  Ricky Stratton : Well, it's probably because me and Kate ae friends. But her and my dad - they just have a business relationship.

  [she turns and stares into his eyes] 

  Ricky Stratton : ...And that - that's all they have... nothin' personal goin' on there.

  [she leans in, fixing her gaze and scrutinizing him] 

  Ricky Stratton : ...No sirree, Bob... Nope... Boy, it's hot in here.

• Ricky Stratton : [showing Kate's mother their photo album]  You have to promise not to look at the ones of me in my bassinet; they're X-rated.

  [to Ricky]

  [to Kate] 

  Edward Stratton III : Must be some reason you haven't told her about us?

  [to Ricky] 

  Edward Stratton III : And if it happens again, you're grounded, buster.
