- Florence Johnston: You should have dropped the "jack."
- Mrs. Van Morris: Well! Mrs. Jefferson, would you tell this woman to whom she is speaking?
- Louise Jefferson: Oh, why, certainly, Mrs. Van Morris.
- [to Florence]

- Mrs. Van Morris: You're asking up to leave?
- George Jefferson: [in mocking posh accent] No, of course not! I'm throwing you out!
