:Homer: You really scared us there.
:Saleswoman: I'm sorry, but the truth is, your baby, Maggie Simpson, is dead. [Homer and Marge scream again] Dead tired of baby insurance agents not giving you a free estimate.
----
:[When the saleswoman crawls on the kitchen floor like a baby]
:Homer: [to Marge; referring to the saleswoman's butt] That's a pretty big caboose for a baby.
:Marge: Homer, don't be...[stares] wow, that is huge.
----
:Saleswoman: You see how quickly your baby could have been drinking this...[reads the label] Similac Baby Formula?

:Marge: [to Lisa] Why don't you try reaching out to this new girl? See if you two have a common interest.
:Lisa: Hmmm. Well, lots of people like jazz fusion. [starts playing her saxophone and Marge stops her]
:Marge: Okay, that's in the "maybe" file. What if you two bond over your Malibu Stacey dolls.
:Lisa: They're not dolls; they're "aspiration" figures. But it might work.
----
:Lisa: Uh, Francine? I think we got off to a bad start. [notices Francine is holding a Malibu Stacy doll] Hey! You like Malibu Stacy, too!
:Francine: Oh, yeah.
:Lisa: And you like the same one I like, with the grad student glamour pack. Just like the one in my... [sees that her locker door has been forced open] locker. That's mine, isn't it?

:Marge: How are you supposed to dial?
:Homer: Reach into these holes. I use a carrot. [holds one up]
:Marge: Isn't that a little excessive? I mean, how are the buttons dangerous?
:Homer: Baby could order poison.
:Marge: Oh, that's ridiculous. [Homer dials a number and then gives the receiver to Marge]

:Marge: Oh, I'm a horrible mother.
:Homer: Of course you are.

:Lisa: I just don't understand Francine's motivation.Why does she only go after the smart ones?
:Nelson: That's like asking the square root of a million. No one will ever know.

:Drederick Tatum: No, not at all, swab away. Whoa, whoa… nobody mentioned a beaker!
:Lisa: Please! It's for science!
:Drederick Tatum: Oh, for science? In that case, proceed.

:Scientist #1: My God, she's stopped in her tracks!
:Scientist #2: The little girl's invented some sort of bully repellent. [the crowd murmurs, astonished]
:Lisa: Actually, it's just ordinary salad dressing. [the crowd gasps]
:Marge: So that's where that went.
:Lisa: The pungent vinegar and tangy Roquefort block the smell receptors, rendering the bully harmless. [the crowd applauds]
