Rev. Eric Camden:
[about Mary to the Colonel] Look, Annie and I aren't happy that she's not going to college, but she's working. She's earning a living, paying her bills.

John 'The Colonel' Camden:
Who let her buy the car?

Rev. Eric Camden:
No one let her. She just went out and bought it. And as much as I think she shouldn't have, that car is a responsibility that she can't run away from. She has to work hard and and keep her job because she has to pay for that car.

John 'The Colonel' Camden:
Son, to win a war you've got to fight. You got to get in there and get your hands dirty and make something happen, and you have to have a battle plan. What's your battle plan?

Rev. Eric Camden:
This isn't a war.

John 'The Colonel' Camden:
Oh, it's a war all right, and a stake is Mary's future.

Rev. Eric Camden:
As much as we would like to force Mary into doing what we know is best for her, we can't. She's an adult. She has to do this on her own.

John 'The Colonel' Camden:
And what if she doesn't?

Rev. Eric Camden:
She will.
