The Right Stuff Season 1 Episode 4 Quotes

Mr. Shepard: I thought that was pretty funny, too, until my dad told me that I would be sleeping in the barn until that cow came down. [laughs] I had to bribe half the kids in the village to come help me lower her down by rope!
Alan: You could've just pushed her out the window; you would have had steaks for a year.
Mr. Shepard: Now that is a Navy Man's solution if I ever heard it. Taking the easy way out. It's kind of like if a little girl's name is inconvenient, you just change it [snaps his fingers]. What do you think about that ... Martha? Do you like that name? Did you pick it?
Lou: Let's talk abut something else.
Mr. Shepard: No. I want to hear her opinion, cause I'm guessin' no one else has asked.
Lou: You're making her uncomfortable.
Mr. Shepard: Oh. [takes a bite and reaches over to Judith, grabbing her arm and smashing her elbow on the table]. Mind your elbows.
Alan: [clears his throat] This is my house, Dad. I'll handle the discipline.
Mr. Shepard: Huh. It doesn't seem to me like you're handling much of anything. There's no flag on the pole out front. Couldn't help but notice that.

Alan: Smells good in here! Where's Judith?
Lou: Martha. We've decided to call her Martha.
Alan: We're, uh, changing her name?
Lou: Judith is too close to Julie.
Julie: It'd be too confusing.
Alan: Huh.
