Adam Quote #850
Quote from Adam in Geoff the Pleaser
Adult Adam: [v.o.] While the JTP was finally getting some help, the AV Club was about to get some very exciting news.
Coach Nick: Listen up, AV scrubs. Every club has to have a faculty advisor. Due to me losing 12 consecutive rounds of rock-paper-scissors, I'm yours. Anyway, as I tend to see things through a sports lens, I've decided that we're gonna have a school-wide movie championship.
Adam: You mean like a film festival? I've been begging for one for years.
Johnny: Count Johnny Atkins in.
Emmy: Johnny Atkins? Since when are you in the AV Club?
Johnny: Since they found asbestos in the detention room. Heh! [coughs]
Adam: Question, Coach Advisor. Is there a format restriction? 8 millimeter? 16 millimeter? Super 8? Super 16?
Coach Nick: Super annoying question! Make a movie!
Adam: Dealer's choice on the format. Nice.
Coach Nick: Just know I like movies about sports, war, and lost dogs finding their way home.

Quote from Murray
Geoff: So brilliant! So, what's P?
Murray: It's the thing I'm most proud of. Pants.
Geoff: Pants?
Murray: Why do you think I come in the house and take off my pants?
Geoff: I assumed it had to do with comfort and generally just giving up.
Murray: Yes, but also, who's the least likely person to be asked to do anything?
Geoff: Oh, my God. The guy with no pants.
Pops: Hey, Mur, could you give me a ride to the pharmacy... Oh, he's not even wearing pants. I'll bus it.
Geoff: My God. You have given me such a gift!
Murray: It's my life's work. Don't waste it. Get out there and do as little as you can.
Geoff: I'm gonna do nothing and make you proud.
Quote from Murray
Murray: Okay, first up is L. Lower expectations. It's something I've perfected over time.
Adam: Dad, can you quiz me with these science flash cards? Ah, who am I kidding? In all my years, you've never shown interest in my education.
Geoff: He thinks you're a worthless dad.
Murray: That took a lot of not doing. Next up is U. When there's no way out of something, underwhelm.
Beverly: This is how you wash a dish? Okay, no more washing dishes for you!
Geoff: You did a horrible job, and now she'll never ask you again.
Murray: I'm the worst. Next up is M, which stands for "mumble" and "moron."
Erica: Hey, Dad, can you show me how to change the oil in my car?
Murray: [mumbling]
Erica: What does that even mean?
Murray: Leave me alone, ya moron!

Murray: Well, you're not pleasing me right now.

Murray: It's easy. Lump.
Geoff: As in just sit there and never move?

Geoff: You're a lazy monster, and that's what I need. Please, let me learn at your idle feet.
