Quote
“- Ward: Beth, we don't want anything from you; Audrey, Cal, Connie and Me, we just want you to be happy.
- Beth Jarrett: Happy! Ward, you tell me the definition of happy. But first you better make sure your kids are good and safe, that they haven't fallen of a horse, been hit by a car, or drown in that swimming pool you're so proud of!
- Audrey: Oh, Beth!
- Beth Jarrett: Then, you come and tell me how to be happy!”
