After watching Psycho, the girls find it difficult to sleep, so they stay up reminiscing about how they all came to live with each other.

- This is the first of two times that Blanche has to go to her bedroom for the whipped cream. The second is in the season 3 episode Three on a Couch.
[edit] Memorable Quotes
- Blanche: Psycho is the reason I prefer not to shower alone.
Dorothy: Sure, Blanche and Goldilocks and the Three Bears is why you prefer not to sleep alone.
- Dorothy: Tell me, Rose, did they ever shoot a herring out of a cannon?
Rose: Once. But he landed in a tree. After that, no herring would do it.
- Blanche: It was then I realized that my bosoms had the power to make music!
Dorothy: Didn't Bette Midler win a special Grammy for that?
- Blanche: I have a room for rent, and the name is Blanche Devereaux.
Rose: Why would you name a room Blanche Devereaux?
- Madame Zelda: I see a man kneeling over a woman in a nurse's uniform.
Blanche: If it was last Wednesday, that was me and the gentleman I'm currently dating. But that was a French maid's uniform.
- Dorothy: After that, I was sure I had messed up. But then, I met Rose and I realized I could've shown up naked and playing a ukelele and still gotten the room.
- (Blanche and the clerk talk in the produce section)
Produce Clerk: Those are nice cantaloupes.
Blanche: Why, thank you!
- Blanche: What is the cereal doing in the refrigerator?
Dorothy: It lasts longer in the refrigerator.
Blanche: It belongs in the cabinet.
Rose: You're both wrong. It belongs in a glass case. That way, it's not only visually appealing but you can see if they cheated you out of raisins.
