Quotes 

• [Police officer Davis sidelines as a home alarm salesman] 

  Davis Quinton : [to Oscar and Emma]  Good day, sir. Hello, ma'am. How safe do you feel in your own neighbourhood?

  Emma Leroy : I'd feel safer if we had a police department.

• [when word spreads about Wanda's thrift store shopping, Emma thinks she has fallen on hard times] 

  Emma Leroy : [handing Wanda a box]  Here we go. Some skirts, pants, a couple of sweaters, a crimping iron...

  Wanda Dollard : Sweaters and a crimping iron? Is Twisted Sister doing a show at the curling rink?

• [Oscar and Emma are testing out their new home alarm system] 

  Emma Leroy : 1-6-8, and arm!

  [they run out the door] 

  Oscar Leroy : Did you turn off the coffee maker?

  Emma Leroy : Just leave it.

  Oscar Leroy : It could explode!

  Emma Leroy : It won't explode, it's decaffeinated!

• [after Emma and Oscar's new home alarm turns out to be a nuisance for both them and the police, Karen and Davis bring them something new] 

  Oscar Leroy : What do you call this thing-a-ma-hooey again?

  Davis Quinton : It's called a "home smart alarm". Karen can show you how it works.

  [a closeup of the new "alarm" reveals that it is just an old calculator taped to the wall] 

  Karen Pelly : Sure. You just take the number of people in the house, multiply that by how scared you are, add the number of doors, then press "AC", which stands for access code, and there you have it: "0" chance of break-in.

  Emma Leroy : And it's a silent alarm?

  Davis Quinton : Oh yeah, it gives off a high-pitched sound that only burglars can hear.

  Oscar Leroy : That is smart. And it's a Casio! They make good stuff.
