‘The Circle of Driving Again’

Season 5, Episode 8 -  Aired November 29, 2017

As Murray tries to teach Adam how to drive on his sixteenth birthday, his head is filled with Beverly's scary stories about driving. Meanwhile, when Barry visits Erica at college, his popularity makes her question why she hasn't made any friends.

Quote from Pops

Adam: Hey, Pops? Got a second?
Pops: Sure thing, kiddo.
Adam: Listen, I was thinking Maybe Mom and Dad are right. Maybe it's time for you to stop driving. For real this time.
Pops: Your parents put you up to this?
Adam: No. This time, it's coming from me. I know Mom drilled car safety into my head and all, but I think, in your case, you really should listen.
Pops: Adam, I can't just stop driving. I mean, how are we gonna go on all our crazy adventures?
Adam: Easy. I'll drive us.
Pops: You?
Adam: If getting my license means I get to keep hanging out with you, then I'm all in.
Pops: You'd do that for me? Then I guess these are yours now.

Quote from Beverly

Adam: I know you're bummed about giving up driving, so I thought this place would cheer you up.
Pops: You know me well, kiddo.
Beverly: Oh, hell no! We're going to the Spaghetti Warehouse across the street. Don't even look at this place.

Quote from Murray

Beverly: Stop it. My scrumptious little baby-man does not have to learn to drive until he's absolutely ready.
Adam: That's a no. Victory-dance time. Mm-mm-mm, Uh-uh-uh-uh, yeah, That's right, I'm not driving.
Barry: Hey, stop copying my driving dance!
Adam: I'm not. It's the not-driving dance.
Barry: There's no such thing!
Murray: I'm raising complete morons.
Pops: It's getting hard to argue.

Quote from Erica

Guy: Hey, either of you interested in Ultimate Frisbee?
Erica: Are you interested in picking a sport with a ball?
Other Erica: Maybe you should join a club for freshmen who hate everything.
Erica: Great. Where's that table?
Other Erica: Seriously, you're a total downer. You, like, pooh-pooh everything.
Erica: I don't, like, pooh-pooh everything. Just offer me something cool, and I'm there.

Quote from Erica

Srini: Looking for something cool, eh? Lucky for you, your RA Srini has the answer, ladies.
Erica: Karaoke and togas? Pass.
Srini: I see. Well, if you change your mind, feel free to drop by and RSVP.
Erica: Here's my RSVP. [blows raspberry, gives thumbs down]
Other Erica: Guess that's an RSVP for just one, then.
Erica: Wait, you're going? Why?
Other Erica: 'Cause it sounds fun, and, unlike you, I, like, like fun.
Erica: I, like, like fun, too!

Quote from Erica

Erica: Gah! Barry?!
Barry: Hey, I drank all your 5 Alive.
Erica: What are you doing here?
Barry: Hello?! It's my college tour! I told you like 10 times.
Erica: I knew that, silly. I just lost track of the days with all the awesome parties and whatnot. There's so many parties. Which are all totally real, because I am killing it here.

Quote from Erica

Erica: Srini! Nice toga, my man! I changed my mind about your kareoga thing.
Srini: Did you, now?
Erica: See, my brother's here, and I kinda told him that I'm the queen of college, so you can see why I now have a sudden interest in your crappy party. Just party. Not crappy.
Srini: That is the single worst RSVP ever. And it's been declined.
Erica: What? You can't decline! You're my RA. You have to include me.
Srini: Farewell.
Erica: So that's a yes?

Adam: No! [Car horn honking]
Murray: See, what'd I tell ya? Nothing bad's gonna happen. [a car drives by and takes the door off] Aah!
Adam: [panting] Just remember, I was good with the locket.

Quote from Barry

Erica: Okay, stop. This bag of crap will not help you.
Barry: Trust me, all you need to do is put yourself out there to show the other attractive party-minded boys and girls that you mean business.
Erica: Dude, that is not how college works.
Adult Adam: [v.o.] That is, unless you have sweet dreads and an invisible dog.
[cut to:]
Barry: [Jamaican accent] Check it out, mons and lady mons. My dog be jammin'!

Quote from Barry

Girl: Look! His dog is invisible.
Barry: His name's Butterscotch. He's part Beagle and part not real. I rescued him from a kill shelter, although I feel like he rescued me.
Girls: Aww!
