Quote from Piama in Hal's Birthday
Piama: You know, Francis isn't the screw-up you think he is. Lois: Really? Piama: Did you know he works sixteen hours a day at his job and he still managed to build a wheelchair ramp for my uncle Jake? In fact- Lois: I don't think we should talk about Francis. Piama: Why not? He's my husband and your son. Lois: Needless to say, he and I have a very long and complicated history together that I don't feel like explaining to you. Piama: Admit it, you don't like me. Lois: I don't even know you. Piama: Well, what would you like to know? I'm nineteen, my mom ran off when I was three and my dad kicked me out of the house when I was fourteen because I threw out his liquor. I've been married once before, no kids, thank God, and last year I spent three weeks in jail, but it wasn't my fault.
