There. Right there, Peg, is the problem with America. We've lost our spirit of self-reliance. Something's broken, call someone. Something's leaking, call someone. One of the kids suffers a ruptured appendix, call someone. Whatever happened to rugged American manhood?
Well we don't know yet, Dad. Kelly's tests haven't come back from the lab yet.
Al
Peg, I brought someone over to show that you don't need a high school diploma to be important. (gestures outside): Sir?
(the homeless man from "Oh, What a Feeling" and "Rock and Roll Girl" staggers in, holding out his hand)
So, are you really sick? You're not trying to get out of going to see my mother.
Al
Now, Peg. That hurts. You know how much I love that huge fat woman.
[Bud enters Bundy residence]
Oh good, Bud is back from the store. Did you get our gift for Grandma? Remember, it was one of those "larger women romance novels".
Yes, I remember. They were all sold out of The Pie Man Always Rings Twice, so I had to go with her second choice, The Red Fudge of Courage.
Al{on the phone}: Hello, Jim's Fish, Chips & Insurance? How much would it cost to add my son to the plan? How old? Let me see.
Al
Bud, how old are you?
Al{on the phone}: He is sixteen...What! If you think I'm gonna pay that much... you're as stupid as those cats you trap and call tuna...You know, when you insult my wife, Jim, you don't hurt me.
Al
Nothing I haven't said myself.
Al{on the phone}: Seriously Jim, I need to ask, is this the best you can do for a lifetime friend and someone who did not tell the police what your catch of the day really was? Oh ho, well if you want to be that way you can take your insurance and stuff it, all of it!
Al hangs up
Al
There! Al Bundy takes guff from no one!
Peg, Kelly & Bud{in unison}: Cheap, cheap, cheap!
Al, aren't you worried about being uninsured?
Al
Peg, we don't need insurance. Insurance is like marriage. You pay and pay, and never get anything back! Besides, the car isn't worth more than 100 bucks with both kids in it.
Gee, honey, you look like Tarzan...if he was old and gay.
Al
Well, Peg, if you were Jane, believe me, he would be.
