Hank Quote #25

Quote from Hank in Pat's Secret

Hank: And I also worry about offspring, Robert. Did you know that addiction can be an hereditary trait?
Marie: My grandchildren! [hits Robert]
Hank: Yes, Marie. And what kind of an example do you think you'll set for them, Robert?
Robert: Hopefully good to very good... mostly in that range.
Hank: Mm-hmm. The truth is, Amy, none of this surprises Mother and me. Sadly, we've come to expect this sort of thing.
Peter: He's a renegade cop. He plays by his own rules. Pshew!

Robert: Not even Raymond?
Pat: No. [Robert smiles]
Robert: So, if you don't mind me asking, how have you been able to keep it hidden?
