- Mary Ingalls: Laura, are you asleep? Laura, answer me! Are you asleep?
- Laura Ingalls: Why do you do that?
- Mary Ingalls: Do what?
- Laura Ingalls: Tell me to answer you if I'm asleep. Because if I'm asleep, I would have to wake up to answer you and then I wouldn't be asleep anymore.
- Mary Ingalls: You know, you're right. From now on, I'll ask you if you're awake.

- Mary Ingalls: Laura, are you awake?
- Laura Ingalls: No.
- Lars Hanson: How is it that a beautiful girl like that puts her arms around you the first time she sees you?
- Dr. Hiram Baker: Irresistible impulse. Back East, I used to have to fight the women off.
- Lars Hanson: So... tell me, is this a meeting of the liar's club, or are we going to play pinochle?
- Dr. Hiram Baker: I play pinochle. I don't know what it is you play.
- Dr. Hiram Baker: I have an announcement to make, and I don't know why I'm being so formal. You're all my friends, and I want you to know I am the luckiest man in the world. I have asked this woman... Kate Thorvald... to be my wife.
- Charles Ingalls: What did she say?
- Dr. Hiram Baker: Oh, she said yes!
