Wilbur Post: Just think, tomorrow's Ed's first day on the job. Life's funny, you know. You get a young horse like Ed, you coddle him, you play with him, you spoil him a little bit, you hope he doesn't grow up. First thing you know, he's punching a timeclock.
Carol Post: [sarcastic] It's tough.
Wilbur Post: Good for him, though. Work's good, builds character. I would't want him difting through life like Kay's brother. A horse has got to learn to stand on his own four feet.
Carol Post: It's late, go to sleep honey.
Wilbur Post: I think I'll make him a nice lunch tomorrow. Something that'll give him energy. What should I make for him, Carol?
Carol Post: [more sarcastic] How about a triple-decker hay sandwich?
