Serena Joy: You need to keep your hands off of her. I will not have her hanging from a ceiling or stepping in front of a truck, do you understand me, Fred?
Fred: Control myself? You brought lust and temptation back into this house on your back and on your knees. If I've sinned, then you led me to it.
Serena Joy: You can blame me all you want, but He knows the truth. Everybody answers to God.
Fred: And you answer to me. Go to your room.
Serena Joy: She's pregnant.
Fred: Praise be.
Serena Joy: Praise be. It isn't yours. You're weak, and God wouldn't let you pass on that weakness. You could never father a child because you're not worthy.
Serena Joy: I forget. How many tiles do you pick to start?
Fred: Seven.
Serena Joy: Do you want to play?

Serena Joy: Yes, I do. I helped write it.
Serena Joy: Praise be his mercy. He's answered our prayers.
June: You think I prayed for this? You think I prayed to bring a baby into this house?
Serena Joy: God knows what's in your heart. Get some rest.
