Frankie Quote #1066
Quote from Frankie in The Ditch
Dr. Goodwin: What is going on with you? All day long you've been acting like a pardon my Frencha weirdo. I mean, I love the repeating game more than anybody, but I just don't think it's appropriate for work.
Frankie: [sighs] Okay, look. The truth is... I think this guy is stalking me. I saw him at the power company this morning, and now he's here.
Dr. Goodwin: I had no idea. Thank you for your honesty. Boy, I remember how nervous I was telling my dad, "Dad, I hate dentistry! I want to be a fireman!" But then I didn't pass the fireman test 'cause I had a bad eye. This one's glass. It's not. But I wish it was, then I wouldn't have to be a dentist. [inhales sharply] Hey. Maybe I should just "drop him" from the practice so you don't have to see him again.
Frankie: You know, I think that would be best. We don't need that kind of crazy around here.
Frankie: [v.o.] Well, it's true what they say. He who lies once finds it much easier to lie again. I read that on a poster somewhere probably in Sue's room. You know, I'm starting to understand how Lance Armstrong got in so deep.

Quote from Sue
Frankie: [v.o.] Sue's ditch day wasn't exactly fun yet. But she knew as soon as she intercepted the call from the attendance office, she could really start living. Provided she stayed low to the ground and out of sight.
Sue: [answers phone] Hello?
Woman: This is the Orson High attendance office. May I speak to Frankie Heck, please?
Sue: [British accent] Yes, this is she! [whispers] Why am I British?
Woman: I'm just verifying that Sue Heck is home sick today.
Sue: [British accent] Oh, yes. She is quite sick. Sick as the Dickens, I'm afraid.
Woman: Well, please make sure she brings a note with a parent signature.
Sue: [British accent] A note?
Woman: Yes. It's a requirement anytime a student has been absent.
Sue: [British accent] Very well. A note. I'll add it to my shed-ule. Cheerio!
Quote from Axl
Axl: You know, I've never really looked at your room before. When you feel your nerd powers being drained, do you come in here to recharge?
Sue: [scoffs] Get out of here, Axl.
Axl: Oh, I'm going. [clears throat] And you know why? Because a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Sue: Hilarious. Maybe I'll take a journey to the kitchen and tell mom you were in my room!
Axl: Jeez, hang in there, baby. Don't sweat the small stuff.
Sue: Would you just get out?! I don't go into your room and stare at your booger wall.
Axl: Hey! Some of those aren't mine.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: Brick, what are you doing in there? Get what you want and shut the door.
Brick: But I've got my middle school placement test tomorrow. Mr. Walker said everyone has to bring a healthy snack.
Frankie: Well... [sighs] yeah. Here you go. Jelly. Jelly's a fruit. Can't get much healthier than that.
Brick: We're out of bread.
Frankie: Even better. You eat it with a spoon, and the vitamins get to your brain faster.
Brick: [sighs] Fine.
