Phil Quote #609
Quote from Phil in The Last Walt
Claire: How weird was that?
Phil: I know. Crazy weird.
Claire: It's like he had no feelings at all.
Phil: I'm more worried about the one you showed. What's with all the smiling?
Claire: What are you talking about?
Phil: That grin. "Walt's dead." You looked like the joker.
Claire: I didn't smile.
Phil: You did. It's like a weird coping mechanism. You did the same thing when you told him his hamster died.

‘The Last Walt’ Quotes
Quote from Phil
Claire: [aside to camera] Walt, our elderly next door neighbor, died. He and Luke were pretty close, so we have to tell him. I'm a little nervous about it.
Phil: I think we should break it to him slowly.
Claire: Like how?
Phil: Well, first we'd say, "Luke, your friend Walt has a cold. You shouldn't go over there." Next day, "Bad news. Walt's in the hospital, but he's still cracking jokes with the nurses." Next day, "They're trying an experimental drug. Fingers crossed." Next day, "His body rebelled. He's in a coma." Next day, he rallies. Next day, coma. Next day, coma. Next day, coma. Next day, eye flutter.
Claire: Stop. Just stop. Stop.
Quote from Phil
Claire: Oh. Oh, Luke, we have some bad news for you. It's about Walt. I'm afraid he passed away.
Phil: Um, it happened yesterday. He finished writing an angry letter to the postmaster general, and he just fell asleep.
Luke: Okay.
Phil: It was very peaceful. Not the letter. That was full of threats, but...
Quote from Cameron
Mitchell: Oh, I missed a call from my dad.
Cameron: Oh, let me guess. Is he calling to cancel? What's his excuse this time?
Mitchell: You know, that's a really mean thing to assume, Cam. I really wish you'd give my dad a break for once.
Cameron: Oh, please. You know Jay doesn't like my dad. He thinks he's some bumpkin from the sticks. Well, I will have you know that Merle Stonewall Tucker is one of the most respected farmers in all of Hell's Hollow, Missouri.
Mitchell: Okay, you're not hearing yourself.
