Ray: Mom, I didn't purposely not tell you I was gonna be on TV, I just forgot.
Marie: Then maybe I'll just forget to watch.

Quote from Robert

Debra: What's going on, Robert?
Robert: Okay. I just got a call from the FBI.
Ray: The FBI?
Debra: Oh, my gosh!
Robert: My captain has connections there, and he recommended me. Today, Special Agent Thomas Garfield called to set up a job interview.
Debra: Oh, Robert, that is fantastic!
Robert: Yeah, I know, I can't believe it. We have a meeting tomorrow morning. This is gonna be great I'm gonna get a good shave, I'm gonna put on my lucky suit, and Ma, what do you say, I'll come over early and you'll make me breakfast? I'm thinking funny-shaped pancakes.
Marie: Of course, dear. I'm just surprised about all this. I thought you were gonna do your 20 years and then retire.
Robert: Yeah, I know, but Ma, this is the FBI! I mean, this is like a whole new phase in my life. You know, "Robert Barone, Part Two."
Frank: "This time he's fatter!"

Quote from Frank

Robert: Good pancakes.
Frank: Yeah. Juice?
Robert: What?
Frank: You gonna have some juice?
Robert: Oh. No.
Frank: 'Cause I was just thinking you might want some before your big FBI interview.
Robert: No, actually I'm feeling pretty good.
Frank: Get me some juice.

Quote from Marie

Marie: Here you go.
Robert: Oh. Great, Ma. Thanks for ironing that for me.
Marie: Okay. Put that on. And put this trench coat on over it.
Robert: Nah, don't need it. Just my lucky suit.
Marie: Yes, but I think you should wear this coat because it makes you look very FBl-ish.
Robert: All right.
Marie: No, put it on now. So you'll get used to it.
Robert: Could I finish my breakfast first?
Marie: Sure. Sure.

Quote from Frank

Marie: I feel terrible.
Frank: Aw... It'll be all right. Listen, get me some juice.

Quote from Robert

Agent Garfield: Why don't we get started?
Robert: All right. So what's that, my permanent record?
Agent Garfield: Yes. Let's see no disciplinary actions, 11 commendations. Very nice.
Robert: Yes, the commendations are nice. But really, the job is its own reward.
Agent Garfield: Well, that's the kind of attitude we look for around here. It's about teamwork. Being part of a team.
