Chris Quote #3
Quote from Chris in Everybody Hates the Pilot
Adult Chris: [v.o.] After school, I had a plan.
Greg: This is crazy!
Chris: Man, it's a school fight. School fights only last a minute because somebody always comes and breaks them up. All I have to do is get in the first punch. Somebody will stop it.
Kids: [chant] Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Joey Caruso: What are you waiting for, Cornbread?
Chris: [punches Caruso] This should be over any minute!
[thirty minutes later, Caruso is still pounding Chris as "Ebony and Ivory" plays]
Chris: Is somebody's gonna stop this?
[A White police officer walks by]

Quote from Julius
Julius: I know you're not gonna throw that away. Eat that. That's 30 cents worth of oatmeal.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My father always knew what everything costs.
[montage:]
Julius: [retrieving a chicken wing from the trash] That's $1.09 in the trash.
Julius: [next to a tray of burnt biscuits] That's $2 on fire.
Julius: That's 49 cents of spilled milk dripping all over my table. Somebody's gonna drink this milk.
Quote from Julius
Julius: Everything okay at school?
Adult Chris: [v.o.] I didn't tell him about the fight. My dad went to school during the Civil Rights era. After hoses, tanks and dog bites on your ass, somehow Joey Caruso didn't compare.
Chris: Yeah, it was all right.
Julius: Good. I'll see you in the morning.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My father wasn't the type to say "I love you". He was one of four fathers on the block. "I'll see you in the morning" meant he was coming home. Coming home was his way of saying "I love you".
Julius: Unplug that clock, boy. You can't tell time when you sleep. That's 2 cents an hour.
Quote from Rochelle
Rochelle: If I ever catch any of y'all spray painting on anybody's wall, I'm gonna put my foot so far up your behind, you'll have toes for teeth. Get inside.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] That's my mother Rochelle. She had a hundred recipes for whooping ass.
[montage:]
Rochelle: Boy, I will slap the caps off your knees.
Rochelle: I will knock you into last night.
Rochelle: I will slap your name out the phonebook and call Ma Bell and tell her I did it.
