Nadine: Ed!! You waiting for those drapes to hang themselves?
§ Upon awakening from her coma, her body pumping ‘record amounts of adrenalin’, Nadine reaches for Big Ed’s hand and squeezes. Ed winces. Nadine begins babbling about getting back to school for cheerleader tryouts.
Ed: Huh??
§ Nadine who’s just torn off a kitchen cupboard door, returns to the living room, looking more than a tad confused.
Ed to James: Doc Hayward said to roll with the punches...
§ Nadine: Hi Eddie, I’m home! It is NEAT having the place all to ourselves! Pretend it’s
ours, like we’re married or something!
Ed: Well, we can do that.
Nadine: There’s some OTHER stuff we can do too!
Ed: Like what, Nadine?
Nadine: YOU know, silly!
(Nadine gives Ed what would be a playful jab from anyone
else- from her it serves to double Ed over in bug-eyed pain.)
§ Nadine crushes a sturdy milkshake glass like a Styrofoam cup in the Double R.
Norma: Oh Nadine!
Nadine: There goes ANOTHER one...
Norma: There must have been a crack in the glass from before.
Ed: Don't count on it.
§ Nadine at Leland’s funeral:
Eddie, can you see my underpants in my shoes? I looked
down and I thought I could see the reflection. Do you think boys are looking up my dress?
Ed: Sweetheart, I can’t see a thing in your shoes, I promise.
§ Hank makes an error in judgment and timing as
he swaggers in to clean Ed’s clock.
Nadine returns, takes exception to Hank’s activities
and lays a savage beating on Jennings.
(Jennings later
claims to have been hit by a bus.)
The puzzled and not altogether unpleased expression on Mike’s face when he comes up for air suggests he might be willing to
rethink the whole ‘dating’ issue.
§ Arriving home unexpectedly, Nadine’s grand entrance consists of tearing the bedroom
door off its hinges and catching Ed and Norma mid-snog.
Obliviously, Nadine muses (going so far as to climb into bed, fully clothed to chat more
comfortably with ol’ Big Ed and Norma):
Know what? I know about you guys, and it’s
really, really okay... you guys can go ahead and do whatever you want. I am completely
cool about all of this....
§ You have to love Mike and Nadine’s transparent “conservative older couple” disguise,
as they check into the Great Northern for a night neither will soon forget.
Tempestuous
Nadine rings impatiently for room keys and the concierge is left staring with amazement
at the flattened hunk of metal.
§ Ed: Norma and me are planning on getting married.
Nadine: Really? Well, that’s wonderful, Eddie. CUZ MIKE AND ME ARE GETTING
MARRIED TOO!!
(audible sounds of bones snapping emanate from Nadine’s grip on Mike’s
hand. Tears start welling in Mike’s eyes and he begins screaming in pain.)
