- Nina Banks: [Nina comes to bail out George from the city lock-up] Hello, George.
- George: Why do you look happy to see me in here, Nina?
- Nina Banks: Happy? No, no, no. I'm not happy George. You think I was happy to tell everyone that I had to come down to the city jail and bail you out for stealing hot dog buns?
- George: I wasn't stealing...
- Nina Banks: Ah!
- George: I was just...
- Nina Banks: Ah! I'm going to have to ask you not to talk, or I'll have to call Officer What's-his-name over there. You've been more than I can handle, George. Annie's wedding is not a conspiracy against you. It's just a wedding. People have them every day in every country in the world. I know it'g going to be expensive, but: we don't go to Europe. We don't own fancy cars. I don't own expensive jewelry, so we can afford to have a big wedding.
- George: Nina...
- Nina Banks: I'll get you out of here on one condition, Banks: that you agree to the following. Now, repeat after me. "I, George Stanley Banks..."
- George: [Swallowing his pride] I, George Stanley Banks...
- Nina Banks: Promise to pull it together and act my age.
- George: I will stop hyperventilating, rolling my eyes, unbuttoning my top collar button...
- Nina Banks: I don't unbutton my top collar...
- George: Oh, no, you mean this bit here?
- [Motions to her collar]
- Nina Banks: [Feeling his, realizing she is right] I will stop hyperventilating, rolling my eyes, and unbuttoning my top collar button.
- George: I will stop making faces in general, and I will certainly stop telling everyone I meet how much this wedding is costing.
- Nina Banks: I don't tell everyone how much it costs!
- [Officer clears throat]
- Nina Banks: He told you, right?
- Nina Banks: $250 a head?
- Nina Banks: Oh, well thanks.
- George: I will try to remember my daughter's feelings, and how, with every roll of my eyes, I am taking away a piece of her happiness.
- Nina Banks: I love you, Nina.
- Nina Banks: Just repeat the last bit.
- George: I will try to remember my daughter's feelings, and how, with every roll of my eyes, I am taking away a piece of her happiness.
- Nina Banks: I love you too. Let's go home, okay?
- Nina Banks: [Waiting for Bryan to arrive] So, can you see him? What does he look like?
- George: He just drove up.
- Nina Banks: And?
- George: He drove too fast.
- Annie: Listen, I'm going to take Bryan for a drive and show him around.
- Nina Banks: Okay, honey. Good.
- George: Annie, it's a little nippy out. You might want to put on a sweater.
- Annie: No, Dad, it's okay. I'm kind of warm.
- George: There's a chill in the air, and you've been on a plane.
- Annie: Dad, I'm fine.
- Bryan: Annie, it is kind of cold out.
- Annie: It is?
- George: Yeah.
- Annie: Alright. Thanks. I'll get my jacket.
- George: [in voiceover] Right then, I realized my day had passed. She'll always love me, of course, but not in the same way. I was no longer the man in my little girl's life. I was like an old shoe, the kind we manufacture and get all excited about and then, after a few years, discontinue. That was me now: Mr. Discontinued.
- Andrea - the Florist: In terms of the florals out front, we're going to color-coordinate with the swans, right?
- George: Swans?
- Nina Banks: Oh, I think it'd be wonderful.
- Andrea - the Florist: Perfect.
- George: We're having swans?
- Annie: Oh, sure, Franck thought it'd be great to have swans waddling around the tulip border, you know, as the guests enter.
- George: Nina, we don't have a tulip border.
- Andrea - the Florist: You will.
- [hands George the bill]
- Nina Banks: [hugging George] A wedding! Father of the Bride. Can you believe it?
- [George rolls his eyes]
- Nina Banks: Good news. The church is free!
- George: Oh, finally something is free.
- Nina Banks: I meant - available.
- George: This is ridiculous! You're - too young to get married!
- Annie: Too young? Dad, I'm 22! If I'm not mistaken, that's a year older than Mom was when you guys got married.
- George: That is absolutely not true.
- Nina Banks: Oh, no, you're absolutely wrong.
- George: You were this age when I married you?
- Nina Banks: No. I was younger. I was this age when she was born.
- Nina Banks: I thought it was totally sincere.
- George: Oh, please. What about that little rehearsed speech he gave that was right out of a book, "How to Grease Your Future Mother-In-Law."
- Nina Banks: How did you two - uh - meet?
- Annie: Oh, we were the only two people at this revival house in Rome for a midnight show of "Bringing Up Baby." We kept hearing each other laugh.
- Bryan: And at all the same places.
- George: What about the way he kept touching her?
- Nina Banks: What do you mean?
- George: What do you mean, what do I mean? He couldn't keep his hands off of her.
- Nina Banks: Oh, yes, kind of like when we were engaged, except that wasn't all you couldn't keep off me.
- George: That was different. And we certainly never acted that way in your parent's house.
- Nina Banks: Oh! You want me to name all the rooms we did it in at my parent's house?
- George: That was different!
- George: I hate that expression, "in-laws." What does it mean, anyway? We're legally bound to these people? I don't want to be "in-lawed." Especially to people who live in Bel-Air. I mean, what kind of people have brunch and live in Bel-Air?
- Nina Banks: Rich people.
- George: You and I could end up shuffling along the sidewalk in our bathrobes. That was a joke.
- Nina Banks: [sarcastically] Hilarious!
