Sue Quote #474
Quote from Sue in Sleepless in Orson
Sue: Oh. What are you doing here, Derrick Glossner?
Derrick Glossner: Look. I know you think me kissing you four times was...
Sue: Five times.
Derrick Glossner: Yeah, well, don't worry about it, 'cause I'm not gonna kiss you again.
Sue: Good, 'cause it's gross and I do not think about it at night while I fall asleep.
Derrick Glossner: Look, I've been thinking about this. I'm used to just taking what I want when I want it.
Sue: Uh-huh.
Derrick Glossner: Thing is, I know I'm not worthy of you yet. I will be someday. I want to make something of myself like a roofer or a landscaper's assistant. And then I'm coming back for you, Sue Heck. And when I do, I'm gonna kiss you so hard, I'll knock your braces off.
[As Derrick Glossner walks away, he picks up a baseball bat and knocks down the Hecks' mail box]
Frankie: [v.o.] Luckily, like everything else in our house, we can easily imagine our mailbox broken. Turns out, we've been Buddhist for years.

Quote from Mike
Mike: Look, Brick, you're freaking yourself out here. The news is on 24 hours a day now, so they got to keep drumming up scary stuff so people will watch.
Brick: But it's all true. It's all stuff that's really happening.
Mike: Sure, but what you got to do is ignore it. That's what I do. Anything that's gonna be bad news: TV, the internet, parent/teacher conferences... I ignore it. Embrace denial. You'll be much happier. Then, when you turn 21, embrace beer.
Frankie: [sighs] Nice parenting there, Dad.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: The point is, things aren't really as bad as they make them sound. Did you know there's actually fewer kidnappings now than there were 20 years ago? It's just 'cause we get our news faster, so we hear about them more often.
Brick: So, I shouldn't be worried about being kidnapped?
Frankie: No, of course not.
Brick: Then why can't I go to the mall by myself or talk to strangers?
Frankie: Well, you still have to be on alert.
Brick: For what?
Frankie: You know, for things that will never happen but you should still be cautious about.
Brick: You just said I don't need to worry about being kidnapped. Why do I need to be cautious?
Frankie: Look, you don't. You shouldn't think about it at all. But... j-just keep it in the back of your mind.
Quote from Brad
Brad: Sue, I've been here an hour, and you haven't even asked about me. How's my girlfriend in Canada? She's great. Thanks for asking. How come I'm not driving my Miata? The mechanic says it needs a makeover. Boo. Did I get the male lead in the Annie musical? You bet your bottom dollar I did.
