Julius Quote #177
Quote from Julius in Everybody Hates Thanksgiving
Julius: I'm sorry, forgive me, I didn't go to college. Where's that carving knife?
Louis: Julius man, I'm just trying to help.
Julius: You want to help me? Get back out there and start singing and dancing again. That's how you can help me.
Louis: What is your problem, man?
Julius: I'm sick of you, that's my problem. Ever since you come over here, you been trying to make me look bad. I go out of my way to make a dinner for you, and you out there doing Ashford and Simpson. I bought all these groceries and even used Mom's recipes.
Louis: Whoa, who told you to use Mom's recipes? You know Mama can't cook. I didn't tell you to do any of this. All I said was that I'm coming over. And you're the one running around here looking like the Galloping Gourmet.
Julius: Forget it. I'm done.
Louis: Ah, you can't stop cook- You got people here, man.
Julius: They like you so much let's see how they like your cooking. Happy Thanksgiving.

Quote from Chris
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Even though I didn't like the idea of homework over Thanksgiving, I did learn what Thanksgiving was all about.
Chris: To me, Thanksgiving means family and togetherness. Thanksgiving came about when the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock. The Indians greeted them, provided them shelter, taught them how to grow corn and how to prepare for the winter. They went on to cook one of the greatest meals the pilgrims every ate. And in appreciation for showing them how to prosper and survive in this brave new world, the pilgrims killed the Indians and created a holiday in their honor. So on this Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for my family, my friends, but most importantly, I'm thankful that I'm not a Native American.
[Ms. Morello is the only person to clap. The other students give Chris a blank stare. Greg shakes his head at Chris. Outside the class room, a tear runs down the eye of a Native American man.]
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Happy Thanksgiving.
