O'Neill: [referring to Steve and Addison, who were arguing in Addison's office] Well, are they still at it?
Margaret Banks: They've been in there a long time, do you think everything is all right?
O'Neill: Well, they quit yelling at each other, that's something.
Margaret Banks: I never saw Steve so violent, and I feel maybe that I'm responsible.
O'Neill: Oh, he'll be all right, as soon as he gets it out of his system.
Margaret Banks: It's too quiet all of a sudden to suit me... supposing you just poked your head in the door, huh?
O'Neill: Not me, lady, not me. I know those birds too well to interfere in their family quarrels. Heh, they have these fights about twice a week just to prove they're not effeminate, but they always wind up in each other's arms, singing "Mother Machree"...
Margaret Banks: Even so, I can't help worrying about Steve... he's *such* a kid.
O'Neill: You know, Margie, I think you were miscast. You should've been his mother.
