Julie Kavner: Marge Simpson

Quotes 

• [Homer tries to call Animal Control] 

  Phone Lady : [special information tone]  Your call cannot be completed as dialed. Please make sure you have the correct area code.

  Homer Simpson : Area code? But it's a local call.

  Marge Simpson : The phone company ran out of numbers, so they split the city into two area codes. Half the town keeps the old 636 area code, and our half gets 939.

  Homer Simpson : 939? What the hell is that? Oh, my life is ruined!

  Marge Simpson : Jeez, you just have to remember three extra numbers.

  Homer Simpson : Oh, if only it where that easy, Marge.

  [the badger growls from the kitchen window] 

  Homer Simpson : Go away! We got bigger problems now!

• Roger Daltrey : [deleted scene]  How are you doing out there, New Springfield?

  Marge Simpson : To be honest, it's a little chilly.

  [gets hit with a microphone] 

  Marge Simpson : Ow!

  Roger Daltrey : Shut the fuck up, Marge!

• Marge Simpson : We can't go on fighting with Olde Springfield. These people are our neighbors. We see them every day.

  Homer : You're right. We've got to block them from our sight with a giant wall.

  Marge Simpson : Like the one in Berlin?

  Homer : Good idea. We should call the guys they used.

  Marge Simpson : [dialing the phone, he gets the "wrong number" tri-tone]  Homer...

  Homer : [restraining his anger as the tone continues]  It's ringing.

• Marge Simpson : [after going shopping in Olde Springfield]  I don't know why, but I just didn't feel comfortable until I was back here in New Springfield with my own kind.

  Lisa Simpson : Mom!

  Marge Simpson : They were looking at me... with their eyes.

• Lisa Simpson : If you ask me...

  Homer : Stop right there.

  Lisa Simpson : It's stupid to divide the city over something as silly as an area code. It would be like you and mom splitting up every time you have a fight.

  Homer : Sweetie, you know your mother and I only stay together for the sake of my political career.

  Marge Simpson : That's not true!

  Homer : [spotting a paparazzo outside the kitchen]  Big grins!

  [kissing Marge's cheek as their picture is taken] 

  Homer : Mwah! That'll play great in the sticks.

  [finishing his coffee, he uses his "mayor" sash as a napkin; tearing it off, the one under it reads "time to reorder"] 

  Homer : Oh, that was 50 already?

• Apu : All right, root beer, bananas, and toilet paper. 50% out-of-towners' tax.

  Marge Simpson : Out-of-towner tax?

  Apu : I'm sorry, Mrs. Simpson, but we have to charge you foreign devils more.

  Marge Simpson : All right, but this better be the best toilet paper I've ever had.

  Apu : Oh, no worries there. That's Henderson's toilet paper.

  Marge Simpson : [squeezing it, impressed]  Ooh, why didn't you say so? Hey, is there a bathroom here?

  Apu : Not for you.

• Homer : [after a section of the wall separating the town is torn down]  Well, Marge, looks like your insane experiment is over.

  Marge Simpson : My experiment? You're the one who came up with this whole idea...

  [he makes her loopy with a chloroform-soaked rag]
