Carl Otis Winslow:
[after bringing Eddie home from jail] Now Edward, stop looking around for Steve. He's having the same discussion with his father. Now let me get this straight, you dented the car. And instead of admitting to it, you got yourself involved in gambling. Does that about cover it?

Edward 'Eddie' James Arthur Winslow:
Yes sir.

Carl Otis Winslow:
[pulls up a chair] Sit down, Edward.

[Eddie sits down and Carl grabs his hair]

Carl Otis Winslow:
Edward Arthur Winslow, son I'm ashamed of you. Dont you know when you make a mistake, you fess up to it. Trying to cover it up would only make it worse.

Edward 'Eddie' James Arthur Winslow:
Yes sir.

Carl Otis Winslow:
But, apparently you seem want to learn it the hard way, well so be it. You're grounded for two weeks and you are to stay away from my car until it learns self-defense. Now hit the sack. [Eddie leaves and Carl puts the chair away] Well that took care of everything.

Harriette Winslow:
Now let me get this straight. You dumped one of my relatives in a Hefty bag. Then instead of admitting it, you let us spread a log in Lake Michigan. Does that about cover it?

Carl Otis Winslow:
Yes ma'am.

Harriette Winslow:
[pulls up a chair] Sit down, Carl.

[Carl sits down]

Harriette Winslow:
[grabbing Carl's hair] Carl...

[Takes her hand away, looking at it before placing it on top of his head instead]

Harriette Winslow:
Carl Otis Winslow, I'm ashamed of you. When you make a mistake, fess up to it. Trying to cover it up only make things worse.

Carl Otis Winslow:
Yes ma'am.

Harriette Winslow:
But, apparently, you seem to want to learn these things the hard way, so be it. You're taking me out for dinner at Chez Josephine's.

Carl Otis Winslow:
Yes, ma'am.

Harriette Winslow:
Now let's hit the sack.

Carl Otis Winslow:
[More excitedly] Yes, ma'am!
