Ray Quote #1731
Quote from Ray in The Surprise Party
Ray: You know, I can't believe that you're saying this, because I was... I was just thinking to myself why don't you like me?
Lois: What?
Ray: Yeah. I mean, uh... You know, you see how much thought I put into this Chinese idea, and you don't want anything to do with it. You just dismiss it out of hand. How do you think it makes me feel? You just rush in, and you wanna plan everything, and you won't even let me have any say in my own wife's special day.
Lois: Raymond, l...
Ray: You know, I've lost my appetite.
Lois: I don't know what to say. I didn't know this meant that much to you. Oh, I'm sorry, Raymond. [Ray nods] I think you're a wonderful son-in-law. I mean, I couldn't have found a better person who would care so much for my daughter.
Ray: Thank you. And, just so you know, I like you.
Lois: I'm so glad we talked.
Ray: Me too. So you'll change it all to Chinese, right?

Quote from Frank
Frank: I can't believe you're having a Chinese party after what those people did to me in Korea.
Ray: I think everybody's over that, Dad.
Frank: Not me. I spent a week in a foxhole in the pouring rain.
Ray: All right, Dad.
Frank: I still have toenail fungus.
Marie: Frank, that's not party talk.
Marie: Though I have to say, Raymond, this theme is so unusual. I hope people could still eat with all these dragons around.
Frank: I do it every day.
Quote from Lois
Lois: Why don't you like me, Raymond?
Ray: What? What are you talking about? I like you.
Lois: Let's be honest. You are so uncomfortable around me. You never say more than two words. And it seems whenever we are together, you'll do just about anything to get away from me. I mean, what am I supposed to think? You- You don't like me, you don't like my ideas. I just wish it were different between us.
