Standard Deviation [1.04]

- Debra: Oh, guess who wrote that...
- [Ray puts away tax papers and sits next to Debra]
- Debra: You promised you'd get this done!
- Ray: That's not the point. The point is that... I will rub your feet!
- Debra: You gotta, you gotta get this done.
- [Ray pulls off Debra's socks and starts rubbing her bare feet]

- Ray: No, I read the sign Bernie, "Thank You for not smelling the help."

- Marie: Oh, I'm not worried about Raymond either, dear. I'm worried about that pizza parlor putana!
- Ray: [to Angelina] I'm sorry that was rude of me. This is Debra, the little lady. I don't mean little in a size way, or that she doesn't matter. She's my lady. She's my great big lady.
Frank, the Writer [1.06]
- Robert: Michael threw his milk at me!

- Ray: Hey, Robert! What are you doing here?
- Robert: I had a suspicion I needed to confirm.
- Debra: Robert, what's wrong?
- Robert: I don't think Michael loves me anymore.
- Debra: What are you talking about?
- Robert: He's not like Geoffrey, he seems standoffish.

Your Place or Mine? [1.07]
- [Ray and Debra are going over their bills.]

- Debra: Why? Why do you fight technology?
- Ray: I'm against technology?
- Debra: Yeah.
- Ray: Who introduced you to Wonderbra?
- Ray: All three kids asleep. You thought I couldn't get Ally to take a nap.
- Debra: Good job, honey.
- Ray: Yeah. By the way, tomorrow we have to buy a pony.
- Debra: Would you look at this great big stain here? The carpet guy swore up and down that he could get it out.
- Ray: I don't want to hear about stains. The kids are asleep, the house is quiet. Now it's quality time. Just me and you.
- [Ray starts reading the newspaper.]
- Debra: You better be looking at jewelry ads.
- [Marie barges into the house.]

- Ray: What's that, learned to buckle his pants?
- Frank: I've got the complete works of Arnold Schwarzenegger, except the one where he gets pregnant.
- Debra: Ray! She's in there chiseling my head stone!
- Debra: [To Ray, about Marie] Anything she cooks for me you're tasting first.
- Ray: You hear that?
- Debra: No, I don't hear anything.
- Ray: That’s the sound of all our clothes being refolded.
- Frank: It's the celery that makes "tuna salad" tuna salad. What you gave me was tuna slop!

In-Laws [1.08]

Win, Lose or Draw [1.09]
- Debra: You lost $2300 to your father?!?!
- Ray: Relax, alright? We're gonna get the money back.
- Debra: How?
- Ray: When he dies.
- [Robert interrogates Ray and Frank for illegally gambling]
- Ray: What the hell are you doing?
- Robert: "Good Cop/Bad Cop". It's just taking a little longer because there's only one of me.
- Marie: You're giving him back that money!
- Frank: Like hell, I am! I want to teach him a lesson. You up the stakes, you lose a lot. Play with fire, you're going to get burned.
- [Waves check in front of Raymond]
- Frank: AND ALWAYS, THANK YOU, COME AGAIN!
- Frank: You're not talking to me?
- Marie: Nope.
- Frank: [smiling] I just keep winning.
- Marie: This is for you.
- Debra: Ahh. But I thought Frank said...
- Marie: No, he doesn't know anything about that. This is my money.
- Debra: You have money?
- Marie: Oh... My father, oh, such a wise man. On my wedding day, he took me aside, gave me $200, and said, "Here". This is if you come to your senses and leave Frank.
- Debra: Wow. My dad only gave me fifty.
- Ray: For the last time I'm not taking the money. I lost it, that's all. I'm a big boy alright? If I take the money what kind of message does that send to my kids? That no matter what happened you can go to your father and he'll make everything ok?
- Frank: You're right. You're right.
- Ray: What, what am I right about?
- Frank: You should be able to go to your father, and he should be able to make it ok. [Gives Ray his money back]
- Frank: So Ray, you feel like a winner?
- Ray: Not really.
Turkey or Fish [1.10]
- Ally: My teacher says they had fish at the first Thanksgiving.
- Ray: Yeah, well, people were stupid then, sweetie!
- Debra: Look, Ray, we want to start our own tradition, and Ally wants it to be like the first Thanksgiving.
- Ray: Well, why don't we have some smallpox then, too?
- Ray: You want me to convince my parents to come here, and my sales pitch is, "mmm, mmm, fish!"
- Ray: I got the last of the baking powder. I had to fight two old ladies to get it.
- Debra: What did you do?
- Ray: Nothing I'm proud of.
- Ray: Debra, calm down. You're reacting to missing squash like the time we left Ally at the mall!
- Debra: I can't compete with your mother's turkey Ray, the woman has giblets in her blood!
- Ray: My mom is such a great cook. Thanksgiving, that's kinda what makes my mom...worth it.
- Frank: [Looking at the TV] What the hell is this crap?
- Warren: That's soccer. Frank, only in America is football the game that you're familiar with. In many countries, when people refer to football, they actually mean soccer!
- Frank: In many countries people eat cats.
- Uncle Mel: My god! That fish smell is like a....a punch in the face.
- Marie: Where do you want me to put this turkey?

