- Cory Matthews: Topanga, you know those terrible dreams I've been having?
- Topanga Lawrence: Yeah.
- Cory Matthews: Well, they're, don't get mad, about marriage. They're... don't get mad, anti-marriage dreams. You... don't get mad, you don't come out so well.
- Topanga Lawrence: Why not?
- Cory Matthews: Well, last night, for example, I had this dream that you and I, we got married and we wound up in the poor house. You know how I know? Big, big sign on the front, "The Poor House." And inside, it sounded like people were being beaten. And there was this execution room called the Topanga Room and the executioner was you! And all the chopped-off heads in the head basket were me!
- Topanga Lawrence: Are we getting married or not?
- Cory Matthews: Yeah, I'm just talking.
- Alan Matthews: People love my impressions.
- Amy Matthews: Oh, please. No one even knows when you're doing one.
- Cory Matthews: [to Topanga's parents] Maybe I should go...
- Jedediah Lawrence: No, no, Cory. Please, you stay. If you stay, I don't think...
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Your father and I argue a lot.
- Jedediah Lawrence: That she'd actually say anything in front of you.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Topanga, haven't you ever wondered why we let you stay here when we moved to Pittsburgh?
- Cory Matthews: Because of me.
- Topanga Lawrence: Because you didn't want to take me away from my last year of high school.
- Cory Matthews: And Cory.
- Topanga Lawrence: Because you didn't want to rip me away from my friends.
- Cory Matthews: Me.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Daddy and I thought we could work things out better if we took some time by ourselves.
- Topanga Lawrence: Work what out? There's nobody like you two. You two are so in love.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Topanga, people change.
- Topanga Lawrence: Daddy, why is Mom talking like this?
- Jedediah Lawrence: We didn't want to dump this on you. We wanted to wait until after the wedding.
- Topanga Lawrence: [starting to cry] No.
- Jedediah Lawrence: Honey, look, we tried. We tried as hard as we...
- Topanga Lawrence: You guys will get through this.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Marriage is not something to get through, Topanga! That's not why I got married.
- Topanga Lawrence: [crying] Oh, God. No, God. Oh, God.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Oh, sweetheart, I'm... Your daddy and I...
- [Topanga leaves the room in tears]
- Jedediah Lawrence: Maybe we just got married too young.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Jed!
- [to Cory]
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Not you. This has nothing to do with you.
- Topanga Lawrence: [to Cory] Oh, by the way, my parents are coming into town to discuss the wedding.
- Cory Matthews: Oh, by the way, my parents are coming into town? "Oh, by the way, captain Titanic, this ship's in two pieces!"
- Cory Matthews: [as he rushes into the house] Big trouble!
- Amy Matthews: Cory, Mr. Feeny and Lila are getting married in our living room.
- Cory Matthews: I'm thrilled for you, Feeny. Now, get out and take your chick with you.
- Alan Matthews: Cory, have you lost your mind?
- Cory Matthews: The in-laws are coming.
- George Feeny: We're outta here.
- Amy Matthews: [while singing to the baby] Hush little baby, don't say a word. Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird...
- Cory Matthews: Uh, no she ain't, Ma. Not tonight.
- Eric Matthews: My life sucks, Shawnie. I lost my apartment. My apartment! I lost Rachel. Rachel! I lost my best friend, Jack. Rachel! And now I'm about to lose Feeny to that mean old lady. Jack!
- Shawn Hunter: Well, Eric, I lost something that means more to me than any of that and I managed to survive.
- Eric Matthews: You mean your dead dad, Shawn?
- Shawn Hunter: You're a sensitive guy.
- Topanga Lawrence: [to her parents] So while you guys are here, we want you to come down and see the hall where we want to get married. It is so beautiful, Mom.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: We will, honey.
- Amy Matthews: We never actually had a hall. We eloped.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: You did?
- Alan Matthews: Yeah, her folks didn't think I'd amount to anything, but I guess we showed them, huh, honey?
- Amy Matthews: I guess. Twenty three years of happiness, brand-new baby, these babies getting married. Yeah, we showed 'em.
- [she and Alan kiss each other]
- Topanga Lawrence: [to her parents] What about you guys? Did Grandma and Grandpa think you guys would make it?
- Rhiannon Lawrence: Yeah, they thought we would make it.
- [getting tearful]
- Rhiannon Lawrence: They thought we would be together forever.
- Jedediah Lawrence: Don't.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: So did I.
- Jedediah Lawrence: Oh, honey.
- Topanga Lawrence: Mom?
- Jedediah Lawrence: I'm sorry.
- [starting to cry]
- Jedediah Lawrence: Look, Rhiannon, not now.
- Topanga Lawrence: Mom, why are you crying like this? You're scaring me.
- Rhiannon Lawrence: I thought I could get through this, but I can't. I'm so sorry.
- Amy Matthews: No, actually, you know what, it's time to feed the baby. Alan, why don't you come help me feed the baby.
- Alan Matthews: How can I help you feed the...?
- Amy Matthews: Alan.
- Alan Matthews: Oh, yes, of course. I'm sure I can help. Excuse us.
- [he and Amy leave the room]
