A Reluctant Parent's Firm Decision
Stanley Banks:
Now look Ellie, I know how anxious you've been to get your hooks into that baby, but the answer is NO. I've been through all that you know, the two o'clock feedings, the colic and the measles & all the rest of it & I'm not going through all of it again, especially with somebody else's baby
Ellie Banks:
It wouldn't be like that, Stanley, it'll be fun to have a baby
Stanley Banks:
You can go over and see the baby at their apartment when they get it all washed & ironed, but it's not coming here and THAT'S FINAL!
