2.3 Everybody Needs a Bubby

written by: Diane Wilk

Favorite Lines Our Comments


Grandma Yetta's retirement home is being treated for termites, so Sylvia asks if Yetta can stay with the Sheffields.
Fran: Here? Ma, why can't she stay at your place?
Yetta: No. I don't want to be a burden on family. These people I don't know!

Talking Max into it.
Fran: I think it's good for children to spend time with their grandmother.
Max: She's not their grandmother!
Fran: Oh all right. You tell her. She stays alone like a dog all day in that home.

Frannie, can I sit outside in my brassiere? Will anyone see?

Maggie is angry with her dad and finds a sympathetic ear in Yetta.
Fran: See how sensative Yetta is? She'll be a great influence on Maggie.
Yetta (to Maggie): Ya want a cigarette?

Maggie: Daddy, I'm sorry I said I hated you. Bubby Yetta says you only have one father and she's right.
Yetta redeems herself a little in Maxwell's eyes, but not for long.

They smell something burning and Maxwell breaks down Yetta's door.

Fran: Oh my God! Yetta!!
Yetta: What a coincidence. Saul said the same thing not ten minutes ago.

Fran: Are you out of your mind? This is the Sheffield house--no one ever has sex in this house!!

The mayhem continues:
Yetta: Frannie, it might help your marriage if you got rid of that blonde your husband's always hanging around with. I don't know if you noticed, but your kids are blonde.

Thinking that Maggie will follow Yetta's lead, when Maggie comes home from a date:
Fran: Where the hell have you been? Do you know what time it is? Your father was so worried I had to send him to bed!

But Maggie didn't do anything and Fran offered up some advise of her own.
Fran: Let me tell you something that's a little more hip and a little more happening. Don't do a thing if you ain't got that ring! Do wop, do wop, do wop.

Devil With The Blue Dress On
(Shorty Long - Blackwell/Mariscalso)

Fee, fee, fi, fi, fo-fo, fum
Look at Molly now, here she comes
Wearin' her wig hat and shades to match
She's got high-heel shoes and an alligator hat
Wearin' her pearls and her diamond rings
She's got bracelets on her fingers, now, and everything
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Wearin' her perfume, Chanel No. 5
Got to be the finest girl alive
She walks real cool, catches everybody's eye
She's got such good lovin' that they can't say goodbye
Not too skinny, she's not too fat
She's a real humdinger and I like it like that
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
