Frank Quote #40

Quote from Frank in Frank's Wedding

Frank: Well, look, it's Pretty Boy Dunphy.
Phil: Looking good yourself, Pops. How, uh... how you doing?
Frank: Well, I got my rings, got my vows. Now all I need is a way to escape. Please, someone help. [laughs] I'm kidding, of course. Actually, I'm really looking forward to being married.
Phil: Then- Then what's with the getaway bag?
Frank: Oh, I got to ask you to help me out with what I think is a doozy of a surprise. Come here. Get this. Mid-ceremony, you know, when you ask if anyone has any objections?
Phil: Yeah?
Frank: I'm gonna pull out a Tommy gun and tell you to skip that part.
Phil: Sweet maple syrup. I like it.
Frank: I'm just getting warmed up. I got a script, prop guns, exploding paint capsules. I even hired a few of the local theater people to help out.
Phil: And, uh, and Lorraine's cool with all this?
Frank: That's the beauty part. She doesn't know a thing about it 80% of comedy is surprise. The other 20% is wordplay.

Quote from Phil in The Musical Man

Alex: Dad, your phone's been buzzing like crazy.
Phil: Sweet Lorna Doone. Nineteen missed calls? I wonder who's... [answering phone] Phil Dunphy. You saw the ad? Great. Do you know what you're looking for? The little one. I think I know which one you're talking about. Um, if you're interested, I also have an older model with a lot of character. What? I think the carpet matches the drapes. I haven't checked in a while. Both of them? Wow. Well, I guess that makes sense if you're planning to flip one. Listen, um, why don't I call you back? We'll set up an appointment. It will give me a chance to give them both a good scrubbing. All right. Thanks a lot. Bye-bye.

Quote from Phil in Phil on Wire

Quote from Joe

Manny: I guess I can go out on the roof and check for monster slobber.
Joe: Okay.
Gloria: No! If he falls from the roof and dies, his ghost will haunt you forever.
Joe: Oh, boy. I do not need a ghost.

Quote from Frank

Frank: Maybe I do overdo it. I remember your mother was really ticked off at me at your baptism when I kept pretending the holy water was boiling. [Phil laughs] Ouch! Ouch! Okay, we don't have to do anything crazy today. Don't worry about it.
Phil: Thanks, Pops.
Frank: But, wait, you're still gonna do my funeral the way we talked about, right?
Phil: That recording of you banging on that piece of wood screaming, "Let me out of here!"
Frank: [laughs] It's a real shame I'm gonna miss that.

Quote from Jay

Jay: [aside to camera] I'm turning 70 next year. I know, I look great. One of the few perks of getting up there is the ability to say no without guilt. "Can I have a ride to the airport?" No. Do I want to see your niece's recital? Nuh-unh. "Want to do a walk-a-thon to end global..." I'm gonna stop you right there.
