Adult Dean Quote #63
Quote from Adult Dean in Lads and Ladies and Us
Adult Dean: One of the great things about my mom was how much she invested in us when we were little. She was like that for all of us. But she and Kim had things in common that she didn't have with me and my brother Bruce. A few years later, Bruce and I destroyed that tea set wrestling around in the family room. Kim adored mama. She wanted to be just like her. And mama loved the special bond they shared. Then the teen years hit.
Kim: You think I'm gonna wear this? Am I moving to a convent?
Lillian: No.
Adult Dean: It started out as fights about clothes. Then makeup, then curfew. Pretty soon it felt like they were fighting about everything. My dad understood this was a typical pattern for girls and their moms. Unfortunately, I didn't.
Dean: This is so crazy. They argue so much 'cause they're just alike.
[Lillian and Kim stop arguing and glare at Dean]
Bill: [sighs]
[fantasy: Bill escapes from kitchen on a jet pack]
Adult Dean: Like my dad, I eventually learned to stay out of it. That's just the way things were.

Quote from Lillian
Lillian: Did you hear what she said about "good hair"? Like anybody's hair could stay good out in this type of humidity for hours.
Vivian: I did. It was right after she said, "We only take a certain type of family into Lads and Ladies." I see a whole lot of milk chocolate out here and not a lot of dark chocolate.
Lillian: Mm-hmm.
Quote from Cory
Cory: Hey, I'm not gonna lie. I felt a little left out last time, so I spent all night studying up on the planets. Did you know that Pluto is so far out there that from there, the sun just looks like a regular star? Also, did you know that we have a library by where we live?
Adult Dean: Wait a minute, Cory's an astronomer all of a sudden?
Dean: Hey, you know how sports is your thing?
Cory: Mm-hmm.
Dean: Maybe leave the planets to me.
Cory: Okay. Unless there's a cute girl out there. Then the Pluto thing's coming back out.
Adult Dean: Cory was probably the only kid in the world who could make a pick-up line about Pluto work.
Quote from Bill
Bill: Nobody else is gonna talk about how Kim's dress is cut too low? I can see the girl's heart beat.
Kim: Daddy! Ugh!
Bill: You better be walking off to get another dress.
