Phil Quote #91

Quote from Phil in Undeck the Halls

Phil: Honey? Hmm? Would it really be so bad to back down?
Claire: And have the kids never take any of our threats seriously again?
Phil: Yeah. Mmm. Or the kids could realize that we're making a supreme sacrifice by giving up our power to save their Christmas.
Claire: Which would, in a way, be the greatest gift that we could ever give them.
Phil: And which would paradoxically make them respect us even more. [Claire groans] Okay, forget that. Go back one.
