Frankie Quote #1517
Quote from Frankie in The Convention
Frankie: Hi, Dr. Samuelson? I'm Frankie Heck from the new Orson clinic.
Dr. Sommer Samuelson: Of course you are.
Frankie: Anyway, I think there's been a misunderstanding. Not that I'm accusing anyone, but I'm not sure it was 100% clear that all expenses were paid.
Dr. Sommer Samuelson: Oh, it's very clear. The convention and your room is completely paid for.
Frankie: Okay, see, I think that's the misunderstanding. Again, not accusing anyone... it was Dr. Goodwin... But some people's expenses were not just the room and convention. [hands over bill]
Dr. Sommer Samuelson: Wow. You guys really had fun.
Frankie: Yeah, we did. We really did. [chuckles] But since this is my husband's and my first time with all expenses paid, we were hoping that you could, just this once, fold the bill into all your other expenses. Just fold it in.
Dr. Sommer Samuelson: You've been with this company for all of 48 hours and you're asking me to pay your $674 bill?
Frankie: Maybe.
Dr. Sommer Samuelson: Wow. That's the exact kind of moxie we're looking for. Picturing the impossible and thinking you can make it happen. In this case, you can't. But don't lose that fire.
Frankie: So, you're not going to pay for it?
Dr. Sommer Samuelson: No way. Selfie?
Frankie: Sure. [both smile]

Quote from Dr. Goodwin
Frankie: Hey, Dr. Goodwin. Um, you said all expenses were being taken care of, right?
Dr. Goodwin: Yepperoonie.
Frankie: Oh, thank god. 'Cause we just got a bill by mistake for our room service and minibar charges.
Dr. Goodwin: Oh, no, now, they never pay for that. That's why I always bring my snack sack with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
Frankie: But you said all expenses paid. That's what you said.
Dr. Goodwin: No, I distinctly remember saying y'all's expenses are paid. Not all y'all's.
Frankie: No, no, no, no, that can't be. I mean, how is anybody supposed to know that "all y'all's" is plural for "y'all's"?
Dr. Goodwin: Well, all y'all's would obviously be more than y'all's. I mean...
Mike: What is he saying? Do you speak hillbilly?
Frankie: Not well, but I think this hillbilly is telling us that we owe $674.
Dr. Goodwin: Ooh, y'all ordered a lot.
Quote from Mike
Mike: Oh, man. I ordered ribs, and I didn't like them, so I ordered a steak. I was living like Caesar up here. And, Frankie, seriously? Dry cleaning?
Frankie: They folded my underwear. It made me feel special. But what about you? Shoeshine? What are you, running for congress?
Mike: I thought all expenses were paid. It seemed nuts not to do it.
Frankie: Let's just run, Mike. Let's just grab the soap and Kleenex and run.
Mike: We can't. We gave them a credit card... the good one.
Dr. Goodwin: Ooh, boy, I got to say, y'all are in quite a pickle.
Mike: [Southern accent] Are we? Are we in a pickle? Have we done and done it? Are we long-tail cats in a room full of rockers?
Frankie: Mike, calm down. That is not helping anything. Now, look, I will think of something, but in the meantime, take the robe off, Hef. That costs 60 bucks. Take the other one out of my suitcase.
Quote from Axl
Axl: Okay, we'll start with the basic categories of lies. Number one... personal tragedy. You're dying, a friend's dying, Grandma's dying. You get the picture. It's old school, but it totally works. It does, however, require a certain shady moral compass.
Sue: I could never do that to Grandma. She just sent fudge.
Axl: Well, there's the "appeal to their humanity" lie. You call up the professor and say, "I could tell you a lie, but I respect you too much."
Sue: Wait, so am I lying or not lying?
Axl: That might be a little advanced for you. There is a new category that's very promising. The "I identify with the opposite gender and have issues" lie. The only downside is you have to live the next four years as a man. It's a big commitment.
