  • DJ: (at the Lunch Box talking to his friend about Jackie) She's new.

  • Roseanne: (explaining to her cousin, Ronnie why she's held a grudge against her) You-you were suppose to go to New York, and, then, I was suppose to follow, and you were gonna get an apartment, and I was gonna come live with you, and, ya know, it was gonna be like "That Girl".

  • Roseanne: I was wrong to hate you all these years for not letting me be a bridesmaid at your wedding when there's a perfectly good reason to hate you...you're a bitch!
