Cameron Quote #1094
Quote from Cameron in Ten Years Later
Cameron: Your family has been entranced by my performances many times. I don't need this, but over the last 10 years, I've watch you shrink in their presence. And you love to sing. I like it fine. And when we go out, you're the first person to grab the karaoke mic and scat the night away, and you're good at it. You know what people are calling you? "Fella Fitzgerald."
Mitchell: They do not!
Cameron: Yes, they do. And just once, I would love to watch your talent soar in front of your family and shut them up for good. But if you don't want to
Mitchell: You know what? Screw it. I don't even care that I'm mostly sure you're manipulating me right now.

Quote from Claire
Claire: [aside to camera] I'm throwing Dad and Gloria's 10th anniversary party, and Phil is part of the entertainment.
Phil: I'm gonna make Gloria seemingly dematerialize, then wondrously travel back through time, and then rematerialized in her wedding dress.
Claire: She's gonna change her clothes in a box.
Phil: This is why I'm nervous about you introducing me.
Claire: I'm kidding! You're gonna be great.
[separately to camera:]
Claire: He better be great. I want Dad and Gloria's party to be perfect. I was kind of a pill at their wedding. I hadn't fully accepted Gloria yet. And I feel a little responsible for what happened with my mom. I fed her, like, three drinks at the reception. You know, just to take the edge off. She almost took the doorframe off.
Quote from Jay
Jay: Morning, beautiful. We have huevos, we have chorizo, we have tortilla. What we ain't got is Manny. Unfortunately, he's gonna be a no-show at the party today.
Joe: Aha.
Jay: What can I get you?
Gloria: Take that garbage away from me. I'm going for a walk.
[aside to camera:]
Jay: Manny was a big part of our wedding. He walked Gloria down the aisle, did the calligraphy. And I knew him not showing up to our anniversary party would put Gloria in a bad mood. In some ways, I feel responsible.
Quote from Mitchell
Mitchell: So, uh, what's all this?
Cameron: This is redemption.
Mitchell: Maybe just a straight answer.
Cameron: The year was 2007. The wedding reception of Jay and Gloria. Our gift to the newlyweds was a duet performance of "Islands in the Stream."
Mitchell: "Islands in the Stream."
Cameron: A gift that would never be, because...
Mitchell: I remember.
[aside to camera:]
Mitchell: I fed my mom a few drinks at the reception. I really did not want to sing, so I figured if I got her a little tipsy, I wouldn't have to perform because I'd have to hold her hand... And later hold her hair back.
