Lines by Porter Scavo 10
Yeah, a million years ago, anything else?
Ooh, Dad called a family meeting.
Why? We don't even like living together.
And you know who that big guy is? Kevin McDurmot, the guy called me 'Jesus' for a year cause I wore sandals for one day! If he sees me
No. I'm not gonna wait on a kid who's gonna make fun of me on Monday morning. It's humiliating enough having to work here.
Congratulations on ruining my life. If you see me on campus you're not allowed to talk to me.
We finished upstairs, Ana!
I'm Porter.
When did Susan get here?
Scenes with Porter Scavo 11
Do you know what psychological warfare is?
No.
Too bad for you.
How old are you?
Porter (also referring to his twin brother): We're 6.
And how old are you?
5.
Wow, your mother just pops them out, doesn't she?
How old are you?
How old do you think?
150.
Porter, what did I tell you?
But I'm hungry.
Well, then, I will fix you a very nice bowl of peaches and cottage cheese.
Ew, barf.
Don't be common, young man.
How long will Daddy be gone?
Well, that sorta depends on Daddy.
Are you two mad at each other?
Yeah, a little, but that's okay. We still love each other very much, but like kids, sometimes grown-ups throw tantrums and need a time-out.
Why can't he take a time-out in his room?
Cause he decided to take it in his pizza place.
No fair, that sounds fun!
Not this pizza place, it's a rat hole. But once your dad comes to his senses and stops being petulant, he'll come home.
What's petulant?
It means childish, stubborn, careless with my money and your futures.
Huh?
It's a grown-up word, and when daddy comes home, he'll learn a new one: grovel!
[Lynette is giving dinner to the kids, Kayla walks over toward the TV with hers]
Kayla, where are you going?
To watch TV.
Oh, sweetie, we don't watch TV during dinner.
But my show is on.
Well, I'm sorry, those are the rules.
My mommy let me.
Just this once.
[The twins give Lynette 'What gives?' looks, Parker crosses his arms]
Ok, ok, I know what you're thinking, but Kayla's going through a hard time right now, come and sit down. Letting her watch TV is like me letting you eat ice cream when you're sick.
But she's not sick.
That's true, but she's sad.
I'm sad, I can't watch TV!
Eat your tacos.
[Kids give each other looks of agreement and get up to go over to the TV] Wow, wow, wow, sit your butts down.
It's not fair.
I don't care, we have rules.
Well she gets to!
She's special, now sit down! Come on.
Does she get dessert too?
Kayla: Of course I do.
