"Would you like to buy some band candy?" " Yes!" "Lisa's mad at me, and now she's using Marge's maiden name instead of mine." "Homer, whatever you done to that little girl, you just gotta do something even nicer to win her back." "She may never take back your name, but there's still a chance she'll take you back as her daddy." "Wow." "Nobody gives better parenting advice than childless drunks." "So the name Lisa Simpson is available, huh?" "A lot of goodwill attached to that name." "I'm gonna take it." "Lisa's Tavern." "Lisa speaking." "Lisa, sweetie, I'm honored that you chose my name, but it's not that great." "Back in high school, the boys used to call me Marge Boobier." "Hey, Bouvier was Jackie Kennedy's maiden name." "Really?" "I never knew that." "Well, what did you think her name was before it was Kennedy?" "Jackie O!" "Like SpaghettiOs!" "I thought that was where her money came from."

"Dad, I know this is crazy, but did you plant a message to me in the New York Times crossword puzzle?" "Well, I had a little help from this guy." "New York Times crossword editor, Will Shortz!" "And master puzzle constructor, Merl Reagle!" "I actually wrote that crossword." " And I edited it." "Now get back to crosswording!" " Yes, sir." "Well, I must admit, I'm kind of touched." "'Dumb dad sorry for his bet.' Nice." "You didn't get Homer's whole message, Lisa." "I didn't?" "Take a look at the first letters of all the clues." "Dear Lisa, you make me so happy." "Really, really, really happy." "Sorry." "He told me I needed 144 letters." "What was my point again?" "Oh, right." "Bouvier or Simpson, I cherish you." "Oh, Dad." "Cherish is the word I use to describe" "All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside" "You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you" "English" " US" " SDH"
