Eric: Dad, I'm really not in the mood for conversation.
Red: Good. Then I'll talk and you listen. I ever tell you the story about Larry "No Foot" Mulligan?
Eric: Well, I can guess. He had no foot?
Red: Larry was a buddy of mine who lost his foot during the war. And then, on his way back to the States, old One Foot - at that point we were calling him One Foot - had his ship go down and a shark ate his other foot. But he made it all the way back home. And do you know what happened to him when he got here?
Eric: He overcame his handicap and, ironically, became a shoe salesman?
Red: No. His girlfriend dumped him.
Eric: Well, thank God it had a happy ending.
Red: Look, the point of the story is, you've got both feet. You'll be fine. Now, put some shoes on, go on down and trim the hedges.
Eric: Yeah. Well, you know, I think I'm just gonna stay up here.
Red: Yeah. Well, you know, I think you're not.
