Frankie Quote #690
Quote from Frankie in Thanksgiving III
Frankie: [v.o.] Every family has their favorite Thanksgiving recipe. This is ours.
Mike: I just don't get why we can't stay in a motel.
Frankie: Because, Mike, everybody in one house is what makes holidays special. Me and my mom and my sister hanging out in our PJ's having breakfast. Late nights listening to my dad tell his bawdy jokes. If we stayed at a motel, we would be missing out on all those little nuggets of happiness.
Mike: Sorry if I'm not excited about sleeping on an air mattress. My back hurts just thinking about it.
Frankie: I told you, we get the bedroom this time. It's our turn. Besides, Janet won't even be there till tomorrow because she's got Lucy's pilgrim hip-hop recital.
Mike: [scoffs] Great. The miracle baby's taking hip-hop now?
Frankie: She was a miracle. Janet had one good egg, Mike. One.
Axl: Oh, yeah. Forgot to tell you. Aunt Janet called. She said Lucy's recital got canceled, so they're getting there today.
Mike: What? [floors the car]

Quote from Tag
Tag: This one's for my liver. This one here, this is for my foot fungus, and this one thins my blood. No lie, if I get as much as a splinter, I can bleed out faster than you can say Tom Sawyer. [Axl chuckles] Don't get old, Mike.
Mike: Believe me, I'm weighing all my options.
Quote from Tag
Tag: Hey, guys, what gives?
Axl: He doesn't want to go back in there 'cause he got shot down trying to pick up the hot cashier.
Mike: No, I was trying to teach him how to talk to girls 'cause he was embarrassing himself.
Tag: [chuckles] Axl, Axl, Axl. Listen, if you wanted tips on the ladies, you should have come to the old Tag-eroo. Here's what you do. First you win over her father. Then you buy her a rose every day for two weeks. Trust me, you'll be holding hands in six months.
Axl: Well, Grandpa, that's all really awesome advi-
Tag: Come on, let's go in. I'll be your sidecar.
Mike: Wingman.
Quote from Pat
Frankie: So, Mom... What's the plan? When are you gonna start cooking tomorrow? Mike's been dreaming about your famous sweet potatoes.
Pat: Oh, don't worry, Mike. You're gonna get your sweet potatoes. This year, I prepared everything ahead of time and I froze it. Made these babies in July. After all, Thanksgiving is about the family, not the food.
Mike: It's a little about the food.
