Willie: Salina Magee is in Pasadena. For good! She called me at work.

[Nancy and Kate walk out of a store]
Nancy: Okay, one more stop and then I'll buy you a special lunch.
Kate: If you buy one more thing, you won't be able to afford lunch.
Nancy: No, I haven't splurged in ages, and Timmy needs every single thing I bought him.
Kate: Of course he does, darling. What California child could possibly manage without a blue raincoat and matching boots?

Nancy (looking through jewelry-store window): Isn't that Fred Hogan?
Kate: Oh yes, it is. I wonder if Elaine's around, maybe they'd join us for lunch.
Nancy: Hey, look at that... Look what he's getting -- I don't think that's for Elaine.
Kate: It's a pendant, isn't it?
Nancy: Yeah, but it's not the kind you wear around your neck. These are very big now -- you sorta wear them around your hips, and the heart kind of... rests... there.
Kate: You're right, it's not for Elaine.
