Tim Quote #2248
Quote from Tim in I Was a Teenage Taylor
Jill: What are we gonna do about them?
Tim: Well, what any good parents would do. Scare the daylights out of them.
Jill: "An eye for an eye" is not my idea of good parenting.
Tim: Honey, I know this is your area and you're the expert here, but let me explain a little about the psychology of Halloween.
Jill: This should be good.
Tim: Just go with me for a minute. When a child puts a severed head, real or otherwise, in an oven, they're not doing that to scare you. They're doing that to reach out. They're saying, "Mom and Dad, I love you. Please, please, scare me."
Jill: [laughs] It would really mean a lot to you if I went along with this, wouldn't it?
Tim: It's not for me. It's for the children.

Quote from Al
Brad: How would you like to help us do this prank on our parents?
Al: Well, I wouldn't feel so bad about scaring your dad again, but no, I wouldn't feel right scaring your mom.
Randy: Really? Even after what she said about you?
Al: What did she say about me?
Randy: Oh, I believe she referred to your little Halloween party as "the marathon yawn-a-thon".
Al: Jill said that?
Randy: That's what I heard. What about you, Brad?
Brad: Yeah, I heard her say that. She also said your mom doesn't bob for apples. She bobs for ham hocks.
Al: I'm in!
Quote from Al
Brad: Now we gotta think of something just as good to get back at them.
Al: Well, you're Tim's sons. I'm sure you inherited the torture chromosome.
