Quote from Norm in Ill-Gotten Gaines
Sam: Why do you let him talk to you like that, huh? Norm: Yeah, you got to stand up to him, Wood. I'd never let my father-in-law take advantage of me that way. Cliff: l, uh, thought your father-in-law was dead, Norm. Norm: You know, he might be. Haven't seen him in ages. Come to think of it, I do remember Vera left a note on the refrigerator one night. Something about a funeral. Ah, shoot, this is gonna drive me crazy.
