Norman: It was a passive/aggressive masterpiece.
Norman: Claire, I don't know how to apologize to you for what I've done. But if you give me another chance, I promise you, I'll spend the rest of my life making you glad that you did. Please.
[Hearing the neighbors next door]
Claire Spencer: What is he doing to her?
Norman: I guess they are making up.
[starts shutting the window]
Claire Spencer: Wait! Leave it open.
Norman: Do you think we can take them?
Claire Spencer: It's worth a try.
[Norman opens
all the windows]
Jody: [on the phone] What's he doing?
Claire Spencer: [on the phone, while spying on the neighbor] Eating dinner alone. TV dinner!
Jody: Oh, that's bad.
[Jody's door bell rings]
Jody: That's my shiatsu guy. Listen, I gotta run. Call me back later, if he starts in on some serial killer desert, like lady
fingers!
Claire Spencer: You got it.
Claire Spencer: Norman's father had this old stuffy... stately place on a lake.
Norman: Which we're renovating.
Claire Spencer: Practically gutted.
Norman: No, we didn't.
Claire Spencer: Yes, we did.
Norman: "Gutted"?
Claire Spencer: I want you to answer one question. Did you have anything to do with her disappearance?
Norman: Yes. I had an affair with her. And when I tried to break it off... she became unstable. She came out here to the house. She threatened to kill herself... or you. I didn't think she'd go through with any of it. But then she... She disappeared.
Claire Spencer: She's awake.
Norman: We'll be quiet. Quick and quiet.
Claire Spencer: I don't want to be either.
Claire Spencer: Hello, Doctor Spencer.
Norman: Mrs. Spencer.
Claire Spencer: Forbidden fruit. You got a problem with that?
Jody: I stopped at this little café to get a coffee, and I see Norman sitting in the back. But he wasn't alone. It was a young blonde woman. I didn't see her face. And I didn't think anything of it at first. And I was walking over to say hello. And they started arguing in such a way that it stopped me.
