Michael O'Sullivan:
He survived all those storms to be washed away by a few plastic lottery balls.

Jackie O'Shea:
And don't take it personally, Finn, but I bought you some expensive, fruity soaps. Take them home, try them out.

Jackie O'Shea:
Michael O'Sullivan was my great friend. But I don't ever remember telling him that. The words that are spoken at a funeral are spoken too late for the man who is dead. What a wonderful thing it would be to visit your own funeral. To sit at the front and hear what was said, maybe say a few things yourself. Michael and I grew old together. But at times, when we laughed, we grew young. If he was here now, if he could hear what I say, I'd congratulate him on being a great man, and thank him for being a friend.

Annie O'Shea:
Have we won?

Jackie O'Shea:
No, but it got my apple tart brought in now didn't it.

Annie O'Shea:
But he's never told a lie in his life.

Jackie O'Shea:
Well, he's making up for it now.

Pig Finn:
I've been using some fruity soaps, Maggie.

Maggie O'Toole:
I've noticed. Well, come on then... Let's get closer.

Pig Finn:
Oh, yes please, Maggie.
