Quote from Lois in Hal's Birthday
Lois: [to the boys] OK, everybody, calm down. I understand what you're saying, I am not gonna yell, I am not gonna scream. We are capable of talking about this without raising our voices. Now, boys, I want you to understand I'm sorry about what happened. But you have to understand I get a little emotional when I learn that my oldest son was acting like an idiot and throwing his life away. Now, that doesn't mean- [Piama throws a bucket of cold water over Lois] Piama: Stop talking about him like that! Francis is my heart! [Hal throws a bucket of cream over Piama] Hal: OK, we're even! Everyone's fine and there's no need for escalation! Isn't it beautiful when things work out? Francis: Yeah, I'd say this has gone pretty well, considering we got off to a rocky start. We couldn't have asked for a better ending. Lois: Get your wife out of my sight! Francis: [whispers to Piama] She called you my wife, that's progress.
