Brick Quote #227
Quote from Brick in Hecking Order
Mike: Hey, Brick, you know, with Sue hoggin' up all the oxygen, I don't think we've heard a word out of you all week. How's fourth grade treating you?
Brick: Not well.
Frankie: [sighs] You didn't do something weird already in class yet, did you? It's just the first week, Brick. You gotta pace yourself.
Brick: It's my teacher, Mr. Wilkerson. He's a man. I like women. I like their bosoms.
Mike: We all do, Brick, but right now you're in a bosomless situation. You gotta make the best of it.
Brick: But when he asks you a question, he throws you the answer ball. If I have to catch a ball to answer a question, it's gonna be a long year.
Mike: Playing catch in class? That, for most kids, is what's called fun.
Brick: But when he takes us to gym, we're supposed to climb the rope. He fails to pick up on my reluctance. He's not a good fit for me. You should probably go talk to him.

Quote from Frankie
Frankie: Hey, Mike, your kids have the crazy idea that in the hierarchy of this house, you're in charge.
Mike: Okay.
Frankie: Okay? Okay? Wait. You agree with that? You think that's accurate?
Mike: I don't know. I just got home. It's not inaccurate.
Axl: See? That's what I said.
Frankie: What? Why? What, because he's a man and I'm a woman? Why would you think he's in charge?
Sue: Well, he's scarier.
Brick: And he pays the bills and stuff.
Frankie: Okay, first of all, we are equally scary. We're equal in everything. We are equal. Just, look at the chart!
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: [v.o.] It was my fault, really. I'm the one who had the bright idea of family dinner. Actually, Oprah had the idea in her magazine. Oprah, who doesn't have kids.
Quote from Axl
Sue: Do you really think it's bad being the oldest?
Axl: Are you kidding? Mom and Dad have been all up in my business ever since I was born. When I started high school, they were all, "How's it going, Axl? How are your classes? Who are your teachers? Who are your friends?"
