Quote from Mike in A Tough Pill to Swallow

Mike: Now, look. When we get in there, just as a warning, you may see me do some things you've never seen before. Things I'm not proud of.
[cut to a smiling Mike greeting the administrator:]
Mike: Hi! Ms. Teegarden, is it? Teegarden. That's a pretty name. And who... Oh! Who's the cute kitty? She's a little sweetie, isn't she?
Ms. Teegarden: Mr. Heck. How can I help you?
Mike: Well, first of all, let me thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule. I know you've got a lot on your plate. Okay, we have a little situation here. My wife's a little upset with me. See, our daughter forgot to fill out her financial aid package. Just a small thing. But now they're telling her that she won't be in school, and she really wants to go to school because school is important and... Look who I'm talking to. You're an educator. I don't have to tell you that. So, if you could just see your way clear to reinstate that aid, well, that'd go a long way to get me out of the old doghouse with the old wife. Not that she's old. She's kind of old.
Ms. Teegarden: I appreciate your plight, but unfortunately, there's nothing I can do. Unless you'd like to pay the full tuition now.
Mike: Oh, well, I'd like to, but I'm afraid that's not really a possibility for us right now.
Sue: You want to see a picture of our family room?
Mike: No, see, we're not asking for anything extra. We only take as many ketchup packets as the drive-thru gives us. We're... We're just asking for what we already had. See? There must be some kind of wiggle room here.
