She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not - S8-E2
Visible crew/equipment: After Jack talks to Larry about the magazine quiz Jack asks Janet if anything's been bothering her, and just as Terri walks out of the kitchen holding the two cans, a crew member's hand can be seen behind Terri placing a bag on the counter. (00:04:15)
Stanley Roper: I want my rent.
Helen Roper: Stanley, where are your manners? You're supposed to say hello when you walk into a room.
Stanley Roper: Hello, I want my rent.
Trivia: In the episode where Janet asks Jack if she's a bad kisser, take a look at Janet when he kisses her. Jack unexpectedly slip Janet his tongue (which surprises the audience as well) and that throws Janet off and shocks her. Her surprised face is not acting, and was really surprised he did that. You'll also notice that when they part, she can't keep a straight face.

Suggested correction: This does not happen, their kiss is closed and for 2 seconds and Janet doesn't ask about her kissing. She says before the kiss when they have few mishaps trying to kiss before the final kiss that no-one has ever picked her kissing before and his response was, "Just shut up and kiss me!" She responds, "Okay fine!" Then they kiss, mouth closed just lips.
Question: I never understood the meaning of the dialogue in a scene with the Ropers in the first episode. Stanley says to Helen something like "Too bad you're not from India - you'd be sacred there." Helen then comes back by saying "and contented." What did both of these phrases mean?
Answer: Mr. Roper was basically comparing Mrs. Roper to a cow, which is a sacred and highly revered animal among Hindus; Mrs. Roper's retort meant that she wasn't happy with her marriage or current station in life, so she'd be happier as a cow in India.
