Beth: It's just going to be awful, you know. We were already down there and saw them. Mary and Joseph... they look like refugees or something.
Bob: Well, that's what they were. They were refugees. They were a long way from home, didn't have any place to stay, didn't know anybody. They were probably cold, hungry, tired and messy.
Charlie: I don't know about cold and hungry, but they're sure messy.

Rev. Hopkins: I don't know... Jesus said "Suffer little children to come unto me", but I'm not sure he meant the Herdmans.

Imogene Herdman: She didn't even get to name her own baby. I woulda named him Bill.
Ralph Herdman: What'd the angel do? Just walk up and say, "Name him Jesus"?
Grace: YES! YES!
Alice: *I* know what the angel said. She said, "His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace."
Imogene: He'd never get out of first grade if he had to write all that down.

Hobey: I haven't got a costume. I've never been a shepherd before.
Charlie: You have to wear your father's bathrobe. That's what I have to do.
Hobey: He hasn't got a bathrobe.
Charlie: What does he hang around the house in?
Hobey: His underwear.

Claude Herdman: What's the name of this play? She never said.
Ralph Herdman: Christmas Pageant.
Claude: That's no name. That's what it is.

Grace: ... and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in the manger, because there was no room for them at the inn.
Imogene Herdman: They didn't have room for JESUS?
Grace: Well, they didn't know he was going to be Jesus.
Imogene: Didn't Mary know? Didn't he [pointing to Ralph as Joseph] know? What was the matter with Joseph that he didn't tell them? Her pregnant and everything.
Leroy Herdman: What's a manger? Like a bed?
Grace: Well, no, they didn't have any bed in the barn, so Mary did the best thing she could. What would you do if you had a newborn baby and no bed to put him in?
Imogene: We put Gladys in the bureau drawer.
Grace: Well, there you see. You didn't have a bed for Gladys and so you--
Ralph Herdman: Oh, we had a bed. Only Ollie was still in it and he wouldn't get out. He didn't like Gladys. Remember how you didn't like Gladys?
Ollie Herdman: *phbbbbbbt* *slaps Ralph*
Grace: A manger is a large wooden feeding trough for animals.
Claude Herdman: What was wadded-up clothes?
Grace: What?
Claude: You read about it. "They wrapped him up in wadded-up clothes".
Grace: Oh, swaddling clothes. Uh, people used to wrap their babies up tightly with big pieces of material.
Imogene: You mean they tied him up and put him in a feed box? Where was the Child Welfare?
Gladys Herdman: The Child Welfare is at our house every five minutes!
Alice: There wasn't any Child Welfare in Bethlehem.
Imogene: I'll say there wasn't. What's next?
Grace: Um... there were shepherds keeping watch by night and lo, the angel of the lord came upon them.
Gladys: SHAZAM!
Grace: What?
Gladys: Out of the black night with horrible vengeance! The Mighty Marvel!
Grace: Gladys, I don't know what you're talking about.
Gladys: The Mighty Marvel, in Wonder Comics!
Grace: No, this is the angel of the lord who comes to the shepherds.
Gladys: Out of nowhere, right? In the black night, right?
Grace: Well, yes, in a way...
Gladys: SHAZAM!
Grace: Who are my wise men? Raise your hands. Listen to this now: There came wise men from the east, bearing gifts of gold, and frankincense and myrrh.
Claude: What's frankincense?
Ollie: I dunno.
Grace: They were special gifts. Precious oils.
Imogene: OIL? What kind of present is oil? We get better presents in the welfare basket.
Gladys: I get it, the wise men were the Welfare.
Grace: No, um, no, they were sent by King Herod.
Imogene: Wait a minute, who's he?
Grace: Uh, King Herod.
Ollie: What about him? What'd he do?
Grace: Well, he sent them to find Jesus so that he could put him to death.
Imogene: He just got born! They're gonna kill a baby!
Claude: Who's Herod in this play?
Grace: Uh, Herod isn't in the play.
Leroy: You mean, he's out to kill the baby and he isn't even in the play?
Grace: Well, no, he's uh--
Imogene: Well somebody better be Herod.
Grace: No, Imogene, we are going to do the pageant the way it is always done.
Imogene: Let Charlie be Herod. And he says, "Go get me that baby" and they say, "Okay" because he's a king and all.
Ollie: But then they don't do it. They go back and get Herod. Take that, Herod, take that, Herod.
Charlie: I'm not going to be Herod.
Grace: No one is going to be Herod.
Claude: No, Joseph gets the shepherds and they go wipe out Herod.
Charlie: See, they're going to put Herod in and it's going to be me and I'll get killed!

Grace: ...into the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, to be taxed with Mary, his wife, being great with child--
Ollie(?) Herdman: What's that?
Ralph Herdman: It means PREGNANT! She was PREGNANT!
Alice: I don't think it's very nice to say Mary was *pregnant*.
Beth: Well, she was...
Alice: It's better to say she was "great with child". I'm not supposed to talk about people being *pregnant*, especially in *church*.

Grace: Now that we've taken care of the shepherds and the angel choir, let's settle down a minute and think about Mary. She was quiet, and gentle and kind. So the sort of girl we want to play Mary needs to be that kind of person.
Imogene Herdman: I'll be Mary. And Ralph over there? He'll be the Joseph.

Grace: I have to direct the Christmas pageant.
Bob: Hmm, you have my sympathy.
Grace: Is that all?
Bob: No, you can also have my bathrobe for a shepherd.
Grace: And?
Bob: Nope, that's it, Grace. Sympathy and a bathrobe.

Alice: Call the police. Then they can put Ralph in jail.
Beth: Alice, nobody's going to put the Herdmans in jail.
Maxine: Because they're kids.
Beth: No, because they'd burn down the jail.
