Tim Quote #1899
Quote from Tim in Oh, Brother
Tim: Speaking of "kin," I hired my brother Marty to work at Tool Time. And ever since he's been there he's been driving me crazy.
Wilson: Mm, mm-hm. Mm-hm, mm-hm.
Tim: He thinks I'm bossing him around. I think he's just a pain in the butt. I might have to fire him.
Wilson: Hm. You know, Tim, I'm reminded of the story of Romulus and Remus.
Tim: [inquisitive grunt]
Wilson: They're two brothers who were abandoned at birth and nursed by a she-wolf.
Tim: Sounds like the story of Al and Cal Borland.

Quote from Wilson
Wilson: See, Romulus and Remus were very close until they decided to work together to build a city.
Tim: Yeah? What happened?
Wilson: Well, Romulus was the boss and he wanted things done his way. And Remus disagreed with him and that angered Romulus. So instead of working things out, you know what he did?
Tim: I'd fire him!
Wilson: No, he killed him.
Tim: Oh, boy! Oh, boy. Well, I guess when you're raised by a wolf, you lack certain social skills.
Wilson: No, Tim. The point is if Romulus hadn't been so rash, and tried to meet his brother halfway, they might've been able to patch things up.
Tim: Oh, I see. I should try to meet Marty halfway.
Wilson: There you go.
Quote from Marty
Tim: Marty, you can't afford to quit.
Marty: Oh, don't tell me what I can afford. You're not the only brother I can turn to. If I have to, I'll borrow money from John.
Tim: He's in worse shape than you.
Marty: He'll get it from Jeff.
Tim: Where's he gonna get it?
Marty: He can get it from Rick.
Tim: And where's Rick gonna get the money?
Marty: From you.
Quote from Al
Tim: Welcome to the brand-new Tool Time set. We got a lot more tools.
Al: A lot more fire extinguishers.
