Mike Quote #42
Quote from Mike in The Scratch
Brick: Sorry, Mom. You told me not to tell, but I told. Don't be mad.
Frankie: Mad? No! Why would I be mad? I am never mad, never, ever, ever. This is all a huge misunderstanding. The beer bottle hit him when I tossed it gently... Just oh, so gently...
Officer McCoy: And do you often drink in the morning?
Frankie: No. I think that was my husband's beer bottle.
Officer McCoy: Mr. Heck, you're the one who drinks in the morning?
Mike: [sighs] No. God, this is ridiculous. Look... Hey, you know what? We have a teenage son that is a huge pain in the butt. Don't you think if we wanted to abuse somebody, we would have abused him?

Quote from Mike
Mike: Hey. Why are you crying?
Sue: I'm just so scared.
Mike: Honey, I'm gonna give you a piece of advice that my dad gave me once. He said, "Son, stuff those feelings down. Stuff 'em down, and eventually they'll go away." And I have not cried since.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: Okay, what do you think? Shades open or closed? No. Closed looks like we're hiding something. Open. Open. [gasps] Oh, my God. The raccoons tore into the garbage that never got picked up. Sue, get out there and clean that up. Okay, where is the Bible? I wanna put it on the coffee table. You know, we don't have a real book anywhere. Just People magazine. Mike, quick, turn all the TVs to PBS.
Mike: What channel is that?
Frankie: I don't know.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: [v.o.] I don't think I ever knew what relief meant until that moment. There was an upside to all that happened, though. I had written proof that I was a good parent, and believe me, it came in handy.
Axl: Whoa! I cannot believe that you won't let me go car skiing. It's safe. There's a spotter car that follows right behind. Oh, my God. You are the worst mom ever.
Frankie: Really? The state of Indiana seems to disagree.
Frankie: [v.o.] Yep. It was good to have it in writing.
