Quote from Frankie in The Play
Frankie: Oh, hey, Sue. Do you got a minute?
Sue: I was just gonna go run my line.
Frankie: Oh, I think that can wait. Listen, honey, I have some terrible news.
Sue: Grandma died?
Frankie: No. No, but keep that in perspective as to what terrible news really is. Listen, Ggene talked to me last night, and he said he was really sorry, but unfortunately... [sighs] You're off the play.
Sue: What?! Why?
Frankie: I guess there were some complaints that your eyes were more interesting to watch than the lead performance. Oh, I'm really sorry, honey. Oh, it stinks.

Quote from Rusty
Mike: Rusty, what the hell? Where were you?
Rusty: Oh, I was in my room, and then I heard the door, and then I came here.
Mike: Brick's Grandparents and Special People Day. Any of that ring a bell?
Rusty: Oh, well, I-I don't think that was, uh, that was actually a firm commitment.
Mike: [scoffs] Nothing's ever a firm commitment with you. This is what you do. You didn't even bother to show up at my wedding.
Rusty: [chuckles] Well, who has a wedding on a weekend?
Mike: Everyone on Earth.
Quote from Rusty
Rusty: So, uh... Oh, you... You want a cup of coffee? Uh, d-do you drink coffee?
Brick: Nope.
Rusty: Oh, no, no, no, no. Coffee's bad. Cigarettes are bad, too. I gotta go have both, but, um, let me be a cautionary tale for you.
Quote from Rusty
Frankie: [v.o.] So over the clutter and through the stoves, to grandfather's house Brick went.
Rusty: [opens door] Oh. Hey, I know you. From that time we ate turkey. You're Kevin. Kenny!
Brick: Brick.
Rusty: Well, if you say so.
Brick: Actually, Uncle Rusty, I was looking for Grandpa Big Mike. Grandparents and Special Friends day is coming up at my school, and I wanted to see if he could come to my class.
Rusty: Nah, they're tearing down a Red Roof Inn in Traverse City, and, uh, Dad's down there picking up 40 toilets.
Brick: Shoot. I'm straddling check, check-minus territory here. I could really use the extra credit. Hey, maybe you could come.
Rusty: Well, what are they paying?
Brick: Uh, they're not paying anything.
Rusty: Oh. [chuckles] Well, uh, I've been looking for a reason to put on a pair of pants, so sure.
