Marty: Hey, Tim.Can't talk. New job. Gotta go! [exits]
Tim: Call me later! What's his new job?
Harry: He's working down at Stu's Fish Market deveining shrimp.
Tim: Why's his hair all wet?
Benny: Uh, sometimes they fight back.
Harry: No, no, no. He's helping me test out some of those new high-powered shower heads. The Binford 6100.
Tim: [grunts] Oh, yeah, yeah. It's a great thing. You switch it over to pulse, it'll blow the hair right off your legs.

Benny: Oh, by the way, Harry, when do you want me for Thanksgiving?
Harry: I don't want you at all, but if you have to be there, be there at 2:00.
Benny: Great. I'll bum a ride with Marty.
Tim: Marty? Marty's taking his family to your house for Thanksgiving?
Harry: No, just Marty. Delores frightens the children.

Tim: Wait a minute. Our family always spends Thanksgiving together. Now Marty's going to your house for Thanksgiving. He's taking a shower in the hardware store. Guys, what's up?
Benny: I'm not at liberty to say.
Tim: There's a donut in it for you.
Benny: Marty and Nancy split up and Marty's sleeping at the store. [eats donut]
Tim: I knew they were having trouble, but how did it come to this?
Benny: Well, in my view, Nancy projected repressed paternal conflicts onto the relationship, while Marty was still grappling with intimacy issues.
Tim: You watch too much Oprah.

Tim: I'm serious. He and Nancy have split up.
Jill: Oh, no. What did he say?
Tim: I had to learn this from Benny. Why wouldn't Marty bring this information to me?
Jill: Well, he's afraid you're gonna criticize him. Remember the last time when Marty and Nancy were fighting?
Tim: I was totally supportive.
Jill: You called him a gutless loser.
Tim: In a very supportive way.
Jill: Honey, if you want to help your brother, you're gonna have to realize this is gonna be a very tough time for him. You have to bend over backwards. You have to be supportive. You have to be non-judgmental.
Tim: I gotta be supportive and non-judgmental, but he gets to stay in a hardware store. Where's the justice in that?

Tim: Is there any way you guys can work this out?
Marty: I don't think so. You know, we went into counseling to try to fix the marriage, but, well, we both realized we were just looking for a way out.
Tim: This is gonna be really hard on you and the kids.
Marty: Marriage hasn't worked for a long time. She thought I didn't make enough money. She said I wasn't ambitious enough.
Tim: Come on, Marty. That's ridiculous.
Marty: I know. I mean, I think I do pretty good for myself. Don't you?
Tim: Yeah. Well, you're young, you're smart, you're talented, you're...
Marty: Eating peanut butter with a putty knife.
Tim: But you got great legs.

Tim: Well, I'll have you know, I talked to Marty. I was very supportive. I told him we'd do anything we could to help him.
Jill: I knew you had it in you.
Tim: You'd be real proud of me. I reminded him that he's family and he might as well just stay at our house.
Jill: You told Marty that he could live here?
Brad: With us?
Tim: Well, just until he gets steady work and gets back on his feet.
Mark: When was the last time Uncle Marty had a steady job?
Brad: [chuckles] I don't even think we were born yet.
Tim: Hey, hey. He's got a great job now. He's gonna be huge in shrimp.

Brad: Okay. Where am I supposed to sleep?
Tim: Randy's room.
Mark: And where am I supposed to sleep?
Tim: Randy's room.
Brad: Wait, wait, wait. Don't we get any say in this?
Tim: Brad, Marty is family. When family's in trouble, we gotta pull together.
Brad: Dad, I'm family. Okay? And I don't like the thought of sleeping in a room with Mark.
Mark: You think you got it bad, I gotta stay with you.
Brad: Yeah!

Jill: I can't agree to this until we work out the details.
Tim: I've worked out all the details.
Jill: Really? Really? Okay, who is gonna watch those girls when Marty is working?
Tim: Don't know.
Jill: Are the boys gonna get to move back in their rooms when the girls aren't here?
Tim: Don't know.
Jill: Do you even know when they're gonna be moving in? [doorbell rings] No way.

Marty: Oh, man. I forgot to make their lunch.
Tim: Got up early. I made it myself. I knew just what they wanted. You got the Spam and squid sandwiches, right?
Marty: You guys are unbelievable. I mean, how am I gonna repay you?
Tim: Your watch.

Marty: Sorry I'm late. I was working overtime. Girls give you any trouble?
Jill: No. No. They were angels.
Tim: I helped them with their homework.
Jill: Then I corrected it.
