Frankie Quote #206
Frankie: [v.o.] I can't say we fell back in love with our car after that trip, but Brick was right. It is all about the journey, and not the trophy, which he didn't get, or the postcards, which Sue didn't get. But what we did get were some pretty funny memories. I keep thinking about Axl squished up in that ridiculous cot all night. After all, it's the bad trips that you never forget.
Sue: That was definitely pathetic. But not more pathetic than the world's stupidest stump. Why did I think that'd be fun?

Quote from Axl
Axl: I had the lowest of expectations, and I'm still disappointed.
Quote from Mr. Ehlert
Frankie: [v.o.] Americans have had a long love affair with their cars. Road trips, tailgating, family vacations... But these days, not so much.
Mr. Ehlert: America is treating its cars like an old wife it's sick of sleeping with because maybe she's gained a little weight or stopped taking care of herself. No offense, Frances.
Frankie: None taken?
Mr. Ehlert: America's bored with their cars, and we need a little PR to fix that. Everybody give a big hand to our new customer-relations supervisor, Frances Heck.
Frankie: Oh. [applause]
Mr. Ehlert: From now on, Frances, you're responsible for writing birthday cards to all the cars we've sold over the last 10 years.
Frankie: I'm writing birthday cards to cars?
Mr. Ehlert: You have until next week to do 5,000. Congratulations on your promotion.
Quote from Axl
Sue: I'm gonna get postcards from every fun thing we do for my birthday weekend, and Mom's gonna help me make a scrapbook.
Axl: Awesome. I'm gonna take pictures of every lame thing we do on this lame weekend, and then Mom can look to them for clues as to why I ran away.
