Carmela Soprano : This gay nonsense their teaching. I am sorry but Billy Budd is not a homosexual book
Meadow Soprano : Actually, it is mother

Carmela Soprano : What're you talking about?
Meadow Soprano : I know you were kind of mad at me the other night
Carmela Soprano : Why would I be mad?
Meadow Soprano : I don't know. Anyway, the reason I called it's kind of near my birthday and I was thinking we'd do our tradition? Go to The Plaza for tea, under Eloise's picture?
Carmela Soprano : Really? That's wonderful
Meadow Soprano : Are you crying?
Carmela Soprano : I'm just happy, that's so thoughtful
Meadow Soprano : [referring to her skiing trip with Finn] I was thinking tomorrow. It's the only day I have left before I go to Canada

Meadow Soprano : Where'd you park?
Carmela Soprano : There's a lot over on 57th St., is that ok, or would you like to lecture me on parking too?
