Axl Quote #559
Quote from Axl in The Potato
Frankie: [v.o.] So, Axl, in a desperate moment, did something he'd never done before he took his parents' advice.
Axl: [to Kenny] Whoa! Nice shot! You've got some mad skills. [chuckles] Hey. So, before you destroy another civilization, I was thinking maybe we could, uh, you know, chat a little. I mean, what's the use of getting randomly assigned to a guy if you can't get to know him, am I right? Okay. Oh! Here's an idea... what do you say we, uh, clean this place up a little, hmm? I'll get it started. Okay. Huh. Well, I believe these bad boys are yours. [picks up white underpants with a bat] So, why don't I just start a pile for you? There we go. Uh, hey! You done with this old dental floss, or... Yuck. Yeah. Ew. On second thought... It's getting pretty late. I think I'm gonna catch some Z's. Whoo! Hey. You seen my pillow anywhere, or... Oh. You're sitting on it. [chuckles] Uh... if I could just... That's cool. I'll just ball up some of these old, dirty clothes instead. [computer game flashes and sounds]

Quote from Sue
Sue: Okay. I think I figured out a system for the three of us to share two cars.
Frankie: Sue.
Sue: Just hear me out. I promise you guys won't be inconvenienced at all.
Mike: You're already wrong, but go ahead.
Sue: All righty. Dad, you're the blue line, Mom, you're the red line, and I'm the green car keys. On Monday, I'll drive Mom to work, and Dad will pick her up on his way home from the quarry. Then, after Wrestlerette practice, I'll grab Brick from the library, and Dad will drop Mom at the Frugal Hoosier on his way to his softball game. Now, Tuesday might get a little complicated. It involves four different drop-offs, and Brick would have to drive, but only for one block.
Quote from Axl
Axl: There you are... finally!
Frankie: Axl, what's going on? Why aren't you at college?
Axl: I have the world's worst roommate. I'm not kidding. The guy is a total pig. He leaves his crap everywhere.
Frankie: Really?
Axl: And he farts constantly, even though he's like two feet from my head!
Sue: Really?
Axl: It's impossible rooming with the guy! He acts like I don't even exist.
Brick: Really?
Mike: Does he eat all your food?
Axl: Yes.
Quote from Sue
Sue: I am so glad you guys are here. Brad and I canvassed the mall looking for job applications, and I really need help narrowing down my choices. Okay, Tacos Olé has super-cool uniforms, but the Yamamoto Beef Bowl smells amazing! This is so hard! It's just like Sophie's choice. My friend Sophie is getting a puppy for her birthday, and she can't decide between a Corgi and a Beagle.
Frankie: You know, Sue, there's also a movie called Sophie's Choice.
Sue: Oh, really?! Was it about dogs? Was it sad? Oh, wait... don't spoil it for me. I'm gonna go start filling out these job applications. And, you know, a lot of these don't have space for a personal essay. I guess I'll just attach my own.
