Adam Quote #1239
Quote from Adam in Couple Off
Adult Adam: [v.o.] On the heels of my first shift at the local creamery, I was ready to relate to my working-stiff friends.
Adam: Mind if I sit? My dogs are barking. Long shift at the ol' factory. You know, like a character in a Bruce Springsteen song.
Brian: Don't you just put gummy bears on soft serve?
Adam: Sometimes. But payday can't come soon enough, amirite? [chuckles] Management's the worst, amirite? [chuckles] Minimum wage is a maximum bummer, amirite?
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Turns out my blue collar was not a good color on me.
Adam: I don't get it. First you said we couldn't relate because I didn't have a job, but now I have one and that's still not right.
Brea: That's because you're acting like working is just some big joke. Where'd you even get that mechanic's shirt?
Adam: This is from when I portrayed Louis DiMucci in Grease 2. The school paper called my performance "vaguely offensive."
Brea: See what I mean? Working to you is putting on a costume and pretending to be someone you're not. I need my paycheck. You clearly don't.

Quote from Pops
Pops: There he is. Everything work out with Brea, kiddo?
Adam: Yep. Brea's wrong. We're not well-off.
Beverly: Of course we're not.
Adam: Sure, we're fortunate-ish, but remember when we didn't have premium cable for a little while?
Beverly: No HBO. Yes. Tell Brea that.
Pops: How about instead of trying to convince Brea that you're not spoiled, why don't you show her by getting a [bleep] job?
Adam: Suggestive language.
Quote from Adam
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Back in the '80s, one of the best music videos on MTV was "Take On Me". It combined cutting-edge technology and animation that blew my mind. So, obviously, I decided I had to make my own.
Beverly: [on paper] Hi, Adam. Look at me. I'm lines.
Adam: I said no talking.
Beverly: Join me in this comic book world. [dances] Look. The Cabbage Patch. The Running Man. The Roger Rabbit.
Adam: Stop. I have to trace all this.
Beverly: I'm a person! I'm a cartoon. I'm a person. I'm a cartoon. I make life better.
Adam: Oh, no! It's the bad guys who are dressed like French Grand Prix racecar drivers for some reason!
Pops: A-Am I doing this right? I still don't understand why we have to be animated.
Adam: No, I do the animation after. It's called rotoscoping.
Pops: Does it hurt?
Adam: Um, that's a wrap on Pops.
Pops: Oh, boy.
Beverly: [on paper] Poopie! Poopie, I'm still stuck in here. But I'll get out. [crashing sounds] Yay! I made it to your world, and now we can be together forever! [sings to the tune of Take On Me] ♪ Nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom ♪ ♪ Nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom ♪ ♪ Nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom ♪
Quote from Adam
Brea: Wow.
Adam: I know, right? I'm sorry I didn't use you for the video, but my mom financed it and demanded the lead and an associate producer credit.
Brea: How long did it take?
Adam: Weeks. But that's mostly because I broke the first rotoscoping equipment when I opened the box too excitedly.
Brea: Do you ever notice how different our lives are?
Adam: Oh, no. You're finally realizing you're a total smoke show and this is as tall as I'll ever be.
Brea: I enjoy your compact frame. I'm just saying you live a charmed life.
Adam: That's ridiculous. My life is extremely challenging.
Beverly: Lunch is served. A feast for my boy king.
Adam: Not great timing, Mom.
