Frankie Quote #408
Quote from Frankie in A Simple Christmas
Sue: Axl be quiet, and please let our pretty young mother finish telling us about the presents.
Mike: Well, we thought instead of going crazy buying piles of crap, we could give you just a couple special things that would really mean something to you.
Frankie: Yeah, and if you wanna get something for each other or your friends, you can earn the money. Or make something homemade, from the heart.
Axl: From the heart? Where is this coming from? It's Christmas!
Sue: Well, maybe it wouldn't be so bad... Thinking of something special we really want?
Axl: Traitor!
Brick: Sue!
Sue: It's kind of a nice thought. I know one thing I would really like is a new diary. [Frankie places a diary on the table] Oh, my God! How did you know?
Frankie: We found it under a sweater on Brick's train set. It's exhibit D.

Quote from Axl
Axl: Is that true? Are you weenying out on getting us presents?
Mike: Calm down. Nobody's weenying out of anything. There'll be presents, just maybe not so many.
Sue: All 'cause of an orange?
Brick: What's the orange?
Axl: You remember. From our stockings. That stupid orange from when Mom used to live on the prairie and all she got for Christmas was an orange.
Frankie: Uh, it wasn't frontier days, it's your great-grandmother during the Depression. How old do you think I am?
Axl: God, I don't know. I try not to think about you.
Quote from Frankie
Mike: We're doing a little thinking about Christmas. It seems that we don't always appreciate it the way we should.
Sue: Oh, no, we appreciate it. Mm, we totally appreciate it.
Frankie: Do you? Exhibit A. Does anybody recognize that?
Mike: We'll give you a hint. One of you had to have it just last year.
Axl: Well, it's lame, so I'll go with Sue.
Mike: Ooh! Sorry. We were looking for "Axl." The correct answer is "Axl."
Sue: And it's not even opened. Wow. That is unappreciative.
Frankie: Huh. That's funny you should say that, Sue. Or should I say... Exhibit B.
Sue: Oh! Thank you! I've been looking for this.
Frankie: Been in the middle of the pool table all year, right next to... Exhibit C!
Axl: A word-a-day calendar? Well, you know that's not mine.
Frankie: Brick stopped using it on January 2nd. And coincidentally, the word is "irresponsible."
Quote from Axl
Axl: Glossners are hiding in the bushes. I saw them when Grandma took fudge over to the Donahues. I used her as a human shield.
Brick: I'm cold. I told you we needed a fireplace.
Axl: You can't put a fireplace in an igloo!
Brick: The eskimos do it all the time.
Axl: Oh, my God, Brick. Eskimos aren't even real. They're just in stories like leprechauns and trolls.
