Cloris Leachman: Helen
Quotes
-
Ed : Did it ever dawn on any of you that there was something queer about that dough?
Inez : Dawned on me.
Dottie : What do you mean?
Ed : The cops didn't cordon off the neighborhood. They didn't pound on our doors and give us 24 hours to turn it in or charge us with theft. That was a lot of dough, and nobody ever came after it.
Helen : Well, if they show up now, they're thirty years late and thirty three hundred dollars short.
Inez : Double that. Every cent I got is tied up in "Ace Dealers School", the best dealers' school in Winnemucca.
Ed : How many dealers' schools in Winnemucca?
Inez : I've cornered the market.

Helen : Aren't you two forgetting a little something?
Rita : Please, Ma, just keep Ramona for a little while. This is our chance for the bigtime. You know how good we are.
Helen : Good for nothing is what you are. You gave up your chance for the big time when you got in the back seat with Mr. Hotblood Italian, can't control himself. Why couldn't you have dated some nice Irish boy...
Rita : Like the nice Irish boy who knocked you up and took off...
Helen : I wanted more for you!
Rosalie : You have to give the money back.
Tony : Momma, I am not giving it back!
Dottie : I could go to beauty school.

Helen : "Grannies In Need"?
Bunny : Whether you sell a raffle ticket or not, you ask for a donation. At the end of the day, you dump out the can and buy yourself raffle tickets.
Helen : Isn't that stealing?
Bunny : Are you a Granny? Are you in need of raffle tickets? If you made more of an effort to keep up, Helen, you'd know it's called Creative Accounting.

Helen : Stay away from that big lug. He's been here for years. That's Two-Digit Doyle.
Two-Digit Doyle : I wasn't always like this. I used to be Five-Digit Doyle!
