Manny Quote #256

Quote from Manny in Career Day

Jay: Enough chitchat. I've gotta get a character out of a bind.
Manny: Ooh. What did he do?
Jay: He told his wife he could write a book.
Manny: Don't give up, Jay. Self-doubt is part of the process. You can't be a good writer without being critical of your own work. [reading Jay's work] ... Huh.
Jay: What?
Manny: I'm racking my brain for a compliment here.

Quote from Lily

Mitchell: Oh, let's see here. Uh, yeah. Oh, the Tooth Fairy. "1 Tooth Fairy Lane. Tooth City, Tooth Dakota."
Lily: I hope it's another $100.
Cameron: Ooh! Well, lookie there. Glitter!
Mitchell: I guess the tooth fairy doesn't have to worry about vacuuming.
Cameron: See, "Dear Lily, I'm writing because I made a mistake and gave you too much money. Please leave the $100 under your pillow tonight, and I'll give you a dollar. Sorry if that bites."

Quote from Cameron

Mitchell: [aside to camera] Lily lost her first tooth today. And she's very excited about a visit from the tooth fairy.
Cameron: When I had my first loose tooth, my mama tied one end of the string to it, and the other to the tail of a Guernsey cow, fired off a 12-gauge shotgun, and the cow went running out of the room.
Mitchell: That never happened.
Cameron: Tell that to the cow-shaped hole in my bedroom wall.
