Adam Quote #1310

Quote from Adam in The Goldbergs' Excellent Adventure

Adult Adam: [v.o.] [Alphaville's "Forever Young" plays] And so, somehow, even though our quest wasn't real, we still found a way to complete it.
Murray: It really was a tree after all.
Adam: Not just any tree. This is where Pops proposed to Grandma. That's why it was his favorite place.
Beverly: He said that everything that was beautiful in his life took root and blossomed right here. His marriage, his family, his friends.
Shorty: Ah, what a mensch.
Erica: I think I know where I want to get married. Right here.
Geoff: It's perfect.
Beverly: Before we spread the ashes, uh, Adam would like to say a few words.
Adam: As you know, Pops and I were making a movie that we're just not gonna get to finish. But there's something in Bill & Ted's that sums up how Pops lived his life and how he'd want us to live ours. It's a little goofy, but here it goes. "Be excellent to each other, and party on."

Quote from Barry

Beverly: [gasps] It's from my father's attorney.
Bill Lewis: Attorney, you say?
Erica: It's postmarked for almost two months ago.
Barry: My real inheritance! Pops gave me that dumb pen so I can endorse the $10,000, gold certificate that clearly fits inside this!
Murray: Ah, give it to me. Moron. "Dear Goldberg Family, this letter is to inform you that it was Albert Solomon's final wish "that you join together in spreading his ashes in his favorite place."
Barry: That's it? Check the back for a treasure map or a deed to a silver mine.
Murray: Nothin'.

Quote from Beverly

Beverly: The truth is, your grandfather was very proud to have served, but the French people he found to be filthy [bleep].

Quote from Murray

Beverly: Of course it's fake! Horses don't hold gavels! Murray, how could you?
Murray: I'm sorry. It's just that everyone's having such a hard time.
Beverly: It's supposed to be hard. We lost somebody we love.
Murray: But no one's dealing with it. Y-Y-You're suddenly calling yourself an orphan and you won't go out with your friends. And Erica hates every wedding venue because they're all missing the same thing. Her grandfather.
Geoff: Is that true?
Murray: And Barry hates that pen because it makes him think that Pops was disappointed in him somehow. And this one's carrying around a doll and calling it Pops so he can pretend he never died at all.
Beverly: [voice breaking] Fine. We're not handling this well. But we're not all built like you, Murray.
Murray: No. I'm worse than all of you, because I haven't been able to face this at all.
Beverly: What are you saying?
Murray: The guy who gave me my business, my family, my happiness, he... he's gone forever, and I don't know the first thing to do.
Adam: You really miss him, too?
Murray: Of course I miss him. I'm sorry I haven't talked about it. It's just so damn hard. [Adam hugs Murray]
