Red Quote #95

Quote from Red in Grandma's Dead

Eric: Hey, Dad, nice trains.
Red: Yeah. You know, I can't believe that your grandma held on to them all these years. I thought she'd thrown them away.
Eric: Yeah, she was a good egg, Grandma.
Red: Yes, she was. You know, when I was a little boy, I hated peaches and Mom knew that. So whenever she made a peach pie, she'd make a little blueberry pie. Special, just for me. You know, she was the first one to call me Red. And the last time I saw her, I didn't... I didn't say, I love you. I didn't even say good bye. I said, "Show me the tail lights."
Eric: Dad, um, the last thing I said to her was: "It wouldn't kill you to be nice." But I think it did, because she died.
Red: [laughs] That could only happen to you, son. [chuckles] It's okay.
Eric: I know.
[Kitty enters with a depressed look across her face]
Red: What's the matter, Kitty?
Kitty: I'm all out of eggs... and flour. [sobs]
Red: Come here. Eric.
Laurie: [comes downstairs] Hey, do you think these diamonds are real? Oh, family moment. I'll leave you three alone.

Quote from Hyde

Eric: Donna, we don't talk about things in the Forman family. It's not like your house, where every time you have a "feeling", your dad gives you a big hug and a gold star.

Eric: Well, I don't- Talking isn't gonna help me, okay? What's gonna help me is, like, drinking.
Donna: Well, now you're just being stupid.
Hyde: [enters] Hey, Forman, let's go get wasted.
Donna: Great.
Eric: See? Hyde's a real friend. He's gonna help me get through my grandma's death.

Quote from Red

Kitty: Oh, here, Bernice, I made you a plate of leftovers.

Red: Show me tail lights.
