Geoff Quote #452
Quote from Geoff in A Flyer's Path to Victory
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Lou and Linda were trying to psych themselves up for another day with Muriel, but it wasn't going great.
Linda Schwartz: Okay, we have been doing nothing with the baby for a while.
Lou Schwartz: The ice is doing bupkus for my swollen feet.
Linda Schwartz: I think that that's just how they are, sweetie.
Lou Schwartz: I don't need judgment. And what are you drinking?
Linda Schwartz: This is a sports-themed beverage. It's going to give me Michael Jordan's ability to not die while pushing a stroller.
Lou Schwartz: Let me sample this neon juice. [chuckles] [smacks lips] Dammit, that's nice on the tongue.
Linda Schwartz: I drank three of these yellow boys, and I just want to lay on the floor.
Lou Schwartz: But we promised the kids we'd take the baby apple picking.
Linda Schwartz: If only there were some magical shortcut that didn't involve our limbs.
Lou Schwartz: Why schlep all over Philadelphia when all we need is the evidence that we did? Grab an apple, hold the baby in front of the ficus. And boom, we're apple picking!
Linda Schwartz: Brilliant! But how are we going to pretend that we went to the pool at the JCC?
Lou Schwartz: Fill the damn tub, Linda. Why do I have to be both the brains and the brawn?

Quote from Barry
Barry: Now, we come to Adam. Sweet, precious Adam. No water! [cup clatters]
Adam: That was your water.
Barry: It was for dramatic effect. You will not allow nature's tears to touch your lips for the entirety of the Flyers playoff run.
Adam: And why, exactly?
Barry: Last Tuesday, you took a sip and Rick Tocchet got a two-minute penalty for slashing. You were also breathing, but I'm not unreasonable.
Adam: I'm definitely gonna drink water.
Barry: Thought you might say that. [hands Adam a Polaroid]
Adam: Is this you holding up a knife to Optimus Prime?
Barry: And you'll never see him again unless you do what I say.
Adam: It's like five bucks. I'll get a new one.
Barry: Well, can you replace all your Transformers? [holds up multiple Polaroids]
Adam: My babies! Fine! I'll drink soda all day, every day! Ya happy?!
Quote from Barry
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Back in the '80s, nothing was more important to my brother than Flyers hockey. When they made it to the Stanley Cup Finals, he knew exactly who to thank... himself.
Barry: Because of my hard work and unwavering dedication to the Flyers, they are now on the precipice of becoming world champions.
Pop-Pop: Your hard work?
Barry: Who else has suited up for every game in their quasi-officially sanctioned T-shirt, stretched, ready to go, with two orange popsicles in a bowl, always to the side?
Adam: I've seen this in sports films. Superstitious nutballs think they somehow control the outcome of the game, so they repeat the behavior in hopes of another win.
Barry: Well, in my very special case, it works.
Adam: No one believes that.
Beverly: Yes, my baby helped the Flyers win. I'm as proud as the mothers of the players I will be sitting with during the victory parade.
Quote from Beverly
Barry: In addition to all I will do to help the Flyers win, here's what you will do. Since the beginning of the season, I've been tracking all your behaviors during games to see if they help or hurt the Flyers.
Adam: You've been watching us?
Beverly: I watch you all, too. It's not weird. Go on, Barry.
Barry: Mom, let's start with you.
Beverly: Ah, I'm number one on your list and in your heart.
Barry: For the last seven victories, you served us food that was black and/or orange.
Beverly: The colors of your team.
Adam: And construction signs and monarch butterflies and Garfield. It's all random nonsense.
Barry: Thus, everything we consume from here-to-forth must be black or orange.
Beverly: For my superstitious Schmoo, I'll make it happen. Oh! I'm part of his life. Ha!
