Lisa (checking Rico's pamper to see if it's wet or not): "False alarm, he's clean."

(Maria and Rosa arrive home with groceries.

Maria: "Hey, you guys,"

Rosa: "how's it going?"

Bobby: "Terrible and horrible, Mom and Dad, Rico's been constantly crying for about an hour and we can't figure out why."

Ronnie Anne: "Yeah, even I tried everything to get him to stop, he's not wet, hungry, tired, thirsty or teething, he's got his dinosaur blankie and his sock monkey."

Maria picks up Rico.

Maria: "Well, sometimes babies cry all the time and you don't know the reason, (she looks right at Rico.) it's gonna be alright, Rico."

Rosa: "You and Ronnie Anne did plenty of crying when you were babies, Roberto, trust me."

Maria: "Anyhow, try to have a bit of patience with Rico, he'll quit crying when he's prepared."

Lori: "I guess you're absolutely right, we'll just need to live with it."

Lola: "Yeah right, his caterwauling's unbearable."

Lana: "Speak for yourself."

Lincoln: "We need a plan right away."

Ronnie Anne: "I think I came up with 1."

Ronnie Anne walks a few steps upstairs.

Lynn: "Walking away isn't a plan, Ronnie Anne, everybody knows that, even Lily knows that."

Ronnie Anne: "No, you guys, Dimples the So Much Better Dragon, my most favorite play toy when I was Rico's age, he always cheered me up a lot."
