‘The Award’

Season 5, Episode 14 -  Aired February 26, 2014

Frankie discovers that the quarry is honoring Mike with an award for twenty years of service, but Mike is reluctant to attend the ceremony. Sue tries to get the high school students to know each other after she is mistakenly sat on by a guy who didn't even realize she was on the chair. Meanwhile, Axl searches for a mystery girl who left a message on his phone, and Brick gets another box of his cousins' hand-me-downs.

Quote from Sue

Frankie: How are you doing, Sue?
Sue: There was a cousin clothes box out front, and Brick hid it in the laundry room! I'm sorry, Brick. I held out as long as I could. She asked me a direct question.
Brick: Oh, come on. I hate the cousins box. All the hand-me-downs smell like cat pee and beer.
Frankie: Have you even bothered to look in this? Well, I don't know what you're complaining about. There's a ton of good stuff in here.

Quote from Brick

Brick: Am I crazy or am I rocking this suit? I don't think I've ever seen myself look so sharp. Let's see who makes fun of me at school now. [walks off]
Mike: I'm gonna go with everybody.

Quote from Axl

Frankie: [v.o.] So Axl finally had a subject he was interested in finding a mystery girl he couldn't remember meeting at a party he couldn't remember going to a search that led him to the door of the fourth floor hottie.
Axl: Ooh, hey. Hi. Um, I don't know if you remember me-- Axl. Apparently, we, uh, danced last night. I may have given you my number. You may have, uh, used that number.
Girl #1: Oh, my God! It's second floor mirror dude!
Hutch: Not her.
Girl #1: Oh! I remember you! Susanna, Kelly, the second floor mirror dude is here!
Axl: Okay, I was wearing my skinny jeans, so I did not know it was me!

Quote from Brick

Frankie: Brick, are you warm enough?
Brick: Oh, definitely. An unexpected bonus of looking like a million bucks I've discovered that petroleum-based fabrics really hold in the heat.

Quote from Sue

Sue: Well, Hands Across Orson High was a ginormous success... if that success is measured by the inspiration it gave me to work harder.

Quote from Sue

Sue: Okay, so, Hands Across Orson High was not a complete success, but I've gone back to my original concept, which got me in to JP-LaMix-It-Up Mondays. What if the popular kids were forced to each lunch with the less-popular kids. Sprinkle in some D tablers with some A tablers, and we all end up C-pluses.
[cut to:]
Brian: Um, is this table 6?
Sue: Ooh, mm-hmm. You guys, this is Brian the guy who inspired this whole shebang. I am Sue Heck. The girl you sat on. The Ukrainian seat stealer.
Brian: Oh, hey.
Sue: Well, this is great, isn't it? Isn't this fun?
Courtney: Miss you!
Debbie: Miss you!
Sue: Look, it's totally natural for things to be a little awkward at first. So that's why I brought the conversation hat to help out. Ooh, good one. "Who's your best friend? Your Mom or your Dad?"

Quote from Axl

Frankie: [v.o.] So while Sue was busy trying to drum up a conversation, Axl would have been happy with just one word.
Axl: Excuse me. How would you pronounce this word?
Woman: I have mace.
[later:]
Axl: If you were really, really jealous, you'd be what with envy?
Woman: Green?
Axl: What? It's not orange?
[later:]
Hutch: [foreign accent] In my country, we call this "Ugaga." What you call here? You do not know? No? Okay.

Quote from Sue

Sue: I really had such high hopes for Mix-It-Up Mondays. Eh, I guess there's always gonna be an us and a them. I guess that's just the way it is.
Courtney: Brad, you want to come to the new brownie place with us? Deb says we have to hang 'cause you are hilarious!
Brad: Wow! Make new friends, but keep the old. See you tomorrow.
Carly: Oh! I got to go, too. I sat by the space mates yesterday, and they're not as nerdy as we thought. We're gonna go jump on the gym mats and act like we're in zero gravity.
Brian: Beep-beep! Molly, say hi to Ukraine.

Quote from Darrin

Sue: Oh, hi, Darrin. Come in.
Darrin: Sorry it's taken me so long to get over here. I had a midterm. But the good news is I got a B-plus, so I should be able to fix your air conditioner now.
Sue: Okay. You know where it's at.

Quote from Axl

Axl: [groans] What am I gonna do, Kenny? Thoughts? Ideas? If you feel for me, just keep staring at your computer. Great. Thanks for the support.
