Maxine : [after Bird discovers Lem dancing with his ex at her wedding reception] Now, that's what she gets. Bringing in somebody who ain't got nothing and putting him off on family.
Teri : What do you mean, putting him off on family? How about putting him off on me? I'm the one who paid for this wedding!
Maxine : [rolling her eyes] Teri, why do you ALWAYS have to let everybody know how much you pay for everything?
Teri : Because I DO.

Kenny : [after Lem arrives home from jail] So Lem, how you get out, man?
Lem : Honestly, man, I don't know. Somebody talked to somebody, and the charges got dropped.
Maxine : Well, Lem, we're all happy to have you back, brother.
Bird : [happily] That's right! My boo is home!
Teri : Actually, I called in to the D.A's office for a favor.
Lem : [glares at Teri]
Teri : I felt bad.
Lem : You should feel bad! Because of you, I had to spend weeks in jail.
Teri : You should be thankful! Now, you can stay home and take care of your pregnant wife.
Bird : You know what, Teri? You need to mind your own damn business, all right? Didn't nobody ask you for your help! You need to worry about your own husband and why he's sleeping with her!
