Claire Quote #565
Quote from Claire in I Don't Know How She Does It
Claire: You churned ice cream?
Ben: Yeah. Did the kids like it?
Claire: They loved it.
Ben: Great.
Claire: But they know I can't make ice cream. I bought that churn out of a SkyMall catalog after three Bloody Marys. It's been sitting under a tarp in my garage for six years. You've got to dial it way back.
Ben: Where is this fear and anger coming from?
Claire: You're gonna get us caught! [closes blinds]
Ben: You knew the risks when we started this.
Claire: I'm just saying we're getting a little bit sloppy. All the impossible errands, the fancy sandwiches. Just slap a little tuna on whole wheat for the next couple of days. Just until things cool off. [sighs] All right?
Ben: I was just trying to make you happy. You're not gonna stop me, are you?
Claire: Coffee cart's only in the lobby until 4:00.

Quote from Jay
Jay: [to Joey] You didn't make enough noise last night? With all his crying, I didn't sleep four hours.
Gloria: I didn't close my eyes. It was like being back in my village, watching for the marauders.
Jay: I don't know what's more shocking - you standing watch, or knowing the word "marauders."
Manny: Please tell me I didn't sob all night just 'cause I lost my baby blanket.
Gloria: Shh! Don't remind him. He's happy now. And besides, you didn't even have a blanket. We were basically destitute.
Jay: What, did you get hit by lightning?
Quote from Phil
Phil: Hey, you know what? I could do some of that kid stuff tomorrow.
Claire: You've got that open house.
Phil: Honey, I've been juggling work and family for 22 years and just juggling for 30.
Quote from Phil
Phil: [aside to camera] Until now, when I'd screw up on the home front, I could always blame work, but with Claire running a company and being a better mom than ever, I could feel the kids downgrading their whole opinion of me. I went from an "A" dad to an "F" dad. Fail Dunphy. Phil Dun-fail. Failip Hum-fail Dun- No, I had it before.
