Quote from Axl in Hecking Order
Sue: But when you're the middle kid, you kinda disappear.
Axl: I'd kill for less attention. You can get away with whatever you want. You fly under the radar.
Sue: But I don't wanna fly under the radar. I just feel like when you're the-
Axl: Block away. [Sue removes her seat belt and ducks down]
Sue: I just feel like as the middle child, people don't see me. It's like sometimes I'm invisible.
Woman: [in passing car] Hey, Ax-man! [horn honks]
Axl: Yeah, you know it! Maybe feeling invisible is a good thing. Like, because you're the middle kid, you want people to notice you. You just keep trying. [Sue sticks her head up] Not yet.
Sue: Okay.

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?"
