Mike Quote #915
Quote from Mike in The Core Group
Frankie: So, remember, Mike, this person is very special to Axl, so you have to talk to her. Be social. Don't be your usual self.
Mike: You know, just because I'm big doesn't mean words don't hurt me.
Frankie: Well, you really got to bring it. We may be about to meet the one, so you got to take it in, be present, be in the moment. Oh, but also be in the future, where you can look back on this moment. But also be in the past, where Axl was a baby so you can feel feelings. Oh, no wheelbarrow story. You're the only one that thinks it's funny.
Mike: [chuckling] I walked off with the wrong wheelbarrow! Everyone thinks that's funny.

Quote from Brick
Frankie: Brick, back me up on this.
Brick: I once saw a cartoon where a wolf saw a sexy rabbit in a nightclub, and his tongue came out like steps. That's how she made me feel... April, not the rabbit. A little bit the rabbit.
Quote from Brick
Frankie: Ooh! White jeans! You don't have those.
Brick: I'm sorry, Mom. No more cousin stuff. I'm putting my foot down, and not in those Crocs.
Frankie: All right. I'm just gonna try these snowpants on you while you talk.
Brick: No! It's high school... a fresh start. First impressions are key. Most people decide what they think about you within the first seven seconds of meeting you. It's in this fascinating book I've been reading. I found it by happenstance because it was erroneously mis-shelved.
Mike: Don't tell that story in the first seven seconds.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: Because we won't have many more with just the core four...
Brick: Five.
Frankie: Five. I knew that. The rhyme threw me off.
Frankie: Look, we have a window, a small...
April: Where's your bathroom, again?
Frankie: Could you just hold it for a second, April?! We're at a crossroads. Axl's a senior, Brick is in high school...
Axl: I should really show April where the bathroom...
Frankie: No, you are not showing her where the bathroom is! Look, what I'm trying to tell you is that I love you! I love you, and we have to appreciate these moments together because we will never have this again, never! Do you get that?! The storm windows are shutting! I'm gonna ditch the whole idea of the storm windows. The point is, I love you! Now, clink your mayonnaise and your olives together like you mean it! [bottles clink]
