Beverly Quote #1127
Quote from Beverly in Geoff the Pleaser
Beverly: Actually... I have one more entrant.
Adam: Oh, no! No way! You've done enough!
Coach Nick: Sorry, clock ran out. That's what next season's for.
Beverly: Oh, I don't care. The dumb festival can be over. This is just for my son. May I?
Coach Nick: Do what you gotta do.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] In that moment, my mom did something I never could have imagined. She gave me a highlight reel of every movie I'd ever made. Maybe they weren't all award-winners, but thanks to her, I realized making movies wasn't about succeeding in Hollywood. It was about creating something special with the people I loved. And if I could do that for the rest of my life, I'd be living the dream.
Adam: This is amazing.
Beverly: It's all you. Schmoo, I'm sorry I shielded you from the truth. These movies remind me that you are joyful and creative and one of a kind. And if you never give up... ...I just know you're gonna make it.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Just then, I realized there are worse things in the world than someone who thinks you're the best.

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.
