All S1 S2 S3 S4 S5

S1Mrs. Finnerty, You've Got a Lovely Daughter

Jimmy (as he watches Lily & her friends perform "Big Spender"): I don't know why, but I want to give that one my allowance.

S1Love Child

Jimmy (to Lily): What's the matter with you?

I just found out I'm a bastard.

Don't worry, Dad says his boss is too.

S1 E1Lily B. Good

Dad said we couldn't get a cable box, they're too expensive.

Your dad and I live in two different worlds.

Uncle Eddie, it's stolen isn't it?

'Stolen' would be a word from your dad's world.

[referring to Sean throwing chicken at a car when he sees Brad and Lily making out in it]

[giggles]

It's not funny! I didn't know what else to do.

How is throwing chicken even an option?!

Walt, why are my children on a chain gang?

I am teaching these boys how to dig a hole

Why?

A good hole can serve a boy in a lot of ways. It helps them focus, lets them sweat, and makes them appreciate a warm bed at night.

How much is there to teach about a hole?

That's the kind of attitude that leads to substandard holes.

Well there was more than just chicken.

Biscuits?

NO, no.

So you still have the biscuits?

No, there were no biscuits! I'm talking about an additional incident.

I can't believe you didn't get biscuits, they come with the chicken.

I didn't get any biscuits! Look I went out to get a bucket of chicken, I got a bucket of chicken.

You would have had to specifically asked them to leave the biscuits out!

S2Baby, You Can't Drive My Car

Sean (about Lily): Only three more years...

Til she goes away to college?

No. Until she can be tried as an adult.

(After finding out Brad took the car)

He's the last person I'd suspect!

Yeah, he's so nice!

Plus, he's such a doofus.

This is why I don't tell you things, cuz you over react!

I am not over-reacting. The appropriate reaction would be to swing you around by your hair!

Walt (to Brad): We're just gonna go have a little sit-down with your old man.

He's gonna kick my ass!

That salad shooter? He doesn't have the stones.

I don't know what that means.

I'll explain it to you on the way out.

S2Dream On

Walt (to Sean): You gotta learn to control your frustrations.

This from the man who spent half his life screaming at appliances.

I was hoping for more from you.

(When Walt pours some Apple Cider for himself and Henry)

This tastes funny.

Whoa! This cider's turned

Turned into what?

Into grown up cider.

I don't like it.

Well, that's good because we have a family history of liking it.

S2Smoke on the Daughter

Ooh, an armoire.

That's what they call it.

(in French accent) Oh, then we should buy this "armoire"' and put it in the "boudoir" next to the "toilette". Ooh-la-la.
