Well, Bridget broke up with him [Donny] on that tape. (Everyone looks shocked) Oh no! I thought everyone knew!
FFred
Your daughter broke up with our Donny...
MEMary Ellen
...On our video tape?
You stole Donny's harmony part?!
S2Donny Goes AWOL
Donny, you went AWOL? This could have serious consequences!
DDonny
I don't care! I'd face a thousand firing squads for Bridget!
And you realize I'm going to have to tell your parents about this.
DDonny
Oh, no, don't do that! They'll kill me!
(When Paul is checking messages on the answering machine)
FMFirst Message
Hey, neighbor! Fred and Mary Ellen Doyle...
SMSecond Message
Hey, neighbor! Fred and Mary Ellen Doyle...
TMThird Message
Hey, neighbor! Fred and Mary Ellen Doyle...
You know, you could return one of Fred's calls!
I can't talk to you when you're like this! I swear, he would keep calling even if I changed the outgoing message to, "Doyle, you idiot, stop calling!"
(The doorbell rings and Paul answers it)
FFred
Hey, neighbor! Kept trying to call, but I think something's wrong with your machine.
There's something wrong with the answering machine? (starts to play Fred's message)
Rory, you fixed it!
But...
I said, YOU FIXED IT!!!
Bridget (to Donny): You were in a fight with my dad?
DDonny
It wasn't so much a fight as-
That is so cool.
DDonny
A battle to the death
S2Goodbye (1)
(on the phone) Hello? Yeah, this is Mrs. Hennessy.
(The girls come downstairs)
Gosh, you are so jealous.
Oh, please, I debuted at number two on the hot list.
Yeah, but she didn't have to do the things you did to get on it.
(The kids try to get Cate's attention, but Cate has just received the heartbreaking news and is in a state of shock)
(nervously) Mom?
(fighting back tears) My... my keys, where are my keys?
Mom, what's going on?
Oh, my... (dashes out the back door)
RKRory, Kerry, Bridget
(uneasily) Mom? Mom!
Bridge? Grandma and Gramps are here.
Is Dad with them?
No.
Well, then I really don't give a damn.
NNick
(to Cate) You know I have four daughters, I couldn't in a million years work at home. Paul said he never knew how he did it, he just knew why, he loved his family.
S2Goodbye (2)
The last words I said to Dad were, "I hate you."
Oh...
(guilt-ridden) He wouldn't let me borrow his stupid car, and I said "I hate you." I had my dad, and the last thing I ever said to him was "I hate you."
Aw, honey. I think those were the first words you said to him, also.
My last words were an insult, too. He was wearing his Michigan sweatshirt with chinos, and I told him there weren't enough Queer Eyes in all of San Francisco to help him.
(Cate chuckles)
Well, I sent him to the store for milk, so the last thing he heard out of me was, "Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah." You know what his last words to me were? "Hasta la vista, baby."
S2What Dad Would Want
Cate (to Rory): You know a lot of times people take orange balls similar to this one outside and throw them at basketball hoops.
Okay, but bring it back.
Jim (to Cate): They mean well, honey.
Yeah, I know they mean well, but I'm starting to feel like I'm in some kind of circus where the price of admission is a casserole. Step right up and see the grieving widow.
S2The First Thanksgiving
Cate (to Rory): What is going on with you and your sisters?
I'm trying to protect them.
Aww, that's sweet.
I'm afraid that they are going to turn into big fat whores!
OK. Not so sweet.
Cate (to Rory): Honey, your job is to be a 14-year-old boy and a pain in the butt.
I can do that!
Kerry (to Bridget): So, that's all you can think of to be thankful for? That you got the good hair?
No, I said it's what I'm most thankful for.
And, what about you, Cate? What are you thankful for?
Well, I'm thankful for my wonderful children, and for my great dad and my mom even though she couldn't be here.
That's what I'm thankful for.
S2The Story of Anne Frank and Skeevy
(Bridget has scored the lead role of Anne Frank, and Kerry isn't happy)
(to Kerry) Now look, we should all be supportive. We should be celebrating. Your sister got the lead in... (in disbelief) Anne Frank?
Jim (to Rory): Aren't you a little old to be playing with a dummy?
SSkeevy
Aren't you a little old?
