- Mamie 'Miss Mamie' Baldwin, Emily 'Miss Emily' Baldwin: [in unison] We'd like to adopt Jason!
- The Grandfather: Methuselah!
- Esther Walton: Good Lord!
- Olivia Walton: Did you say you wanted to adopt him?
- Mamie 'Miss Mamie' Baldwin: Yes, dear! Adopt him legally, and then he would be our dependent.
- Emily 'Miss Emily' Baldwin: We thought we would give him the blue room, the one Ashley used to stay in when he came to visit.
- John Walton, Sr.: That's very nice, ladies, but we're not giving up any of our children this year.
- John-Boy Walton: Look, I came here to get a haircut, okay?
- Esther Walton: Looks all right to me.
- John-Boy Walton: Well, just a little off the sides, you know, a trim.
- Esther Walton: Now?
- John-Boy Walton: If it's all right with you, sure.
- Esther Walton: Oh, fine! We have nothin' to do, do we, Livvy?
- Olivia Walton: No.
- Esther Walton: We just have three kinds of sausage to make today, a hunk of lard to be rendered, some clothes on the line that need ironin', and in exactly two hours John and Grandpa are gonna come stompin' in here hungry for their dinner! Haircut!
- John-Boy Walton: OK, you can do it tomorrow if you want, Grandma.
- Esther Walton: On the Sabbath? You sit down!
