Margene: Hey, guys… whose baby is this?
Bill: Girls! Girls! I have some big news for the family — please sit! [ the women sit ] Now, a man couldn’t ask for three finer Mormon wives than YOU! Barb… with your steady hand, and your menopause —
Barb: Thank you.
Bill: And Nicolette… with your beloved voice —
Nicolette: I ALREADY know I have a BEAUTIFUL voice, Bill!
Bill: And Margene — dear, sweet Margene. Oh, Sweetie? Sweetie, I think you blinked and you forgot to open your eyes again.
Margene: [ she opens her eyes ] Oh! It was DARK in there!
Bill: Now, the three of you mean the WORLD to me! We are a beautiful family… and we’re about to become even MORE beautiful.

Margene: He’s not even talking!
Bill: Okay, ladies… ladies, look! Look, I know all of this is sudden, all of you must have questions. Let’s hear them!
Barb: Okay… here’s a question: Is that a man?
Bill: [ angered ] Jealousy doesn’t become you, Barb!
Margene: But, if that’s not a man… why is he shaving?
