Pat Dugan : Hey, honey. What's going?
Barbara Whitmore : Hi, honey, I'm making family dinner. And normally, I could handle this, but it's for eight.
Pat Dugan : Eight?
Barbara Whitmore : Yes.
[realizing]
Barbara Whitmore : The chicken!
Pat Dugan : What, you're... you're boiling chicken?
Barbara Whitmore : Yeah.
Pat Dugan : Barb, if I'd have known you'd invited people over, I could've done the cooking.
Barbara Whitmore : I know, honey, but you've been so busy taking care of the kids, and fixing your car, and I just didn't wanna bother you.

Barbara Whitmore : I'm sorry for interrupting. I-I wanted to apologize in person for leaving you in Oakville.
Jordan Mahkent : Your daughter was in an accident. You have nothing to apologize for. How is, uh... Courtney?
Barbara Whitmore : Yeah, better. Thanks.
Jordan Mahkent : Good. That's good.
Barbara Whitmore : Are you sure you're okay?
Jordan Mahkent : I just finished a project I've been working on for some years. It took me all around the globe. To London, Tokyo, all over the States. But it also cost me quite a bit of time away from my son. Given everything I sacrificed, I was hoping, once it was complete, I would feel... a sense of accomplishment. But I don't. Still... it's nothing the new project won't fix, or some time with my family. Christine, she would make a big dinner when I returned from a trip. It'd remind me what I was working for. Thanks again for stopping by.
Barbara Whitmore : Yeah.
[turning to leave, then turning back]
Barbara Whitmore : Jordan? What are you and your family doing tonight?

Jordan Mahkent : I hear you run the old garage off Main Street?
Pat Dugan : Yeah, I mostly focus on classic cars, but, uh, you know, in a small town like this, I take whatever work comes my way.
Jordan Mahkent : I guess you could do your work anywhere, right? So why move to Blue Valley, if you don't mind me asking?
Pat Dugan : No. Uh... well... the pace, the people. And, uh, Barbara of course grew up here, so...
Jordan Mahkent : Right. Growing up in the cornfields and going to the theater, and living the perfect American life.
Barbara Whitmore : Mmm... it was not perfect, trust me. Not back then.
Courtney Whitmore : Uh, Blue Valley's not perfect now, mom.
Jordan Mahkent : Oh, it's getting there.
Barbara Whitmore : Yeah, Blue Valley's going to be an example of a better America built on the most important building block of all: families.
Jordan Mahkent : Hmm. If only everyone felt the same way as us, huh?
Sofus Mahkent : [conversing in Norwegian] I like her.
Lily Mahkent : Her daughter bothers me.

Pat Dugan : What do you think you're doing?
Courtney Whitmore : What if we use the staff to help prove that Jordan Mahkent is Icicle? Maybe it can recognize his scent. Or... energy?
Pat Dugan : We're not doing anything else until we tell your mother everything.
Barbara Whitmore : What is that?
[the staff powers down and clatters to the floor]
Barbara Whitmore : [with a shrieking scream] What the hell is that?
Pat Dugan : It's, uh...
