Al Quote #414
Quote from Al in Al's Fair Lady
Al: I stopped by to see if you'd like to take a lap around the neighborhood with me.
Wilson: Well, I'd love to, but I gotta finish checking this wiring.
Al: Well, no rush. We still have to wait for Tim to come back from his test drive. [car speeding] Assuming he comes back. I'd hate for him to run off with Trudy's generous gift.
Wilson: You obviously are enjoying it very much.
Al: Oh, I am. I am. I mean, at first I was a little uncomfortable, but then, Tim gave me some very deep insights. [Wilson blinks in exasperation] [tires screeching] Yeah, he said not to worry about how much the car costs. He said even though I thought it was an inappropriate gift that I should just relax and enjoy it.
Wilson: Mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm.
Al: And you should've seen the look on Trudy's face when she gave it to me. Oh, she was so happy.
Wilson: So Trudy was happy and Tim was happy, but you don't sound so sure.
Al: Well, this kind of puts a little pressure on the relationship. I mean, suddenly, you know, the emotional stakes are much higher. And what if it doesn't work out? How can I walk away without feeling guilty?
Wilson: You can always drive away. You've got a really fast car. [Al hangs his head in desperation] Oh, Albert, I'm sorry.

Quote from Wilson
Wilson: Have you talked to Trudy about this?
Al: Oh, I can't. I don't want to hurt her feelings.

Al: I suppose you're right.
Quote from Al
Tim: Let's take a look at this van, shall we? It's a custom-made Chevy half-ton. Custom-made flares. It's got a duel rear axle, aluminum wheels, 440 horse 350, but inside is the real story. This thing is equipped to fix anything from a Hoover vacuum to the Hoover Dam. Complete set of Allen wrenches, circular saw, cordless drill, table vise. [holds up a bag of Cheetos] Even one of Al's vices.
Al: And here we have a laptop computer with a complete set of home repair manuals on CD-ROM.
Tim: We call it the brains of the operation.
Al: Something we've never called Tim.
Quote from Al
Al: Oh, no. Trudy, I really like you.
Trudy: You do?
Al: Oh, yeah. I remember the first time I saw you, you had that wire in one hand, and the rat in the other hand, and I said to myself, "Oh, boy, Al! Don't let this one get away!"
