Quote
[Homer has asked Wilma into his bedroom to see what happens as he prepares for bed. After removing his hooks and harness, he 'wiggles' into his pajama top]
Homer Parrish:
I'm lucky. I have my elbows. Some of the boys don't. But I can't button them up.
Wilma Cameron:
I'll do that, Homer.
Homer Parrish:
This is when I know I'm helpless. My hands are down there on the bed. I can't put them on again without calling to somebody for help. I can't smoke a cigarette or read a book. If that door should blow shut, I can't open it and get out of this room. I'm as dependent as a baby that doesn't know how to get anything except to cry for it. Well, now you know, Wilma. Now you have an idea of what it is. I guess you don't know what to say. It's all right. Go on home. Go away like your family said.
Wilma Cameron:
[She kneels in front of him]
I know what to say, Homer. I love you and I'm never going to leave you... never.
[She kisses him]
