Christine Penmark: You hit him with the shoes, didn't you? You hit him with the shoes, that's how he got those half moon marks on his forehead and on his hands. Answer me, Rhoda. ANSWER ME.
Leroy: You ask me and I say you don't even feel sorry for what happened to that little boy.
Rhoda: Why should I feel sorry? It was Claude Daigle who got drowned, not me.
Claudia Fern: Smooth the wrinkles from your brow my dear, your face is so much prettier when smiling.
Rhoda: You tell lies like that, you won't go to Heaven when you die.
Monica Breedlove: What has she DONE?
Christine Penmark: It isn't what she's done, it's what I've done.
Leroy: They got what they call stick bloodhounds to help them look. And them stick bloodhounds can find any stick there is that's got blood on it.
Hortense Daigle: He was such a lovely, dear little boy. He used to say I was his sweetheart and he was going to marry me when he grew up. I would laugh so. "No you won't. You'll forget about me long before then. You'll find a prettier girl and marry her." And do you know what he said then?"No, I won't. 'Cause there isn't a prettier girl in the whole world than you are."
Christine Penmark: Did she kill him? But she's my little girl. And I love her. Oh my baby, my baby.
Rhoda: I don't know what you're talking about. I don't feel ANY way at all.
Hortense Daigle: I'm drunk. It's a pleasure to stay drunk when your little boy's been killed.
Rhoda: What will you give me for a basket of kisses?
Col. Kenneth Penmark: A basket of kisses? Why, I'll give you a basket of hugs.
Hortense Daigle: Children can be nasty, don't you think?
Monica Breedlove: Oh, whatever will be done, will be done.
Rhoda: Why can't you wash off blood?
Leroy: Because you can't. And the police know it. You can wash it and you can wash it. There's always some left. Everybody knows that.
