Frankie and Mike are worried that Axl will blow his interview with a football scout. Meanwhile, Aunt Edie gives Sue and Brick a box of her old stuff, including a cell phone.

Quote from Frankie

Frankie: Brick? Sue? Anything interesting happen to you guys today?
Sue: [texting under the table] Nah.
Brick: [texting under the table] No.
Frankie: Well, then. Let's talk about my day. Let's see, um... I almost made a sale. And... Oh. Listen to this, Mike. I got a strange call from the phone company, saying that Aunt Edie sent hundreds of texts she doesn't even remember sending and she added a phone to her plan. I don't know. I'm worried about her.
Mike: Hmm.
Frankie: I hate to admit it, but maybe it's time to put 'em in a home. [off Axl's look] Just go.
Sue: Can we go, too?
Brick: Yeah, my battery's dead. You know, metaphorically. Long day. [yawns]

Quote from Frankie

Frankie: So, Mike, anything happen at work today?
Mike: Nope.
Frankie: Uh-huh. Go on.
Mike: We got a new rock crusher.
Frankie: Oh, wow. Crushing rocks? Sounds exciting.
Mike: It's not. What are you staring at me for? I got something on my face?
Frankie: Oh, just listening to my husband, being present, wanting to hear what the most important person in the world to me did today.
Mike: You wreck the car or something?
Frankie: You are so funny. I forget how funny you are.
Axl: Oh, interception! Dad, you're missing it!
