Frankie Quote #907
Quote from Frankie in The Safe
Frankie: [v.o.] So I'd gotten off to a bad start with my teacher. But if there's one thing I'd learned from working at Ehlert's, it was the fine art of sucking up.
Frankie: Hi. I know. Late again. What are the odds? But I made you some snickerdoodles.
Sandy Armwood: Oh. [chuckles] Look, everybody. Gingivitis on a plate. You know what those cookies tell me, Frankie? You do not respect the tooth.
Frankie: Oh, I do. I completely respect the tooth, so, so much.
Sandy Armwood: Ah. Well, good to hear it. And since you're not in your seat, why don't you take this one right here? Attagirl. There we go. Going down. Okay.
Frankie: Well, you know what? I think it would be better-
Sandy Armwood: Wowzers! You have some seriously, seriously inflamed gums.
Frankie: Really?
Sandy Armwood: I see you had a couple of those cookies in the car, too, huh? Everybody, gather around! This is an excellent example of the oral carelessness we've been discussing today. Now I want everyone to reach in there and feel that frenum.

Quote from Axl
Axl: Ugh! It's 10:00 and I still have 26 more pages! Mom, you gotta help me study. Here... It's the constitutional amendments. Just so you know, those are Roman numerals. Turns out they're not just for Super Bowls.
Quote from Brick
[Brick holds a stethoscope to the safe as he turns the dial]
Sue: What are you doing?
Brick: Shh! I saw this on Safe Crackers.
Sue: Did it work?
Brick: I don't know. After five minutes, I switched over to Whale Wars. But I do feel fairly confident that I can commandeer a Japanese harpoon ship.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: Let me explain. This wouldn't happen under normal circumstances, but my son and I were taking drugs together...
Sandy Armwood: [sighs] Frankie... Isn't it time? Isn't it time you accept the fact that you don't have what it takes to make it in the high-pressure world of dental assisting? Why don't you do yourself a favor? Why don't you walk out that door and find something more your speed, like... running a hair extension kiosk at the mall?
Frankie: You think I'm just gonna walk out of here? That I'm just gonna quit because you told me to? Well, let me tell you something about myself I... am a quitter. A lifelong quitter. Girl Scouts? Quit. Piano lessons when they started with two hands? Quit. Working out at Curves? Quit in the middle of signing up for the membership. Every volunteer thing at my kids' school, quit, quit, quit. Oh, and I only got through 20 Shades of Grey. So if I quit-- and yeah, I might if it gets too hard I'm gonna do it on my terms. It might be tomorrow. It might be next week. It might be the week after! But definitely not today.
Sandy Armwood: Okay.
