Quote from Barry
Barry: But beating you up is our thing.
Adam: How is violence upon me our thing?
Barry: That's how we bond. What else am I supposed to do? Give you a hug?
Adam: Yes! A hug would be nice. A hug would feel good on my body.
Barry: Nipple cripples are my way of showing you love, okay. It's how I hug you, but after this I'm never beating you up again.
Adam: Oh, you don't mean that. Give me a nipple cripple.
Barry: No. You'll never feel the painful sting of my touch again. Now leave my room quietly and safely. And please watch your fingers.
Quote from Adam
Adam: But you need to know how I feel about you. You're the gift. I could have ended up with any brother in the world, but mine is loud and tough and emotionally unstable. But I wouldn't have it any other way.
Quote from Beverly
Erica: Read it. It's everything you need to know about the election.
Beverly: Or, I could do something meaningful and bake my special Double Marshmallow Fudgie-nut Butterscotch bars.
Quote from Beverly
Beverly: Hi, popular football player. I'm a local tough who slings dope cigarettes outside this very high school. Would you like drugs.
Murray: What will I do? My teenage mind is soft and easily persuaded by peer pressure and the need to fit in.
Quote from Beverly
Beverly: Be cool, homey. I've got booger sugar, goof balls, poppers, uppers, downers, lewds, whammer, and jammers. What do you say, impressionable teenager, let's chase the dragon?
Murray: No. I just say no to drugs.
Beverly: End scene. Vote Reagan everyone.
