Carla Quote #1258

Quote from Carla in The Last Picture Show

TV Reporter: [on TV] We're going live now to the Route 93 overpass, where an unidentified woman has climbed to the outside rail and is threatening to jump. An emergency rescue team has had no luck so far in persuading the woman to climb down from her dangerous perch.
Frasier: Oh, boy. As one who has been there, it is imperative that they do nothing to agitate that woman.
Cliff: Boy, oh, boy. I mean, what what has to go wrong with your life to be driven to such desperate measures, huh?
TV Reporter: We have a tentative identification. The woman is Anna Cosetti of Boston.
Carla: Sam, can I take the afternoon off?
Sam: Why?
Carla: I gotta go look after the kids; That woman's my babysitter.

Cliff: So, uh, what'd I miss? Why- Why is that girl, uh, running around screaming at everybody?

Quote from Woody

Frasier: So, this is your precious drive-in? [chuckles] Tin box squawking in our ears, endless parade of people walking in front of the car, a man in a rubber dragon suit stepping on miniature Japanese houses.
Norm: Yeah, you believe they're gonna tear this place down?
Woody: You guys, this couldn't really happen, could it? Hmm? I mean, don't think I'm stupid or anything, but I mean, you know, if there really was atomic testing offshore, and it woke up a dinosaur, and it got affected by the radiation, I mean, you know, not exactly like this, but maybe something pretty close?
Norm: Woody, Woody, Woody, when are you gonna grow up? [chuckles] Course it could happen.

Quote from Cliff

Cliff: Boy, oh, boy, you know, I'll never forget Ma used to take me down there all bundled up in my pyjamas and all, you know. Yeah, as a matter of fact, it was at the Twi-Lite that I first saw Herbie, the Love Bug.
Norm: Cliffie, Herbie, the Love Bug came out in, uh, 1969, and you were born in, uh...
Sam: Oh, please, man, don't. Don't do the math.
