Frankie Quote #564

Quote from Frankie in The Bridge

Frankie: [v.o.] When you have kids, getting anywhere in the car can be a challenge. A million things can slow you down. Somebody might forget their shoes. Somebody might have to go to the bathroom.
Frankie: You do know Brick is the car, right? [kids groan]
Frankie: [v.o.] Or somebody might have an irrational fear of going over the Shady Lake bridge.
Frankie: Damn it. The half-price all-you-can-eat tater bar is only open for another 15 minutes. Go, go!
Mike: We can make it. We can make it.

Quote from Brick

Frankie: I don't get it, Brick. What are you so afraid of? What do you think is gonna happen?
Brick: We drive onto the bridge, and suddenly there's a terrible cracking sound. The bridge collapses, and the car is thrown into the lake. It fills with water and sinks like a big metal coffin. We struggle to get out, but underwater no one can hear our screams. We all shake with convulsions as the life leaves our bodies. Our bloated corpses go undiscovered for months, but when they're finally dragged out of the lake, they're unrecognizable, because fish have eaten out our eyeballs. [whispers] Eyeballs.

Quote from Axl

Axl: Guys, seriously, I'm trying to study. This is, like, my entire career. It starts with lifeguard. Then I graduate to beach lifeguard, then Hawaiian tropic judge, then rapper, so if you want a shout-out at the Grammys, keep it down!

Quote from Frankie

Frankie: [v.o.] So maybe I didn't get Sue, but I did get Brick. I pushed him out of my body. I could push him over that bridge.
Frankie: All right. Let's not even think about crossing the bridge right now. Let's just get to know the bridge, and don't worry. We'll go at your pace. You take all the time you need.
[later, Frankie stands in the middle of the bridge while Brick remains on land:]
Frankie: It's been two hours! You are going to cross this bridge right now! Right now!
[later, Frankie sits on the hood of the car as Brick stands next to it:]
Frankie: All the cool kids are doing it. Come on, Brick. Don't you wanna be cool?
[later, Frankie bends down to talk to Brick at eye level:]
Frankie: You know, your dad may not think you can handle this, but I do. You're a big boy. You're practically an adult.
[later:]
Frankie: What are you, a baby? A wittle, wittle baby?
[later:]
Frankie: [cries] I'm sorry. I'm a horrible mother!
