Melvin Udall: [to Carol Connelly] I'm hungry.
[He sees Carol's astonished look.]
Melvin Udall: You've ruined my whole day. I haven't eaten.
Carol Connelly: What are you doing here?
[Melvin ignores this question, instead answering a charge that he had imagined that Carol might have taken.]
Melvin Udall: This is not a sexist thing. If you were a waiter, I'd be saying the -
Carol Connelly: Are you totally gone? This is my private home.
Melvin Udall: I'm trying to keep emotion out of this. Even though it's an important issue to me, and I have very strong feelings on the subject.
Carol Connelly: What subject? That I wasn't there to take crap from you and bring you eggs? Do you have any control over how creepy you allow yourself to get?
Melvin Udall: Yes, I do, as a matter of fact. And to prove it, I have not gotten personal, and you have. Why aren't you at work? You sick? You don't look sick. Just tired and bitter.
Carol Connelly: My son is sick, okay?
[She crosses to the sink to dump the ice. Melvin takes a step inside.]
Melvin Udall: What about your mother?
Carol Connelly: How do you know about my mother?

Spencer "Spence" Connelly: [offscreen] Mom, I finished my juice.
Carol Connelly: I'm sorry, honey. One sec.

Melvin Udall: [to Spencer "Spence" Connelly] How ya doing?
[Spence just stares at Melvin, who becomes miffed.]
Melvin Udall: You should answer someone when they speak to you.
[Carol eyes Melvin with disgust and disbelief.]
Carol Connelly: I'm sorry, Melvin! That's it! I cannot handle you teaching my son manners!
[She pushes Melvin out the door and closes it in Melvin's face.]
Melvin Udall: Ow!
