Archie Bunker's Place/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The second-season premiere, "Archie Alone", where Archie starts talking to one of Edith's old slippers before looking up (while crying):

Archie: It wasn't supposed to be like this, you know. I was supposed to be the first one to go. I know I always used to kid you about you going first. You know I never meant none of that. And that morning when you was laying there. I was shaking you and yelling at you to go down and fix my breakfast. I didn't know. You had no right to leave me that way, Edith. Without giving me just one more chance to say I loved you!
