Father and son discuss upcoming plans
Sam Baldwin:
I'm leaving first thing in the morning, but I'm only gonna be gone one night. Clarisse is gonna be here. So, you'll be able to see plenty of Geraldo and Nightmare on Elm Street, 12 I will never know.
Jonah Baldwin:
Are you going with her?
Sam Baldwin:
I'm going with Victoria. Yes.

Don't try anything tricky, understand?

Don't go rolling in poison ivy as soon as I leave the house. You lock yourself in a closet or do anything, make sure you'll need stitches. If your finger falls off, it's staying off. No one's gonna pack it on ice and take you to the hospital, so you can be a breakthrough in laser surgery. Is this about that woman in Baltimore?
Jonah Baldwin:
Annie.
Jonah Baldwin:
I don't care what you do!
Sam Baldwin: [sees Jonah standing in the doorway]
Good! Fine! I'll tell you what I'm doing this weekend, I'm getting laid. It's the 1990's and nobody's getting laid. I'm the only man in America who's getting laid this weekend and I haven't been laid that much. Six girls in college, maybe seven. How long have you been standing there?
Jonah Baldwin:
Forever.
Sam Baldwin:
What did you just hear me say?

Six girls in college, maybe seven.

Seven... EIGHT! Mary Kelly.

Jonah, the fact is, you're not gonna like any woman, because that isn't your mother.
Jonah Baldwin:
How do you know?! What's wrong with Annie?!
Sam Baldwin:
Oh, Jonah, shut up!
Jonah Baldwin:
Shut up? Shut up?! Mom never said "shut up" to me! Mom never yelled at me!
Sam Baldwin:
This conversation is finished.
Jonah Baldwin:
Why can't we go to New York?
Sam Baldwin: [[w:Fatal Attraction|Fatal Attraction]
There is no way that we're going on a plane to meet some woman who could be a crazy, sick lunatic! Didn't you see ]?

You wouldn't let me!
