Frasier Quote #681

Quote from Frasier in Daddy's Little Middle-Aged Girl

Rebecca: It was terrific. You know, when I was a kid, I used to be afraid of my dad 'cause he was sort of pushy and overbearing, but I'll tell you, we have really learned to communicate. It's just like two adults, one on one.
Carla: You mean like one adult asks the other one for a raise in their allowance, and the other adult says, "Okay, Pookie"? [Norm chuckles]
Rebecca: Very, very funny, Carla.
Frasier: Now, now, now, let's not all jump down Rebecca's throat. I received a stipend from my father for a time, a little out-of-pocket money to spend as I saw fit on entertainment, what have you. So, you see, I've been through exactly what Rebecca's going through right now.
Rebecca: Thank you, Frasier.
Frasier: And then, I turned 11.

Quote from Frasier

Norm: Anybody else curious about Hanover?
Frasier: Come on, Norm, I'm sure it's just a a normal, rural, small, little farm town. I'm sure Woody's stories are all greatly exaggerated.
Norm: Want to go there?
Frasier: What, end up as a human sacrifice to the corn god? Thank you, no.

Quote from Woody

Sam: You think Kelly's gonna be happy in that little place of yours?
Woody: Well, what does it matter? I'm the husband. I call the shots.
Frasier: Isn't that rather sexist, Woody?
Woody: Well you've got to understand. That's how I was brought up. Back in Hanover, the man is the king of the castle. When he gives an order, all his wives have to listen.
Frasier: Wives, Woody?
Woody: Wife. I said wife, singular. [laughs] I mean, the thought that a man could have more than one wife, that's preposterous. I mean, I not to mention illegal. I know that. So do all the citizens of Hanover.

Quote from Cliff

Carla: Hey, guys. Guys, guess what grown-up bar manager is still getting an allowance from her Navy dad.
Woody: Who?
Sam: An allowance, huh? That explains how she can afford a fancy car and that apartment of hers.
Cliff: Boy, imagine somebody getting an allowance at her age, huh? [scoffs] My ma cut me off when I was 30. No ifs, ands or buts, and it hurt, I tell you. Hurt like hell. Oh, but it had a happy ending.
Norm: Made you more self-reliant, Cliffie?
Cliff: Nah, nah, a couple years later, her pension fund went bankrupt. She had to come crawling to me for some dough. Yeah, I just gave her the old horse laugh. What goes around, huh, boys?
