Dupree: I really appreciate this, guys. Trust me, no more open flames. I've learned my lesson.
Molly: All right, well, it's been a long night. So, I'm gonna go to bed. Dupree, try not to go to sleep with that head wet. Okay?
Dupree: Good night, Molly.
Carl: Dupree. I don't mean to come down on you, but you need to start getting your life together. We're grown-ups now.
Dupree: Yeah.
Carl: You know what I mean?
Dupree: I know. I know. You're right.
Carl: And if you're going to stay here, things are gonna be different from now on. No more naked stuff.
Dupree: Well, it felt natural to be naked. I...
Carl: I don't care!
Dupree: Okay.
Carl: I do not care. Clean up after yourself, watch the noise, try to help out around the house, please? It's not too much to ask.
Dupree: You're right. Carl? I can be really helpful when I set my mind to it. And that's what I'm gonna do.
Carl: Oh, and... Another thing. Would you mind writing some thank-you notes for me?
Dupree: Okay.
Carl: Yeah. That'd be great.
