Albert Van Cleve:
I assume you're referring to my future father-in-law, who happens to be one of the great meat packers of our time.
Bertha Van Cleve:
Yes, Father Cleve, don't you realize that every piece of beef we eat comes from one of Mr. Strable's many, many plants.
Hugo Van Cleve:
Does that include the steak I fought ten rounds with last night?
Albert Van Cleve:
Grandfather, you don't seem to have any idea of the importance of Mr. Strable. He created the most famous character in American advertising - Mable the Cow.
Randolph Van Cleve:
You've seen her, Father, on billboards.
Bertha Van Cleve:
That big happy cow smiling at you over the fence and saying in big letters, um... uh... How does it go, uh...?
Albert Van Cleve:
"To the world my name is Mabel, which you'll find on every label; I am packed by E. F. Strable for the pleasure of your table."
Hugo Van Cleve:
No cow in its right mind could have said anything like that. Sounds more like Mr. Strable.
Albert Van Cleve:
Grandfather, please, I beg of you. The family understands your humor, but it's a typical kind of New York humor.
Hugo Van Cleve:
In other words it's not for yokels, hm?
