Robin Quote #245

Quote from Robin in Sandcastles in the Sand

Robin: Oh, cool. I wish I didn't have to go to work in the morning.
Simon: Oh, but, babe, you got to go to work. You got to play our demo on your show.
Robin: Oh, well, you know, it's not a show. It's the news.
Simon: Right. So you can be, like "Hey, did you hear there's some news? There's a rad band you guys should check out." And then play it. Or just, like, the first three songs.
[later, as Robin presents the news:]
Robin: And now it's time for "Puppy Corner," some little angels looking for a new home, courtesy of the Midtown Animal Shelter.
[Pictures of cute dogs are shown as Simon's hard-metal music plays in the background: "Murder Train", The Foreskins, Currently Seeking Representation]
[later:]
Robin: Hey, a lot of puppies got adopted. Of course, a lot of the people calling in thought we were going to kill them.

Robin: [singing] Met you at the mall. Didn't know how far ... My friends said I was a fool. You're a fool. [Shut up]. 'Cause you were a fool and got kicked out of school. [You're so rad.] Together we were gonna travel the globe. From Alberta to Ontario. And now I'm building sandcastles in the sand. [Sandcastles in the sand] Though I could fly when you held my hand. Thought I could fly [But now] Eternity returns to black and white. It was the greatest weekend and a half of my life. We used to go to the beach. On our favorite bench. We'd sit and talk and you taught me to French.
