Homer:
Wilma? What does she want?

Butch:
You.

Homer:
Oh, why can't they leave a guy alone?

Butch:
Because they're fond of ya, that's why. What made you leave the house and get them all worried?

Homer:
Oh, they, they got me nervous...well, they keep staring at these hooks, or else they keep staring away from them.

Butch:
Do you mean, whatever they do is wrong?

Homer:
Why don't they understand that all I want is to be treated like everybody else?

Butch:
Give 'em time, kid. They'll catch on. You know, your folks will get used to you, and you'll get used to them. Then everything will settle down nicely, unless we have another war. Then none of us have to worry because we'll all be blown to bits the first day. So cheer up, huh?
