Quote from Frank in The Disciplinarian
Marie: Debra, when it comes to discipline, it's only natural for one of the parents to be the bad guy. Frank: I was the best bad guy ever to walk the streets of Lynbrook. These two knew not to mess with me. When they were up to their usual monkeyshines, all I had to do was give 'em "the step." Debra: What's that? [Frank stands up, shakes himself off and then turns towards Ray and Robert to take a step forward] Robert: Take it easy. Ray: Just relax. Frank: End of monkeyshines! Debra: Wow. Marie: He was good.
