- Amy MacDougall: It's always the last place you look.
- Debra Barone: Of course it will be the last place I look because once I find it I won't have to look for it anymore!
- Debra Barone: I have a confession to make to you. RIght after we got engaged, I had the original stone replaced.
- [long pause]
- Ray Barone: What?
- Debra Barone: I mean when you asked me to marry you I was so happy, believe me, but... I mean I know you got the best stone you could afford bless your heart but like my parents weren't that crazy about you to begin with and I didn't want to show them that stone.
- Ray Barone: I understand.
- Debra Barone: You know my grandmother Abby? She'd given me her ring years before so I put that stone in your setting.
- Ray Barone: Do you remember how much that stone was worth? Just ballpark?
- Debra Barone: Sweetie, it's not important.
- Ray Barone: How important is it not?
- Debra Barone: What?
- Ray Barone: How much was old Abby's stone worth?
- Debra Barone: $15,000
- [Ray slowly falls to the floor as though he had been kicked in the groin]
- Debra Barone: I could just kill myself Ray.
- Ray Barone: This could be a murder-suicide.
- Ray Barone: [holding a flashlight and a stick of butter] Hey. Wanna play baker in the mineshaft?
- Debra Barone: Okay. But I get to be the baker this time.
