Dialogue[edit]
- David Harris: I would like to propose a toast. First of all, I would like to thank Susan, Sean, and Beth who in a very short time have taken me in and made me feel at home. This is a dream come true for me. And, to Michael, your return makes us complete. Family is the most important thing, without it we have nothing. Welcome home, Michael!

- Susan Harding: I don't care what goddamn religion he is!
