Frankie Quote #23
Quote from Frankie in The Cheerleader
Frankie: [whispers] Psst! Kid. Yeah, come here. How would you like to check out this book for me on your card, huh? No, no, you don't have to tell anybody. It'll just be our little secret.
Boy: I don't know.
Frankie: Oh, come on, what's gonna happen? Nothing. I promise. I have jellybeans.
Boy: Okay.
Frankie: Great. Here. And remember, don't take candy from strangers. I mean, I'm okay, but in the future, don't do it. I'll be waiting for you in the bushes.

Quote from Mike
Frankie: [v.o.] Out here in the middle, people are straight shooters. They just say it like it is. Well, I got one of those types in my house as well.

Mike: [to Brick] Hell, yeah, you were a mistake. I mean, we're happy you're here now, but you were definitely a mistake.
Mike: [to Frankie] It's funny because you're not fat, but that skirt sure makes you look fat.
Mike: [to a young Sue] Ha. Who told you Scrappy went to a farm? He's not on a farm. He's dead.
Quote from Brick
[Brick walks over to Frankie holding a book, Sorrow's Destiny]
Brick: Mom. Which part of me is my hungering manhood?

Quote from Axl
Frankie: [v.o.] If the library fines were half a dryer, glasses were a whole dryer. But luckily, the Frugal Hoosier has an optical department. And no mirrors.
[Axl and Mike stand in front of Sue as she tries on pairs of glasses]
Axl: Dork. Dork. I would never stop punching you.
Mike: Knock it off. She's a young girl with emotions all over her surface... or something like that. Anyway, our job is to cheer her on.
Axl: [to Sue] Oh, my God. Those look so great. Seriously. I think you should really, really buy them.
