Dialogue
- Nora: We skip Christmas?!
- Vic: Nora Krank, we're here for Frosty!
- Spike: You're skipping Christmas?! Isn't that against the law?
- Spike: [watching Luther steal a Christmas tree] Are you sure this is illegal?
- Luther: Are you a cop?
- Walt Scheel: Well if it isn't old Scrooge himself
- Blair: I'm bringing home Enriqué!
- Luther: What's a reeké?
- Nora: You forgot the white chocolate!
- Luther: They didn't have any.
- Nora: Did you talk to Rex?
- Luther: Who's Rex?
- Nora: The butcher.
- Luther: ...As odd as it sounds, I didn't think to ask the butcher where the chocolate was!
- Nora: What are you doing? It's not even Saturday night.
- Nora: [Luther explains his idea for the cruise] How much is this going to cost?
- Luther: $3,000.00.
- Nora: We SAVE money?
- Luther: Absolutely.
- Nora: We can still give a donation to the Childrens Hospital and the Church?
- Luther: No this is a total boycott honey.
- Nora: It's $600.
- Luther: It is a total boycott.
- Nora: Well then no. [leaves] What a stupid idea.
- [Later they are in bed]
- Luther: You are going to let a lousy $600 stand between us and a Caribbean cruise?
- Nora: No. You are.
- Luther: Okay fine. Look. I'll match last year's contribution to the church and the hospital but not a penny more.
- Nora: When do we leave?
- Luther: High noon Christmas day.
- Luther: Smoked trout?
- Nora: It's better than frozen pizza.
- Luther: What happened to the hickory honey ham?
- Nora: [stops dead in her tracks and turns around with a livid look on her face] NEVER say hickory honey ham again.
- Luther: [Sarcastically] Ooooh.
- Nora: Why would we want to get tans before the cruise? I thought the idea was to get them DURING the cruise.
- Luther: Look at us, we kind of look like uncooked chicken.
- Daisy: You look like a corpse. [to Nora] And you could use some help too.
- Luther: [dressed in black to hide his tan] I look like a Mafia Lieutenant.
