Carla Quote #1019

Quote from Carla in Honor Thy Mother

Sam: How are you doing, honey?
Carla: Better. I went home, went to my bedroom, shut off all the lights and laid down on my bed. Then I started thinking. What if I was dying and Serafina refused to do the one thing that meant the most to me. How would I feel?
Norm: So you apologized to your mother?
Carla: No. I went out and yelled at Serafina. I felt a lot better. So I went and yelled at all the rest of the kids. Then I started thinking, why should I be having all this fun when my mom's dying? So I decided I had to try to do something for her.
Woody: Well, I've got a bunch of these coupon books left. They're only good for a month, but I guess in her case, that doesn't matter.
Carla: Anyway, all the kids were there, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask them if anyone would fulfill their grandmother's dying wish and change their name to Benito Mussolini.
Sam: Any takers?
Carla: No. But I got two Madonnas and an MC Hammer. Well, that's that. I tried everything I can.
Woody: She didn't try the coupons.

Quote from Frasier

Sam: Anyway, I gave her the day off so she could just go home and cool out, you know.
Frasier: Well, very often that's the best thing you can do when you're not getting along with a family member. Remove yourself entirely from them. Find some neutral place where you can take the time you need to be away from them.
Norm: You really think so, Fras?
Frasier: Well, that's... That's why we're all here, isn't it?

Quote from Frasier

Carla: Well, the dream is always the same. There's a casket on a slab in an empty room. You walk slowly toward it. Suddenly, the lid flies open.
Norm: You see your own face?
Carla: No, you see these feet, 'cause you're looking at the wrong end. Then, you look upward, and there's your own face, pale and bluish with pennies over your eyes. And that's when you bolt up in bed screaming.
Frasier: Carla, death is an earthly scientific passage predicted by either massive physical injury or progressive bodily deterioration. There is as little validity in a supposed death dream as there is in the cliched image of death itself as a grim, bloodless ghoul whose bony finger reaches out to tap you on the shoulder when your number's up.
Lilith: Frasier, it's time to go.
Frasier: [screams] Don't do that, woman! For God's sakes, put on some blusher.

Quote from Carla

Carla: [on the phone] If you're lying to me, I'm gonna rip out your slimy, gray tongue. [hangs up]
Norm: Whoa. Sounds kind of serious.
Carla: It's my mother.
Sam: Well, what's the matter with her?
Carla: She had the dream. [gestures with hands]
Sam: What dream's that?
Carla: The death dream. [gestures] Whenever someone in my family has it, you can just start divvying up the jewelry.
Rebecca: What exactly is this death dream? [gestures]
Frasier: Yes, and, uh, why exactly do you always do this [gestures]... when you say, "the death dream?" [gestures]
Carla: You just did it.
Frasier: Carry on.
