Brick Quote #410

Quote from Brick in The Smile

Frankie: [before Brick says anything] No.
Brick: But this kid in my class, Brian Becker, got one, and now everybody flocks around him. And he's got a restless leg, and he suffers from early onset alopecia. I'm just saying, you guys are always on me to make friends.
Frankie: Yeah, it's a great way to make friends, but you're not getting an iPad.
[cut to:]
Brick: So I was talking to mom about the iPad, and she thinks it'd be a great way for me to make friends.
Mike: Friends? I thought you wanted this thing for school.
[cut to:]
Brick: Dad liked your friend idea, but he thinks the iPad should be used more for school.
Frankie: You're doing fine in school.
Brick: Yeah, but in middle school, the workload really picks up.
Frankie: Well, if it's for middle school, we'll talk about it when you get to middle school.
[cut to:]
Brick: Mom says she sees it as more of a middle school thing.
Mike: Yeah, well, middle school is a long way off, isn't it?

Quote from Axl

Frankie: [v.o.] So while Mike and I had been harassing the loyal servants of the US Postal Service, turns out it wasn't the '80s anymore, and the news we were all waiting for was coming over a different kind of mail. [cell phone buzzes]
Axl: Yes! I'm in! Oh, my God! I just got an official e-mail from East Indiana State. It's official! I'm in! Oh, my God. That's it! I'm outta here! So long, suckers! East Indiana State freshmen rule! [high-pitched voice] Ha ha ha ha! Whoo! [exits and then returns] I still have to graduate, don't I? [teacher nods]

Quote from Mike

Brick: Dad, can you please get me an iPad?
Mike: I'm heating up my coffee with a hair dryer. What do you think?
Brick: I don't think you realize what getting me an iPad would mean. For example, when we go on trips, you wouldn't have to lug around all my books. Remember that time you threw out your back while picking up my book bag?
Mike: The answer's still no, but thanks for reminding me I'm old.

Quote from Frankie

Brick: So the iPad? Yes or no?
Frankie: Brick, the only way you're getting an iPad is if you're in Steve Jobs' will.
