Maggie and Cole are discussing when the family lived in New York, (a scene from season 1, 1981 - '82):

Maggie: "Do you remember in New York once; you were about 4 or 5 years old, we went to this very, very fancy restaurant and we ordered lobster?"

Cole: "Right and they let you select the lobster right out of the tank, right?"

Maggie: "Right! And you named your lobster Larry. So anyway the waiter brings this poor lobster to the table, it's quite dead obviously. You take one look at Larry the Lobster and you started to shriek, to cry to beat the band."

Cole: "Of course Larry the Lobster was a goner and it was my fault."

Maggie: "Yeah well, we were all so upset I think everybody ended up eating hamburgers."
