Baby Wilbur : Crap!
Elka Ostrovsky : That is us watching our language.
Joy Scroggs : That's it; you two are off the baby-sitting list. You are never watching Wilbur again.
Baby Wilbur : Bitch!
Elka Ostrovsky : I got nothing.
