TV show quotes
Getting ready for the babies is kind of exciting, but it's scary too. Don't you think? Having two new people in the family will be a pretty big change. It's just been the seven of us for a while. Concerns? Thoughts? Fears? Anybody?
We know the drill, Dad. Two of you will leave for the hospital, and four of you will come home.
We've done this before.
I haven't, but I can follow along.
So the baby shower was fun?
Well, it didn't require police involvement but that is as much as I'm going to commit to.
I'm excited... but I'm also a little worried about these babies. I'm worried that... we don't make enough, we don't have the space enough, time enough...
I know. We have this conversation before every trip to the hospital.
We do?
Yeah. And afterwards, we share an inseparable bond that only this kind of anxiety can produce. It's our routine. Things are going to be really different but I'm always going to love you. That'll never change.
And you will always be everything I love and want to be when I grow up. But after a day like today, I..I..I worry about bringing new souls into this world at this time.
I'm not worried. Their brothers and sisters will make a difference. They'll make it better, and so will they.
(to Eric during labor) Stop touching me! That's what got us in this situation in the first place.
See my tummy? That's you.
Maybe I never should have come out.
But...look what you would've missed...riding on Daddy's shoulders...and Simon rocking you on the front porch...and Mary...giving you a bath in the kitchen sink.
My butt was a lot smaller then.
All of our...bottoms were a lot smaller then.
[after listening to Ruthie sing a depressing song] Ruthie, you are not a motherless child. Your mother is right here, listening to your beautiful song. But I'm a little busy now, and I could really use your help. You're a big sister now. That means you're more important than ever.
Why isn't Simon watching Ruthie?
Is Simon my new mommy?
Don't make me get Mom and Dad.
Ha! You couldn't get Mom and Dad away from the "Children of the Corn" if you tried!
It's just not like our son to do something like this.
Well, he's actually my stepson, but, you know, I feel like I gave birth to him. But I don't love what he's doing
He's letting his grades drop, cutting class... caught him hitchhiking the other day. Hitchhiking!
Well, I'm sure that...
We don't know where he goes. We don't know who his friends are anymore.
We thought you might have better insight into this than we do, you have experience.
You know our son as well as we do. Probably better.
I'm sorry. I have to apologize. I have two new babies at the house and my mind's just a blur. I-I'm sure I should know who you are, even if you're new to the church, but...
It's our fault. We were in such a hurry, I... I guess we just assumed...
We don't even go to your church.
Lou? Anything the matter?
No, no. I just didn't realize you were back from maternity leave.
Sorry to intrude.
Please forgive me.
Oh, he's one of our deacons who, uh, has his own office, but, anyway... I think you were about to introduce yourselves.
I'm sorry. I'm Norma and this is Fred Moon.
Moon? Your son is Jimmy Moon?
That's right. Lucy's old boyfriend. We really need your help.
We think Jimmy's doing drugs.
Why do we have to hurry?
I've got to pick up Ruthie, then I've got to drop you two at home, then I have to head over to the Junior High so I can make Simon look good, which is not gonna be easy.
You know he's just using you.
Babies, babies, babies. You'd think they never even saw a baby before. The way everyone goes ooh and aah if they even poop. It's not fair.
Forget it, that's not going to change, what has changed is my luck and I've got to change it back. Did you answer that chain letter or not?
One to Simon Camden, one to Master Simon Camden and one to Senor Simon Camden. That's Spanish.
You can't give me back my own chain letter. You're supposed to send it to three other people. The idea is to keep the chain going or bad luck will befall you.
Bad luck already befalled on me the day the babies were born.
Ditto.
I joined the army.
The United States army?
Yes, the United States army. The one with the guns and the wars!
Did they tell you you'll have to cut your hair?
Did they tell you those are real guns with real bullets, and you can get yourself shipped off to God knows where, and for what? Just to get your college education paid for?
[pause] How much would he get?
Well, I'm planning on four years. I'm gonna train as a pilot and they'll give me $50,000, and I'll be able to get a job as soon I get out.
Wow. 50 G's and a job?
Bullets! Very fast bullets coming at our son!
[After Simon wakes everyone up in the middle of the night looking for his Red Lightning ring]
Should we kill him now or in the morning?
[Sound of the twins crying]
Now!
[to the Teacher's Board] I was going to say that Jack Brenner's a friend a mine and I don't like what he did. Should he be punished? How? And how much? By whom? And who gets to decide?
I understand that you're helping Simon and Ruthie out with a little something.
I don't know what you're talking about.
[Annie kisses her on the cheek]
Thanks for helping my kids.
Thanks for sharing your kids.
Do you find find it odd that God talked to him and told him to come see me?
No. You do a pretty good job most of the time. Why wouldn't God recommend you?
