Quote from Jay in Truth Be Told
Jay: I was hanging up the new poster and it fell on top of him. It was an accident. Gloria: You have to tell him. Jay: No. I've been through this before. When Mitchell was nine, I was supposed to take care of his bird. It got out and flew into a fan. It was like a bloody pillow fight. Gloria: My God. How many pets have you killed? Jay: Just the two. I took the heat on the bird. It was a big mistake. To this day, Mitchell looks at me, I see him thinking, "That's the guy who killed Fliza Minnelli."
