Roseanne (TV Series) Don’t Make Me Over

Jackie Harris : [on Roseanne’s new robe from Dan] Oh, my, my, my. Let me feel. Oh boy, that feels fire retardant.

Roseanne Conner : It’s *way* retardant.

Roseanne Conner : [looking in the closet] Hey! I think I found my Mother’s Day present from the kids.

Jackie Harris : You’re not going to open it, are you? It’s two days away.

Roseanne Conner : Yea! Well I need time to practice pretending like I like it.

[pulls ugly, fuzzy, pink houseshoes from the box]

Roseanne Conner : Oh man, I should’a opened it a week ago.

D.J. Conner : Here. Happy Mother’s Day!

Roseanne Conner : Oh, lookit, it’s an ashtray with your picture at the bottom.

Darlene : Aww, it’s a shame you quit smoking, you could grind your butts out on his face.

Roseanne Conner : [to Becky and Darlene, after they give their Mom a very nice gift] Man, this must’a cost a lot! Which one of you’s is pregnant?

Roseanne Conner : I got a call from D.J.’s school today because he hasn’t turned in any math assignments for 2 whole weeks.

Dan : Why not?

Roseanne Conner : Well he’s had a lot of extra responsibility around here since you died.

Dan : [pause] Did I suffer?

Roseanne Conner : No, a sniper shot you.

D.J. Conner : I said I was sorry!

Roseanne Conner : Ever since he got that video game all he’s been doing is goofing off.

Dan : We’re going out to eat.

Roseanne Conner : No, I don’t want to go out with those girls, I just want to eat and go to bed.

Dan : They’re not coming, they’re going to stay here. I’m punishing them, and eating my chili’s just the beginning of the punishment.

Roseanne Conner : …But they hate ME, right?

Dan : Nope, that’s the beauty of it, they hate ME. It’s my Mother’s Day present for you. Now go get dressed.

Roseanne Conner : Oh this is great! This is way better than some dumb robe.

Roseanne Conner : [Darlene and Becky have made Roseanne breakfast] What’s the catch?

Becky : No catch, can’t we do something nice?

Roseanne Conner : I don’t know, you never have.

Roseanne Conner : [after receiving her gift card for a spa treatment] Lookie Dan, the girls bought me a good gift.

Dan : [to DJ] I want to talk to your Mum a second, go bug your sisters.

Roseanne Conner : [upset] Use real bugs.

Roseanne Conner : It was all a set up; they were just trying to get something out of me

[hugs Dan]

Roseanne Conner : why’d they have to do that today?

Dan : [sees Roseanne’s spa hairdo] My God! I’m having a flashback, prom night 1969, and all these years later your hair is still just as wide!

Roseanne Conner : Don’t touch it, Dan, you’ll dent it.
