Charles Ingalls:
Now come on, clean out the coop.

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Do you have to do those kind of things when you come home from a days' work?

Charles Ingalls:
Of course I don't!

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Why?

Charles Ingalls:
Because it's different, that's why!

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
In what way?

Charles Ingalls:
Albert, try to understand. I'm supporting a family! I'm doing a man's work!

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Is chopping firewood a man's work?

Charles Ingalls:
Yeah.

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Is clearing a pasture man's work?

Charles Ingalls:
Yeah.

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Is plowing a field man's work?

Charles Ingalls:
Of course it is.

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Well, that's what I've been doing. So if I can do the work of a man, I should have the right to be treated like one.

Charles Ingalls:
Albert, I... I am the man around here and you do what I say. You want to work, work for me and I'll pay you.

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
No. That would wreck everything!

Charles Ingalls:
Why?

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Because it's an allowance. And allowances are for kids.

Charles Ingalls:
Well, what are you?

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
I'm a man, and you just said so.

Charles Ingalls:
I did not.

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
You said a man chops wood, clears and plows...

Charles Ingalls:
Clean the coop, Albert! Just clean the coop!

Albert Quinn Ingalls:
Grownups! Whenver they're wrong, they yell at you!

Charles Ingalls:
Just clean the coop!
