Quote from Phil in Pilot
Claire: All right, that's not gonna happen, and, wow, you're not wearing that outfit. Haley: What's wrong with it? Claire: Honey, do you have anything to say to your daughter about her skirt? Phil: Sorry? Oh yeah, that looks really cute, sweetheart! Haley: Thanks! Claire: No, it's way too short. People know you're a girl, you don't need to prove it to them.
