Brick Quote #770
Brick: Cindy and I have been dating for over a year now. I would think you guys would want to meet her parents.
Frankie: Well, Brick, the thing is...
Mike: We don't want to meet them.
Frankie: Mike.
Mike: What? She's weird, and they probably are, too.
Brick: Not necessarily. I'm weird and you guys are normal.
Frankie: That is true.
Brick: Come on. You said you want to be more social, and you said you want to go out with someone from my class. Well, Cindy's in my class, and I think it'd be a really fun time. And it'd make me happy. [both sigh] Great! I'll call Merv and LuEllen and work out the deets.
Mike: How did we go from having pizza in separate rooms to dinner with Merv and LuEllen?

Mike: Okay, Brick. Wrap it up.
Cindy: Goodbye, Brick.
Brick: Goodbye, Cindy. [engine starts] I'll call you when I get there. [car door closes]
Frankie: [v.o.] Turns out, when Cindy's parents said they were moving away, they actually meant two houses away.
Mike: She never mentioned this to you?
Brick: We don't talk that much. [cellphone rings] Oh, I should take this. [answers phone] Hello? Hey, Cindy. She got there safe. [waves to Cindy]
Quote from Brick
Mike: What's with the hat?
Brick: Hmm? Oh, uh, I've been thinking, and I do want to do sports. I figured if I get started now, someday I could be a professional baseball man.
Mike: Really?
Brick: Oh, yeah. I'm passionate about it. I'm just gonna need some equipment... a glove, a bat, a Lenny Dykstra Wheeler Dealer automatic pitching machine with nine-hour battery. It's only $699.99.
Mike: Brick, every time we make toast, we take our lives in our hands. We're not giving $700 to a total stranger.
Brick: But that's what you're supposed to do. That's what Reverend Hayver says in church. You're supposed to give to the people that are less fortunate than you.
Mike: In our defense, they're hard to find.
