Sue Quote #564
Quote from Sue in The Loneliest Locker
Frankie: Sue, I am so, so sorry.
Sue: You said you'd come before the curtain came up, and you didn't. You know, even Axl came, and he didn't have to. He was just being nice.
Frankie: Look, I tried, Sue. I really did. But I just started this job, and I can't get fired, okay?
Sue: Why did you even take this job, anyway?! You're already so busy!
Frankie: Well, it's not like I wanted...
Sue: Oh! You're missing my whole senior year! You're just missing everything.
Frankie: You want to know why, Sue? Do you want to know why? Because I don't know how we're gonna pay for your college, all right? I mean, I am trying really hard here to embrace the possible, but you know what?
It's just getting harder and harder because you want to go to all these great and awesome places, and we want to send you there, but to tell you the truth, I just don't know how it's gonna happen. I just don't know at all. [sighs]
Mike: I wanted to tell you at Chili's.
Sue: Look, I know. I know we can't afford any of those schools. I was just talking and dreaming and stuff, for fun. But I would never want to do anything that would make you guys have to work harder. You guys work so hard already. But I love you, and honestly, honestly, honestly, please don't kill yourself for me. Whatever happens, I am gonna be fine.

Quote from Brick
Brick: I can't believe you did this. I could have been a professional basketball man. You're always on me 'cause my nose is buried in a book, but turns out, it's all your fault. All because you didn't want your son to play with his toys. Sad.
Frankie: Look, you played with plenty of toys. Those were just the loud, annoying, obnoxious ones I couldn't stand to hear anymore after the first 500 beep-beeps, ding-dings, and woo-woo-woos.
Brick: Well, seeing how these were ripped from me at such a young age, I'm now going to make up for a lot of lost time. Come on, old friends. [toy siren wails]
Automated Voice: Konnichiwa.
Mike: Ah, crap, he found the noisy toys.
Quote from Frankie
Brick: Hello, Mother. Look what I found in the basement. Remember this? [toy siren wails] [Frankie chuckles nervously] You said these disappeared.
Frankie: Well, they did...
Frankie: [v.o.] With a little help from me.
[flashback to Frankie taking young Brick's guitar away from him as he slept]
[flashback to young Brick playing with his speaking caterpillar:]
Automated Voice: "A." "A." "A."
[as young Brick turns to take a sip of his juice box, Frankie grabs the toy]
[flashback to Brick playing with a basketball toy:]
Automated Voice: Nothing but net. Nothing but net.
Frankie: Hey, you know what's fun? Reading.
