Otto Quote #28
Quote from Otto in Garage Sale
Francis: Gretchen is freaking out. The guests are leaving in droves. And Muffy wants her stall back. You have to stop this.
Otto: There is nothing to stop, because there's nothing wrong. Now go away.
Francis: Look, if there's one thing I'm an expert at, it's pointless family conflict. And if Rutger is anything like me, you're going to have to make the first move. That means you're going to have to deal with your feelings.
Otto: I can't. [cries]
Francis: I know you can't. That's why I want you to do something for me.
Otto: Hmm?
Francis: Look at your wedding ring.
Otto: Hmm? [Francis puts a sock puppet on Otto's hand] Oh. Schlupi?
Francis: Yes, Schlupi. I think it's about time he weighed in on all this.
Otto: I guess I was a little disappointed when Rutger wouldn't come. And then when the letters came, it was so painful. I couldn't bear it. I love him so much, Francis. And I swore that I would never do that to my son, and now look! [crying] Rutger is such a wonderful boy. He's so sensitive. He's-he's so bright...
Francis: I'm going to get Schlupi a phone.

Quote from Craig
Craig: I'm cooperating! I never met this man before. I hate the Constitution. I hate free speech. I'll snitch. I know things!
Quote from Craig
Craig: This better be good. There'll be hell to pay if Jellybean wakes up from her massage and doesn't see me on the table next to her. [gasps] Oh, my God! Is that a Nortair?
Malcolm: It's a Nortair 680b. It's, like, the first personal computer ever made. You have an interest in this type of stuff, don't you?
Craig: There aren't many of these left. I'll give you five bucks for it.
Malcolm: Yeah, right. I checked online. This is in mint condition. It's worth at least $1,300.
Craig: Deal. No take-backs, double black magic, tap it, bomb it, flush it down the toilet. You understand it's going to take me a couple days to get the money.
Malcolm: That's exactly what I want. I want you to buy it this Saturday at our garage sale. In front of everybody. With cash. You're going to react in horror when I tell you Reese was going to throw this in the trash. And then you're going to tell everyone they should have listened to me all along.
Craig: You know, right now you're sounding a lot like a James Bond villain.
Malcolm: Me? There's nothing wrong with me. I'm fine. And right. And right! And on Saturday, everyone's going to know it.
Craig: Okay, but these revenge plans have a way of backfiring. Word to the wise, if you ever make someone an Ex-Lax milkshake, don't do it on an empty stomach.
Quote from Hal
Hal: [on radio] There are so many things the government doesn't want you to know, and that's why they don't want Kid Charlemagne on this mic. Do I love my country? Yes. Do I vote? I used to, until they moved our polling place to the house with the big dog.
Lois: [o.s.] Hal! I said dinner!
Hal: [on tape] Kid Charlemagne is back on the air.
