Frankie Quote #473
Quote from Frankie in Friends, Lies and Videotape
Frankie: Okay, rock stars, that's Brick's friend. Everybody clear out.
Brick: [singsongy] That's for me. That's my friend. My friend's here!
Frankie: Hi, Gerald. This is Brick. Brick, this is Gerald. I sure hope you're ready to have fun, Gerald, 'cause we sure are. Who's ready to make their own gummy worms?
Frankie: [v.o.] Yep. I was gonna pull out every trick in the mom book. I made tents. I made snacks. And I made sure it only lasted 48 minutes so Brick didn't lose interest.
Gerald: Thanks for having me. I had a great time.
Frankie: Did you hear that, Brick? He had a great time. Are you sure I can't give you something for the ride home? How about a bag of marshmallows?
Gerald: No, thanks. I'm full.
Frankie: Oh, come on. I can't send you home empty-handed. Oh. Here's a dollar. Okay. Have your mom call for another playdate.

Quote from Sue
Mike: Sue, I need to talk to you.
Sue: Okay.
Mike: [sighs] Your mom and I found this ticket stub, and we are very disappointed...
Sue: I'm sorry! [sobs] I'm so sorry. I should have listened to you. You were right. You were totally right! I'm not ready to see an R-rated movie! They said and did weird things. And then how could he sleep with his wife and then sleep with his wife's sister the next day? It was disgusting! And that's not even the worst of it! Mom's always telling me to just put one pump of butter on my popcorn, but I put three pumps 'cause I thought I could handle it! But I couldn't, Dad! I couldn't handle it! I threw up on the theater floor. Oh, God. How could I ever doubt you? [sobs]
Quote from Sue
Mike: Okay, well, it seems like you realize what you did was wrong, but, Sue, you know, there are consequences to lying.
Sue: There should be so many consequences!
Mike: Right... and so you are grounded for a week. No TV.
Sue: No, that's not enough! I defied you!
Mike: Oh. Okay. Well... I'm taking your iPod, too.
Sue: And I lied about where I was.
Mike: Uh, how about... no phone?
Sue: I took Mom's sweater without asking!
Mike: [sighs] I'm kinda running out of things to take from you, Sue.
Sue: Well, sometimes after school, I like to go over to the soccer field and watch the guy mow the lawn.
Mike: All right. You can't do that... For two weeks. Matter of fact, that's kinda strange. Why don't you stop doing that altogether?
Sue: But wait. There's more! Look at this! [sobs] Brick and I did it! Oh, God! I just sold Brick down the river! What kind of a sister am I?! I should be punished for not supporting my brother! I should be punished for everything I ever did wrong because you guys are the best parents ever...
Quote from Sue
Sue: Dad! Please. There are a ton of reasons why I should be allowed to see this movie. Just hear me out. Number one, "I am very mature and have exhibited maturity in other aspects of my life, making me prepared to watch mature situations and adult themes." Number two, it stars my favorite actor, Taylor Lautner." I-I-I'll skip down a bit. Uh, 27...
Mike: Honey, you're not 17. It's against the law.
Sue: Just take my list. Peruse it at your leisure.
Mike: Sue, it's not happenin'. It doesn't matter if you have a hundred reasons why. Oh. Look at that. You do.
