Frankie Quote #1454
Quote from Frankie in Not Your Brother's Drop Off
Sue: You're not sad I'm leaving?
Frankie: What?! How can you say that? [voice breaking] I am so sad right now. I can't believe my little girl is leaving. [whimpers] Okay, fine. I'm not sad right now, but it's not because I love you any less than Axl. It's just because I've been through it all before. You'll see when you have kids.
Sue: [to Axl] This is all your fault! You just stole all Mom's emotions! You've been doing it your whole life! Every time I do something, it's already been done by you! You are just, like, one big, greedy emotion dustbuster sucking up all Mom's love! This is the worst college drop-off ever! This is nothing like how I pictured it!
Frankie: [sighs] Why not, Sue?! This seems to be the way we do it! You said you wanted the same as Axl, and here we are... fighting on the side of the road. So, congratulations! You got your wish! [metal creaks]

Quote from Brick
Brick: [over radio] Actually, I have a question.
Sue: You're a go, Brick.
Brick: Well, Cindy said she wants to take our relationship to the next level, and Axl said I should figure out what that level is and bump it up at least two levels, but I'm not sure that's solid advice. Mom, when you and Dad were at level...
Frankie: Brick, do not take any of Axl's advice. Do you read me? Over.
Axl: I am simply informing him of the levels he'll have to master if he wants to keep a girl like Cindy satisfied. Over.
Frankie: All right, that's it. We're switching cars. Pull over. Over.
Brick: I just don't want to blow this. I really like her. She gets my sense of humor. She's pretty. She provides stability my family does not. Plus, on hot days, I can walk in her shadow. [whispers] Shadow. [normal voice] Over. [whispers] Over.
Quote from Mike
Mike: And, Sue, you're coming with me. Let's go. We got work to do. Time to teach you how to balance a checkbook.
Sue: But...
Frankie: [v.o.] Yep, all summer long, Mike had been dealing with Sue's impending departure by trying to cram 1,000 life lessons into the little time they had left.

Mike: There's a lot of spiders in the world, and I'm not gonna be there to kill them all for you. One's poisonous, it bites you in your sleep, you're dead.
Mike: Okay, late at night, you're broken down on the side of the road, nobody in sight... It's up to you to change this tire, or you're dead.
Sue: [opens bedroom door] Hi, Dad.
Mike: You didn't ask who it was. Who it was is a dangerous stranger, and you're dead.
