Quote
[in the alternate 'Pottersville' universe, George knocks on the front door of his former house which is now a run-down boarding house. His terribly-aged, unhappy mother opens the door]
Ma Bailey:
[hostile tone]
What? What! Who are you? Wadda want?
George Bailey:
Mother?
Ma Bailey:
Mother? I'm Ma Bailey! If you want a room... we're all full up. Get out of here!
George Bailey:
Mother, don't you remember me? I'm your son, George.
Ma Bailey:
George who? I've never had a son, named George! Get out of here before I call the police!
George Bailey:
No... please Ma... I mean, Mrs. Bailey. Can't you let me come inside? It's cold out here and it's Christmas Eve. I'm in trouble and I'm going through something awful now. Can't you let me in for just a few minutes, for a cup of coffee or tea? It's just until I get over it.
Ma Bailey:
Get over what? I don't let strangers into my house, not unless they're sent by someone I know.
George Bailey:
But I know everyone you know! Like... your brother-in-law, Uncle Billy.
Ma Bailey:
[suspicious]
You know him?
George Bailey:
Of course I do.
Ma Bailey:
When'd you see him last?
George Bailey:
Today, over at his house.
Ma Bailey:
That's a lie! He's been locked up in an insane asylum upstate every since he lost his business! And if you ask me, that's where you belong too!
[Ma Bailey slams the door in George's face as he looks on with shock]
