‘Mom Trumps Willow’

Season 6, Episode 22 -  Aired May 1, 2019

Adam crosses a line as he tries to get out of spending Mother's Day with Beverly so he can see the new George Lucas film. Meanwhile, Barry's joy at getting into Penn State is short-lived when Erica announces she'll be going there too.

Quote from Erica

Erica: [congested] Happy Mother's Day. Sorry, but so much sinus pressure.
Beverly: Oh, no! Your cold got worse.
Adam: Aw, come on! She's clearly faking!
Beverly: Shame on you, Adam! For the past week, I have been closely monitoring Erica's cough, sniffles, sore throat, sour tummy, and uncontrollable eye twitch.
Erica: See? It does it on its own 'cause it's real.

Quote from Erica

Erica: And that's how you get out of honoring your mother. That's right. For weeks, I've been planting seeds of worry. A tiny cough here, a body ache there, every day a calculated move leading to this very moment.
Adam: Bastard genius!

Quote from Barry

Barry: Boom! Barry did it! Barry got in! Everyone wants Barry!
Murray: Whoo-hoo! That makes three colleges!
Barry: But this is the one, baby! Best pre-med program on the East Coast.
Murray: The best!
Barry: Screw you, garbage safety schools Ithaca and Bucknell.
Murray: [chuckles] You're garbage. We don't need you now.

Quote from Geoff

Murray: Peanut, you did it!
Barry: How is this even happening?
Erica: Well, it was a hard year, and once my band was causing me more stress than joy, Geoff made me realize that I really needed some direction.
Geoff: All I did was get her transcripts, fill out the applications, and then cash in my Bar Mitzvah bonds to cover the fees.
Murray: I always liked this kid.

Quote from Beverly

Adam: So, that's the end of that? We good?
Beverly: We're great. Just look at all the stuff our faces are on! Mugs, keychain, welcome mat, blankie, car seat cover, baby bib, beach towel!
Adam: Why would I want a towel of us?
Beverly: Uh, so when you're at the beach or getting out of the shower, you can remember who loves you most?
Adam: And here I thought it was weird.

Quote from Beverly

Adam: Doesn't matter, I'm off to go see "Willow." Ta!
Beverly: No "ta"! I made us reservations for brunch and Flamenco lessons and a couple's foot soak.
Adam: While that all sounds fun and also gross, you promised I could go see "Willow."
Beverly: I didn't promise "Willow." You want "Willow," but I think we both know there will be no "Willows" of any kind today.
Adam: You don't understand. "Willow" is the most important movie in a generation.
Beverly: And I'm the most important mom in a generation! Mom trumps "Willow."

Quote from Adam

Adam: Mornin', Sunshine.
Pops: Morning?
Adam: Looks like Mom's still mad and didn't make breakfast. But joke's on her 'cause we got Nintendo Cereal System!
Pops: Kiddo? Aren't you supposed to be at school?
Adam: Nah, it's only 11:30?! Balls! Nobody woke me up!
Pops: Well, don't you have an alarm clock?
Adam: I don't need one 'cause Mom always... Oh.

Quote from Adam

Dave Kim: Dude, you missed our English lit presentation.
Adam: I overslept 'cause my mom didn't wake me.
Dave Kim: Don't you have an alarm clock?
Adam: Why does everyone keep harping on this clock thing? You don't need one when you have a loving mother!

Quote from Adam

Carla: Hey, babe.
Adam: Ugh. It's still weird that you two are a thing.
Carla: Hells yeah we are. [Dave and Carla kiss] Um, your friend is totally watching us.
Adam: No! I turned my head. My lazy eye is still on you.
Carla: You're a freaky little guy, huh?
Adam: I'm just gonna walk away entirely.

Quote from Barry

Barry: I will not leave until you hear my airtight presentation of why I should be the one who goes to Penn.
Erica: Really, dude?
Barry: Geoffrey, wheel in the presentation cart.
Murray: Don't need a presentation. You both can go to the damn college.
Erica: Just let the dumbass do his thing and then he'll go away.
Barry: This will only take 80 minutes of your time. It includes a speech, slideshow, rap interlude, Q&A, intermission with kosher salami, followed by an elegant closing ceremony, and surprise T-shirt giveaway.
Geoff: They're all men's mediums.
