Robert Quote #709
Quote from Robert in The Model
William Dennison: Hey, Robert. Have a seat. Glad you could make it.
Robert: Are you sure about all this? Because, you know, I'm not much of a looker in the, uh, sober light of day. Am I right? I mean, you saw me at a Chinese restaurant. They're not exactly known for their lighting. So I totally understand if...
William Dennison: Robert! Robert, relax. We're just talking.
Robert: Okay.
William Dennison: So, how tall are you?
Robert: Uh, I'm 6'8" and a half, but I can schlump to 6'5".
William Dennison: No, no. Actually, one of the toughest things to find is someone who's tall who also photographs well. Most of the guys your height are... Well, they're more like circus freaks.
Robert: So I'm not a circus freak?
William Dennison: I'm not saying you're a cover model. But what we do here is more on the pages between the covers, where the advertisers want character faces to sell everything from new cars to headache medicines.
Robert: Oh, yeah. I could be the headache guy. I get headaches all the time. You should meet my family.

Quote from Ray
Amy: Sorry we took so long, but listen to this. While we were waiting for our order in the bar, Robert got discovered!
Debra: Oh, what do you mean?
Ray: Discovered as in, "Hey, I found Bigfoot"?
Quote from Frank
Marie: We noticed your lights were on.
Amy: Guess what?
Marie: What?
Amy: Robert signed with a modeling agent.
Frank: All right, what's the punch line?
Robert: No joke, Dad. William Dennison of the William Dennison Modeling Agency felt that I had potential as a model, and, uh, I've decided to fulfill it.
Marie: Oh, Robert, that's wonderful! Oh! Even as a baby, you were always a looker.
Frank: I always thought he was more of a "Look at that."
Quote from Ray
Ray: No, Robert. This is what they want. God forbid you should feel good about yourself. This family is so negative, and I'm sick of it!
Marie: It's not him. It's the photos.
Ray: It's you! And you! And you, and you, and even you!
Robert: You're losin' me, man.
Ray: All of you. You're giver-uppers and put-er-downers.
Debra: Ray, where you going?
Ray: I know some sports people, and they do some modeling and have agents, and I'd like a second opinion. So you can all just stay here in your little suburban suburbia where everything is in focus and nobody's head is cut off! [exits]
Robert: Raymond really believes in me.
