Adult Chris: [v.o.] From the time I was young, the thing I dreamt most about was cars. Even though I couldn't drive, I always imagined what kind of car I would get if I could. Drew and I used to pretend every car that came down the street was ours.
Chris: My red.
Drew: Oh, that's my green.
Chris: Mine. [siren wailing] Nah, you can have that one.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Having a steering wheel in my hand was one of the most amazing feelings I had ever had, right behind my first kiss, which hadn't happened yet.

Julius: Wow, you really can drive.
Chris: I learned from watching you.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] It was just a few feet, but they were the most exciting feet I had ever experienced.
Man under car: Wait, wait... h-help.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Moving my dad's car on street cleaning day was great. Sometimes they even cleaned the street.

Rochelle: Drew, Tonya, come on, let's go.
Julius: How come y'all ain't at school?
Tonya: School is closed for teachers' records' day.
Drew: Yeah, and Mama's making us go with her so we don't disturb you while you sleep. See you.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My mother always thought the worst would happen if my father didn't get enough sleep.
[fantasy: Julius falls asleep at the wheel of his truck, hitting other cars]

Rochelle: Just be quiet. Boy, don't get on my last nerve today. Uh, excuse me, miss, could you tell me when my case is up?
Clerk: Let's see. You're case number 89. And as soon as this one ends, we're moving on to case number... two.
Rochelle: Number two?! [gavel bangs] What are you talking about, number two?!
Bailiff: Excuse me, uh, ma'am. Could you maintain decorum and observe complete silence while this court is in session? Thank you.
Rochelle: [mimicking bailiff]
Clerk: That way.
Rochelle: What's he talking about? Come on.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] I was supposed to park across the street, but now I was on the highway to Hell.

Greg: Well, aren't you afraid your dad might find out?
Julius: He's a pretty hard sleeper. As long as I'm back by 5:00, I think I should be okay.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] The truth was my father could sleep through anything.
[fantasy: Julius is fast asleep on his bed in a smoke-filled room as an alarm blares:]
Fireman: There we go. Hey, wake up, man! Wake up, the whole place is on fire! [sprays Julius down with the hose] We got to get out of here now! Wake up! Hey, fellas, get out! The place is burning down! Get out!

Rochelle: Disgusting. Yeah, I know I learned my lesson. Next time I'm gonna come in a tighter dress and a low cut top.
Judge: [bangs gavel] Who said that?
[Rochelle points to the older woman sitting next to her]
Judge: Bailiff, get granny up out of here.
Bailiff: Come on, granny, get your butt up out of here.
Rochelle: Sorry. No, you got to go. Shh. Shh.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] I learned all kinds of things about driving a car but not a single thing about fixing 'em.
Greg: Maybe it's just out of gas.
Chris: It's not out of gas.
Greg: Maybe the battery's dead.
Chris: Great, then we could have a double funeral.
