Quote from Moira in The Throuple
Moira: I'm so glad we're doing this. Alexis: Me too! Moira: When your father comes over, just act like everything's normal. Alexis: Is there something not normal about us being here? Moira: It's not normal for your father to be waiting tables at a rural sandwich counter. Alexis: Eww! What's happening? Moira: He thinks he's working. Just play along.
