- Aggie: Uh, that nice-looking young man, is he your son?
- Doc: [looking around confusedly] What nice-looking young man?
- Aggie: The man yonder, who just went in there with Mr. Rudd.
- Doc: Chester?
- Aggie: Chester. That's a nice name.
- Doc: It is? Well, he's not my son. I'm too young to have a boy that old! And I'm a little too particular.
- Aggie: Uh, is he married? Chester, I mean.
- Doc: No, no, he's not married.
- Aggie: That's nice.
- Doc: Nice? Well, I would say it's more of a blessing to all the young women he's not married to.
- Aggie: Oh. I thought he was a friend of yours.
- Doc: Oh, yes, one of my very best friends. If he wasn't, why, I don't think I could stand him!
- Aggie: Pa, menfolk settle down someplace. They work, and they make a home for their own.
- Luke: I mean to do that, honey, just as soon as ever we get to Colorado.
- Aggie: I heard you talking about Colorado, with all those mountains. You won't bear not being able to go across them.
- Luke: Yeah. Never know what's waitin' for ya crossin' a river, roundin' a bend, on up over the mountains.
- Aggie: Pa, I gotta settle someplace! I gotta belong and have a home. I like it here. I bought me some curtains today. And I'm gonna stay!
