Donna: "Jeff, why don't you go out and buy another old bus. I miss looking out the window at an unsightly rotting hunk of steel parked in front of our house...!"

Donna, to Alex:

"Alex, if you want your waiting room area to feel authentic, the magazines you have in there need to be about a decade old...!"

Alex: "One of the buttons on your blouse isn't fastened, Mrs. Jones. Please fix it, I can't risk Donna noticing and finding out we fooled around while your son was preoccupied in my waiting room..."

Mary Stone: "Mother, did you know that a girl hid under Jeff's bed recently?"

Donna: "I can't be bothered with that right now, Mary. I just found lipstick on your father's collar, and it's not my shade...!"

Donna and Alex set Jeff down for a talk.

Donna: "Jeff, have you noticed that Trisha bears a striking resemblance to you?"
Alex: "The truth is, I fathered both of you with an unwed young Hispanic woman named Juanita I had flings with since meeting her when I was in medical school..."

Donna: "Mary, Jeff, this would be a good time to schedule your physicals. Your father has several openings over the next week or two..."

Mary: "Shouldn't I be going to a gynecologist instead?"

Jeff: "Fine for you Mary, but I'm stuck with a quack doctor father...!"

Donna: I'll call Dr. Kelsey. As you know, your father is a quack.

Donna (vacuuming under the couch, as Alex is napping): Alex, lift your leg.

Jeff: "No Trisha, despite what you may think, the fact that we bear a striking resemblance to each other and have exactly the same hair color means absolutely nothing..."
