Frankie Quote #1583
Quote from Frankie in A Very Donahue Vacation
Frankie: Well, I hear you. My kids don't want to listen to me, either. Ooh, but if somebody else tells 'em something, they're all ears.
Nancy: [chuckles] Yeah, I know. It... It's almost like they're waiting for someone else to say it and then they'll hear it. [gasps] Wait a minute.
Frankie: I'm sorry. [puts caramel corn ball back in the Ziploc bag]
Nancy: We should talk to each other's kids.
Frankie: What? What do you mean?
Nancy: Well, maybe you could talk to Sean. Y-You know, find out where his head's at, see if you can reach his brain under all of that hair of his.
Frankie: Well, yeah, sure. I could... I could talk to him.
Nancy: Great. And I can talk to Brick for you about his thing.
Frankie: Oh, the whispering and whooping? We've decided to just live with that.
Nancy: No, the other thing. That's got to have you worried.
Frankie: Well, yeah, that would be great if you talk to him about... that. Yeah, we definitely don't approve of... that. [takes caramel corn ball out and eats again]

Quote from Brick
Axl: Okay, Brick, I didn't want to do this, but if you don't help me, I might have to tell Cindy about your sudden penchant for older ladies.
Brick: She'd never believe you. Besides, after she kissed that other boy, she gave me what they call a "Hall pass," which, despite the name, does not give me free access to the library.
Quote from Nancy Donahue
Nancy: Frankie, it... it's okay. I'm not mad.
Frankie: Really?
Nancy: Look, people talk about each other. It's what we do. But the thing is, deep in your heart, I know you love me, and I love you, too. I mean, hello! You're like a sister to me.
Frankie: I am?
Nancy: Of course. And no matter what, I could never stay mad at my sister. Get over here. [hugs Frankie] Come on, let's go get a couple of those pineapple drinks.
Frankie: Let's do that, and I'm buying. Ooh, you know what else they had? Watermelon Daiquiris. Doesn't that sound good? I think I'm gonna try that one. [Frankie screams as Nancy knocks her into the pool]
Nancy: Oh, my... Oh, my goodness, Frankie! What happened?
Frankie: Did you push me?
Nancy: No. I think you slipped. See this spot right here? Very slippery. Oh, my goodness. Let's get you out of there.
Frankie: [v.o.] Did I really slip, or did Nancy push me? I kind of hope she pushed me. Because that would mean maybe, just maybe, there's a little sliver of Nancy that's down in the gutter with the rest of us.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: [v.o.] Spring break, when everyone flees the cold winter weather for the surf, the sand, or, in our case, the couch.
Sue: I think they're gonna love it.
Axl: No way. They're gonna list it. He was very clear he wanted a finished basement.
Frankie: Yeah, but after they did that mold remediation, there's no way they're gonna list it.
Brick: But she's not gonna love it without that mud room.
Frankie: I wonder what we would do if our house was ever on this show.
All: List it.
