Quote from Beverly
Beverly: I knew one day my kids would join the workforce, so like a good mother I compiled a list of occupations that are strictly off limits.
Barry: Why can't I be a construction worker?
Beverly: Eating lunch on a suspended beam with your legs dangling down? No way!
Barry: No pro-sports?
Beverly: Except golf, but you can't drive around in one of those buggies with no seatbelts.
Barry: Astronaut?
Beverly: Your sensitive tummy at zero-G?
Barry: Deli guy?
Beverly: Meat slicer.
Barry: Government clerk?
Beverly: Papercut.
Barry: Robot technician?
Beverly: Robot uprising.
Quote from Barry
Murray: Good stuff. What branch?
Barry: The one with the planes and boats. You're welcome, America.
Quote from Barry
Barry: Question, when do we get our nicknames assigned? Because I'm thinking I'm gonna be Sky Shark.
Andy: I call Sky Tiger.
Rob: Dude, I told you Sky Tiger was my nickname.
Andy: No one's Sky Tiger. I'm Sky Shark. There can't be two Skys.
Geoff: I was kinda thinking Thunder Shark.
Barry: No, bro, I'm the shark!
Quote from Barry
Erica: Dear God, you have been flipping knobs for five minutes. Just go already.
Barry: We ain't going anywhere until Tower clears us for take-off.
Erica: You're clear!
Quote from Barry
ROTC Co-ordinator: Morning, gentlemen. Interested in joining up with ROTC? I need able-bodied leaders with fire in their bellies looking to make a difference.
Barry: That's so weird. I'm an able-bodied person with a fiery belly who's ready to fly your jets and push your envelopes, and play shirtless beach volleyball.
ROTC Co-ordinator: What?
Barry: It's proven to be a nice diversion from the pressures of flight school.
ROTC Co-ordinator: What's your name, son?
Barry: Barry Norman Goldberg. Nickname not yet decided. You'll be amazed by our strength and determination, sir.
Quote from Erica
Erica: Oh my God, Pops actually bought a place in Florida?
Adam: Right, it's a nightmare.
Erica: Hello! We're gonna have our own beach condo. Think of all the spring breaks, the Latin guys, the romantic walks on the beach with the Latin guys.
Adam: Why do I come to you?
Quote from Barry
Barry: Shut up. Everyone shut up, I've got Barry news.
Beverly: Everybody stop talking.
Quote from Barry
Murray: And one more thing, if you do this, there's no quitting. I mean it.
Barry: 10-4, good buddy.
Murray: That's trucker talk.
Barry: Aye-aye, matey.
Murray: That's pirate.
Barry: Hmm.
Quote from Barry
Barry: Barry Norman Goldberg, reporting for duty.
ROTC Co-ordinator: Son, I told you three times. I know you're here.
Quote from Barry
ROTC Co-ordinator: Enough! Instead of nicknames, how about this? Give me twenty push-ups.
Barry: If my body's already in peak physical condition, can I pass and practice instead?
ROTC Co-ordinator: Practice what?
Barry: Volleyball.
Geoff: You know, for when we go to the beach and flex our young, glistening bodies.
Barry: I'm kinda body-concious so I'm not going to pop off my t-shirt at the beach, if that's cool.
Rob: He's got an outie.
Barry: Sshhh.
