Quote from Nancy Donahue in Taking Back the House
Nancy: Frankie, what's going on? I saw Brick walking to school. He said he missed the bus and you wouldn't drive him. Frankie: That is correct. Nancy: Oh, no. Are you and Mike having problems? Did you lose your job? Are you drinking mouthwash to get drunk in the middle of the day? Frankie: No. Mike and I have decided not to be stumps anymore. If Brick misses the bus, he has to walk to school.
