Mister Ed1958

Wilbur Post:
Gordon, why are we fighting? This whole thing as been a misunderstanding.

Gordon Kirkwood:
Well, you still haven't told me what happened at that examination as to why you were declared mentaly incopetent.

Wilbur Post:
All right... I'll level with you. I had some old wigs and prop hats left over from a masqurade party. What happened was Ed somehow put them on...

Gordon Kirkwood:
[interupting] I knew it! That horse again. Wilbur, if I told you this I've told you a hundred times, that horse of yours is a trouble maker! He has caused you and all of us enough trouble around here. I'm warning you... sell that old plug or forget me as a friend!

Wilbur Post:
Gordon, please! Don't ask me to sell Ed. Would I ask you to get rid of Winnie?

Gordon Kirkwood:
[behildered] Huh?

Carol Post:
What Wilbur is trying to say is that his horse is just as important as his wife. [to Wilbur] Is that what you're trying to say?

Wilbur Post:
Yes. I mean... no! I... uh...

[Carol angrily exits]

Gordon Kirkwood:
Come on, Winnie. Let's get out of here. Maybe I can find someone else to buy and fly that plane with me and not this loony bird who's so attached to his dumb horse!

Winnie Kirkwood:
[to Wilbur] A horse may be a man's best friend. But remember, a wife is a relative.
