Daily Golden Girls: 02/22/12
Dorothy: Hi, ma. Where are you going? Sophia: To the boardwalk. I like to watch the old guys rearrange themselves when they come out of the water.

Blanche: Blanche Devereaux's going on a diet.
Sophia: Could you hold off until tomorrow? I've got some Sara Lee stock I'd like to unload.

Detective: I'd just like to ask her a few questions.
Sophia: I've got nothing to hide, copper, or do you prefer flatfoot or gumshoe?
Dorothy: Before my mother lost it completely she watched a lot of James Cagney.
Sophia: They colorized him! Can you believe it? Let the man rest. He's got hair the color of roses and more rouge than Blanche!

Rose: I can't believe it. Raymond called— he's got the flu and he can't take me to the big Valentine's Day dance. I guess I'll be keeping you company, Dorothy.
Dorothy: Why do you automatically assume I don't have a date?
Sophia: She assumes there are seven days in a week!

Blanche: I sure hope this weekend is a success; It could give me a shot at becoming Kendall Nesbitt's new assistant!
Rose: Who's Kendall Nesbitt?
Blanche: Oh, he's the museum's director of acquisitions. If I got this job it would mean going to Europe with him, to look for rare paintings and antiques!
Sophia: Well, if he has an eye for antiques you should be a shoo-in.

Blanche: It's going to be different this time. See, I'm on this drink-it-off diet. You have two shakes and a sensible meal every day. You lose weight the fast, easy way!
Sophia: I prefer the Italian diet: You drink a bottle of wine, make a smart remark, then get your jaw wired.

Sophia: So, this is life on the outside. It's changed— you've all gotten so old!
Dorothy: Ma, knock if off. You were gone an hour. If anyone's upset, it should be me! I had to dig up the bail money.
Sophia: Please, how do you put a price tag on getting your mother back? What was it, five hundred dollars?
Dorothy: Five thousand.
Sophia: Wow, I better improve my attitude around here.

Detective: Mrs. Petrillo, were you acquainted with the late Maria Hargrove?
Sophia Petrillo: She died? Good riddance! God rest her soul...
Detective: We have a deathbed confession from her stating that the two of you started the Shady Pines fire.
Dorothy: What? That's ridiculous! (to Sophia) What did you do?!?
Detective: She claimed that on the night of the fire the two of you were in your room cooking s'mores.
Sophia: Nonsense, I don't even know what s'mores are.
Rose: You remember, Sophia! They're those little toasted graham cracker and chocolate sandwiches.
Sophia: With marshmallow, don't forget the marshmallow! Whoops...

Miles: You know what, ladies, what do you say we take a raincheck on the poetry reading?
Sophia: I'd say no dice, doesn't rain check mean we'd have to come back?

Rose: Oh, Dorothy, a man called for you while you were out.
Sophia: Finally, now we can break out that bottle of champagne we've been saving!
Dorothy: Ma...
Sophia: C'mon, Dorothy, we might not get another chance!

This isn’t a quiz (I don’t think there are any wrong answers) but a poll: If Sophia Petrillo was real, and you took her to a bar that served everything, what do you think her drink of choice would be? Message me with your opinion!

Sophia: I'd give to all my children. Except Phil.
Dorothy: Why not Phil?
Sophia: Because he never calls, he never writes. I only hear from him at Christmas when he sends me a cheddar cheese Nativity scene. I'm Catholic, I can't spread a wise man on Ritz cracker!

Rose: Well sure, there are problems, but can't we just pray they'll go away by themselves?
Sophia: You haven't.
