Ernie Douglas: Do you think the house is going to miss us?

Steve Douglas: I'd like to think the house is going to miss us, Charley.

Charley O'Casey: Look, are we going to California, or are we going to stand here waving bye-bye to a pile of lumber?

From "Rough on Dodie":

Chip agrees to play house with Dodie until his friend comes to pick him up.

Dodie: Ok, I'm the mother, Myrtle's the baby, and you're the grandfather!

They sit on the couch and Dodie pretends to feed Myrtle a bottle then hands Myrtle over to Chip to burp.

Chip; Boy, this is a first!

Dodie: Huh?

Chip: (grins) I've never been a grandfather before and I've never burped my own hand!

Dodie: (Suddenly glares at Chip): Stop flipping your ashes on the floor, Grandpa, I work like a dog around here!

From "It's a Woman's World"

After putting Dodie to bed, Barbara tells Steve that Dodie is upset that neither Chip, Ernie, nor Uncle Charley will play the tree in her school play.
Steve thinks it over for a second then goes into Dodie's room.

Steve: Hey, Dodie, uh..Mama tells me you're looking for a tree. What kind of tree do you want, a poplar? A maple?

Dodie: Any kind.

Steve: Do you think I might be a good tree?

Dodie: (adorable huge grin with missing front teeth): DADDY!!... she and Steve hug.

Steve: (chuckling) Hey, not so hard, you'll bend my trunk!

And...cue the tissue box, because that scene always brings tears to my eyes. It is so sweet.

Robbie: I'm just thinking about how much I love you.....and my three sons.

That's a nice quote...from the episode where Rob is shocked by Katie's delivery of triplets.

I liked it when the family was fawning over the first baby, in the hospital, and Rob didn't know there were more:

Nurse: Oh, Mr. Douglas....Mr. Douglas!

Another one....etc. And they all fawn over that one.

Oh, Mr. Douglas....Mr. Douglas!

Another one...etc. Then Rob says, There aren't any more, are there?

"I see Paris, I see France, I see Dodie's underpants!"

Dodie (at dining table, of Fergus): Man, mama, I don't know what he's talking about most of the time.

Charley: That makes two of us.

Barbara: I, uh, I think Mr. Douglas means, none of you eat until I've been served, and I think it's a lovely idea.

Fergus: Them that have food, may now eat.

Charley: Well, thanks. Say, I been breathing all day without your permission. Did I do wrong?