- Ray: I know...did it have to be sex?
The Ball [1.12]
- Marie: Why do you insist on making this car wreck our Christmas tree every year? I want a real tree.
- Frank: An artificial tree saves water, saves the forest, and saves the planet. I'm a conservationist.
- Marie: You're cheap.
- Frank: Alright, I'm saving money.
- Debra: Mommy is just wrestling daddy.
- Ray: Wait, Mickey Mantle didn't sign this ball? It isn't real?
- Frank: It's a real ball.
- Marie: What's the matter?
- Ray: Nothing, nothing's the matter.
- Debra: Oh nothing at all, except Ray was just about to tell Ally the truth about Santa Claus.
- Marie: You what?!?!
- Ray: NO, I didn't tell her.
- Marie: My own son, an atheist?!?!
- [Robert enters dressed as Santa Claus]
- Robert: Merry Christmas! Is Ally here? I understand there are doubts about me in this house! [to Ray] Ho, Ho, Ma told me what you did... nice.
- Ray: There are now. Come on, Robert--
- Robert: No, you have me mistaken for some other party for I am jolly old Saint Nick.
- [Ally walks in]
- Debra: Look, Ally, it's Santa Claus.
- Ally: Santa?
- Robert: Yes, it is really I, and I came to see you Ally because I heard you were a very good girl this year and you're going to get everything you want. [to Ray] Unlike some other people. [in disgust] Ho ho ho ho ho.
- Ray: Hold the ho's, I want to talk to you for a minute.
- Robert: I'm sorry, I'm with a client. And you may call me Mr. Claus.
- [Frank enters, dressed as Santa]
- Frank: Where's Ally?
- [Frank notices Robert]
- Frank: Ho-ho-holy crap. What are you doing here?
- Robert: I'm Santa Claus.
- Frank: You're Santa?
- Ray: Okay, will you guys cut it out already. She's confused enough as it is.
- Frank: What's there to be confused about? I'm the real Santa! Who is this impostor?
- Debra: Well, you couldn't both be Santa. You must be Santa's helpers.
- Frank: Right! He's my helper. Helper, why don't you warm up the reindeer and bring the sled around?
- Robert: I bet you can't even name the reindeer.
- Frank: Rudolph! Donner, Blitzen... those are the main ones. We rotate them so they wear evenly. Cupid! Ajax! And... Lefty!
- Robert: Now we know the truth.
- [Ally pulls off Robert's Santa beard]
- Ally: It's Uncle Robert!
- Robert: [in Santa voice] No, no. I have merely assumed the body of a life form suitable to you.
- Ray: Robert, you're Santa, not a Klingon.
- Frank: You mean that even though you know that ball's a fake it still means something to you?
- Ray: Yeah, yeah dad.
- Frank: Then this Christmas you're gonna love the Rolex I got you.

- Frank: (amused) Who's the fat-ass? (Marie knows)
- Marie: (mortified) Frank!
- Frank: (equally mortified) Holy crap...
- Priest: ...There was a man on our church council a few years ago. A decent enough fellow but a little abrasive. Oblivious to anyone else's feelings. I used to fantasize about him converting to Judaism. I wanted to get him out of my hair. One day I said Frank...
- Ray: Wait, the man's name was Frank?
- Priest: That's not important. What's important is...
- Ray: Frank Barone?
- Priest: You know Frank Barone?!
- Ray: He's my father!
- Priest: Your parents are Frank and Marie Barone?!

Why Are We Here? [1.22]
