(after Luanne explains Tae-Bo): Oh, it's dancing.
Bobby HillHmm. That sounds --
No.
I see the Buffalo, I see the Indian! (slows down) I am the Indian. (snoring)
(groans) Dang it.
Dad, where the Hell are you? DAD!
Bobby HillYour dad's not coming. He's rolling around on the ground and eating bark and my dad is screaming, "Dang it!" a lot.
This trip is so... SUCKS! You know what the land is tell me? WRECK STUFF!
Bobby HillWhat are YOU DOING?!? THAT'S YOUR DAD'S SLEEPING BAG!
HA! HA! LOOK AT IT BURN!
Bobby[v.o.] Can you pick me up? I'm at the Mocha Bean!
The Mocha Bean? Right by the starting line?
You were gone all afternoon and you only walked half a mile?
BobbyMaybe when it gets to two miles, it flips over.
BobbyDad I need new jeans. $100 ought to cover it.
What is wrong with the trousers you have? Did you make cut-offs again?
BobbyNo Dad, I am trying to fit in at school. This is what the in-crowd wears.
Bobby shows Hank a catalog where the models are wearing ripped jeans
No way I am spending $100 for some asinine jeans that look like someone is too lazy to break them in.
BobbySo that is it? I do not have a say in what I get to wear.
Not when I am paying for it.
Bobby Hill(wrapped around in guitar spinning by a ZZ Top guy) Do It Again, Do it again!
Stop spinning my son!
Hey Bobby. How was the surf today? Did Boomhauer do his famous flamingo? That's when he stands on one leg, that's not easy to do, even on the ground.
BobbyNo, all he did was fall flat on his face and embarrass himself, and us by association, we didn't even get to ride the wave.
Boomhauer was embarrassed? I don't know what the heck's going on here but someone needs to get their asses kicked.
BobbyFinally. Yes. Thank you. It's time to kick their local asses!
Bobby, language. But, yes. I am going to kick their asses.
[Presses his tongs into the steak cooking on the grill] Firm but with a little give. Yup, these are medium-rare.
BobbyWhat if somebody wants theirs well-done?
We ask them politely, yet firmly, to leave.
Bobby HillDad, I'm confused. So you should trust people until they betray you, and then try to blow them up?
The only thing I'm guilty of is trusting you. Well, I'll tell you one thing: I may go to jail, but I’ve zipped my lips for the last time.
About that science teacher of yours, does he ever talk about, uh, going green?
BobbyI don't know. Do you ever talk about propane? My point is, he talks about all the time.
[last lines]
When you open a pocket knife, you need to keep your hand...
BobbyOw!
You okay? Uh, you might want to hold your hand above your head.
Hello.
Bobby HillHello? That's all you got? Just what the heck is going on?
What do you mean? We're finishing dinner. We'll be there to pick you up at 9:00.
Bobby HillOh, really? Well, you might want to check your watch, buddy boy. It's 10:30!
(realizes the watch was 10:30) Oh, my God. Peggy, it's 10:30!
(Gasps) Where's Bobby?
Bobby, where are you?
Bobby HillI'm at the Get In, Get Out. I hope you're happy. I'm just prostitutes by panty hose!
He's at the Get In, Get Out! (Peggy gasps and runs out to the emergency door.)
What's wrong, Chef Bobby? You look paler than usual. Like scared mayonnaise.
BobbyOh man, my parents want a tour of the place, and I haven't told my dad that I use Japanese Binchotan coals to cook instead of propane.
So what?
BobbyEmilio, my dad loves four things in life: America, my mom, me, and propane, and when I was a kid, depending on the week, propane would be above me on the list.
So let's take a look at that propane setup.
BobbyUh, dad...
[noticing charcoal in the grill] Charcoal? Ohh, I get it. This is just for show. Lure in the out-of-towners. The propane's in the back, right?
BobbyDad, dad, dad! I use charcoal to cook. Not propane.
[everyone gasps]
Here we go...
What? But we went over the different systems for hours over the phone! Those were some of the best times we ever spent together. Were all those "uh-huhs" you said after every point I made just lies?
BobbyNo, I considered propane.
Considered?! It gets worse.
