Grace finds a tape from her Uncle Jerry and when she plays it, we hear, "Mini, you know how much you mean to me. You're my family, and this Chevy Citation represents my deep, deep affection for you, as long as you have this car I'll always be with you." Grace then says, "And you sold my Uncle Jerry for $350.

Answer: $3000

After Sister Louise initially refuses to sell the car back to them, Grace says, "I'm really sorry about the whole zoo thing, but nobody messes with my family. I mean, what do you need with a car anyway? Can't you fly?" Sister Louise says, "Well, let's see.

The Bible does teach the value of charity and helping your fellow man. But God's no fool. I want $3,000 in traveler's checks." Grace says, "What? Are you kidding? You paid $400." Sister Louise then says, "Look, you two work it out, I got to go. "What a Friend We Have in Cheesecake" doesn't run itself." Will then tells Grace, "I'm not spending $3,000 on this piece of junk."
