Adult Dean Quote #57
Quote from Adult Dean in Home for Christmas
Bill: Look who I found. [Lillian squeals]
Adult Dean: Two years ago, the Williams family was ripped apart. Tonight, we were made whole again. My brother Bruce finished his tour of duty in Vietnam, and he was coming home, just in time for Christmas.
Bruce: Uh, excuse me, sir. Have you seen Dean Williams? He's my little brother, about this tall. [laughter] [hugs Dean] It's good to see you, man.
Adult Dean: I didn't expect him to look so different. Maybe it was the uniform, or maybe it was just that two years had passed since I'd seen him. Whatever the reason, Bruce was not the same teenager who left this house. He was a man. I mean, he was almost as tall as Kim.

Quote from Adult Dean
Adult Dean: But what if they were right? What if guys don't come back from Vietnam the same? The next morning, I decided I needed to pay extra-close attention to my brother. Never let him leave my sight, examine every word and action to make sure he's sane.
[As Dean reaches for the last rasher of bacon, Kim grabs it]
Kim: Ooh, I'll take that.
Bruce: Mm. I'll take that. [hands it to Dean]
Adult Dean: Bruce brought the balance of power back to the house. Nothing crazy about that.
[As Bill goes to reach for the last biscuit, Bruce grabs it for himself]
Bruce: I'll take that too.
Adult Dean: Nope, he was clearly bat[bleep] crazy.
Quote from Adult Dean
Adult Dean: Yep, that's an electric saw. It was 1968. There were a bunch of kids walking around missing a couple of fingers.
Quote from Cory
Dean: I don't know what you guys are talking about. That's just a movie.
Norman: Nope. Those guys don't come back the same.
Cory: He's right, Dean. My mama's cousin came back from Vietnam, and now everybody says he's on the junk.
Brad: What's "the junk"?
Cory: I don't really know. But whatever it is, it makes your grandma lock up her rings.
