Sue Quote #849
Sue: Okay, people, I have been thinking about everything you've said, and I know what I want my major to be. [clears throat] I think it's a good decision. I am going to major in... hospitality and hotel management.
Mike: Is that a real thing? Is that something people can do?
Sue: Yeah, I just found it. I was researching other majors, and it turns out the school is known for this program. Listen to this. 92% of graduates find employment within six months, and there's tons of benefits. I mean, I had never really heard of this as a major before, but it makes complete sense for me. It's people-driven, so I could use my Dollywood experience. If I'm working abroad... [speaks German] And if it's a pet-friendly hotel, I'll get to be around animals. Plus, think of all the binders I would have. You know how I feel about binders.
Frankie: Oh, Sue, hotels... that's awesome.
Sue: Yeah. Dad, what do you think?
Mike: I think we got a winner.
Sue: [squeals] Okay! Okay. My major is... [computer chimes] ...declared.

Quote from Mike
Sue: You told Axl what to major in.
Mike: Axl needed to be told to close his mouth when he takes a shower.
Sue: But you gave up everything for me. I don't want to disappoint you or make another mistake. Tell me what you want me to do. You have to. Please?
Mike: Look, you were never supposed to know what happened with the business. That was my choice. And maybe I didn't do you any favors trying to protect you, but I just didn't think you should have to worry about that. You're asking me what I want for you. I don't know. I-I'll tell you what I don't want for you. I don't want you to be on a first-name basis with the operator from the gas company, even though Joyce is very nice and lets us spread the bill over three credit cards. I don't want you to have to share a battery between both your cars. I don't want you to have to hope for a tornado to bring your next appliance. I'm not trying to scare you, kid, but... it's hard sometimes living like we do. And, uh... what I hope for you is just that it can be different.
Quote from Axl
Brick: I panicked, and for good reason. There's no way we're getting out of this. In books, they always catch the culprit.
Axl: [sighs] What books?
Brick: How about any Sherlock Holmes novel? Have you read The Hound of the Baskervilles?
Axl: No.
Brick: A Study in Scarlet?
Axl: No.
Brick: The Valley of Fear?
Axl: No! But I have seen Captain America.
Brick: What happens in that?
Axl: I don't know. I kind of lost the plot.
Brick: Seriously, Axl, what are going to do?
Axl: [groans] Just give me a second. I need to think. [exhales deeply] What did happen in Captain America?
Quote from Mike
Frankie: I think we got to talk to her. I-I mean, I want her to do something that she loves but still practical, you know?
Mike: When did people decide they got to like what they do? Work is work.
Frankie: I know.
Mike: There's only four fun jobs in the world anyway. Baseball player, football player, basketball player, bounty hunter.
Frankie: Bounty hunter?
Mike: Yeah, it's cool.
