Abe Quote #22

Quote from Abe in Goodbye Kitty

Abe: Kitty isn't on a business trip. She divorced me two months ago. She's never coming home.

Stevie: Even if... his best friend... needs to win... for his mother?

Malcolm: I know she's been gone a long time, Stevie, but it just doesn't feel right to me.
Stevie: I've always... been there... for you.
Malcolm: Please don't do this to me.
Stevie: Seventh grade... first dance... open fly.
Malcolm: All right, fine. But I'm sick and tired of you throwing that in my face all the time.
Stevie: Save it... for the game.
