“Look, there must be some reason Jake never...” – ALF, ALF ... TV Quotes Database

Look, there must be some reason Jake never told me about his mother. We're best friends! Blood brothers! 2 sides of the same double-stuffed Oreo. I think in some cultures we'd be considered engaged.

Willie

Perhaps with you around, he found it difficult to get a word in edgewise.

ALF

Hardy-har. For your information, Jake tells me everything. About how his father's in jail about how he flunked his last math test about how Trevor and Raquel like to sometimes dress up like Norwegian. [Willie and Kate stare at him] Never mind.

[the doorbell rings]

Raquel

[from outside] Yoo-hoo! It's Raquel!

ALF

Yoo-hoo. Tell her we're not home.

Willie

Bye, ALF.

ALF

Let her in. I'll pretend I'm a fuzzy lamp.

Kate

You can pretend that in the kitchen.

ALF

Fine. Which way is the kitchen? Hey, what do you want from a lamp?

Oh, hi, Raquel.

Willie, Kate.

Hello, Raquel.

I'd like you to meet my sister-in-law, Elaine Ochmonek. She's Jake's mother. Elaine, this is Willie Tanner and his wife Kate. She's pregnant.

EElaine

I see that.

Willie

Gee, it's nice to meet you.

EElaine

Please, come in, come in. We are so fond of Jake. Oh, well, he talks about his-his friends the Tanners, all the time. Although, sometimes he does stop rather abruptly in the middle of a sentence.

Willie

Well, don't we all just- Don't we all just do that now and again?

Raquel

No.

EElaine

I really appreciate everything you've done for Jake. It's been hard on him being away from all his friends in New York.

Kate

Oh, he's become like one of the family. Maybe we can all get together sometime while you're visiting.

Raquel

What a lovely idea. Say, here for dinner, tomorrow 7:30?

Kate

Uh, well.
