Episode Quotes

Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: Rose we have to talk to you about Christmas. It is too hot to go out shopping again so why don't we just draw names out of a hat and then we only have to buy one gift each?
Rose: But Dorothy I love Christmas and I love giving presents at Christmas. Besides, if we draw names out of a hat, whose names are they going to be?
Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: The Oakridge Boys, Rose! Each others'!

Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: Why are the Christmas cookies shaped like Liberty Bells and American flags?
Rose: I couldn't find the Christmas cookie cutters so I used the 4th of July ones.

Rose: You know, I've been thinking...
Blanche: Well, that would explain the beads of sweat!

Mistakes/Goofs

Goof (continuity error): Dorothy sets the present that Stan "gave" her on the coffee table. In the next shot, the present is gone. When the girls go into the kitchen, the present is back on the table.
