Pops Quote #401
Adult Adam: [v.o.] It was January 27, 1980-something, and I was devouring the sci-fi classic Cocoon, the totally believable story of nursing-home residents who are reinvigorated by an alien fountain of youth. Good thing my Pops didn't need that. Or so I thought.
Pops: Well, that was confusing. You wanna hit the deli, get a cheese blintz, and sort out what happened?
Adam: What happened is you slept through one of the greatest movies ever.
Pops: Is it my fault it's dark and smells like butter?
Adam: You brought a pillow.
Pops: I shoulda brought a blanket, too. It's colder than a toilet seat at midnight in there.
Adam: As fun as it is to think about your moonlit bathroom adventures, you need to see it again.
Pops: I saw enough.
Adam: Doesn't matter. All the elderly friskiness has given me an idea. Let's dance our way home while checking out ladies that are age-inappropriate for both of us.
Pops: Better idea. I go home and sleep off this movie nap.

Quote from Pops
Adam: I can't believe you did that for me.
Pops: It wasn't just for you, kiddo. As much as you miss the young Pops, I miss him, too.
Adam: Just so you know, I'm okay with just sorting coins. As long as I can be with you.
Pops: That's good. Because I'm not gonna be doing much moving for a while.
Adam: Do you remember the end of Cocoon, when all the older people leave Earth to go to that planet where they can be young forever? Would you take that deal?
Pops: And miss hanging with my best friend? Not a chance.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Thanks to Pops, I picked up a thing or two over the years. Eventually, we all slow down. But it doesn't matter if you're growing older or growing up. The important thing is to appreciate the victories. In the end, every moment is worth savoring. And no matter what stage of life you're in, a fountain of youth will never be as magical as time spent with the ones you love.
Quote from Barry
Adam: Hey, guys! I'm just here to return... Oh, my God! What happened to your skin?
Barry: It's gorgeous, right?
Andy: Ha!
Barry: As pro body builders now, it's important to enhance our jacked musculature with a beautiful bronze hue.
Adam: That is not bronze.
Andy: That's because we went to the roof without any sunscreen. We're beet red now, but it should settle into a lovely mahogany.
Naked Rob: It's so worth it.
Matt: You have third-degree burns.
Barry: You're just jealous 'cause your skin isn't this glorious chestnut. Now, watch my bi's and tri's dance as I bring a little body oil to the party. Ow!
Adam: I'll get the aloe vera.
Quote from Beverly
Adult Adam: [v.o.] While Pops turned back the clock, it was time for my mom to face off with her publisher.
Pamela: Good afternoon, I'm Pamela Reingold, and I'll be your mediator today.
Beverly: It is an honor, Your Honor. May I approach the bench?
Pamela: I'm not a judge, and this is a conference table.
Beverly: Still, I'd like to file a motion to dismiss.
Erica: Dismiss what? You're the one that wanted this.
Beverly: Well, then, tell me what to say, because the only legal jargon I know is from TV and movies.
Erica: Me, too.
Beverly: Your Honor, on the advice of my counsel, uh, the jury should disregard my testimony.
Pamela: There's also no jury. It's just you, me, this lady, and that man.
