Daniel Stopframe quotes from Moral Orel

Orel

Coach Stopframe?

Oh, hi, Orel.

Orel

Whatcha got there?

Mmm, nothing, just a picture. Oh, hey, Orel, do you think that you could get me a little bit of your dad's hair?

Orel

Sure! What for?

Well, I...want to buy him a new comb and I need to see what gauge teeth to get on it.

Clay

Orel, are you planning to buy me a new comb?

Clay

Well, it was either that or you're gonna put a Satanic spell on me. And that's just not in your character.

Greetings. I am Flygron. Come in and have some pizza.

Orel

Yum! [Runs inside]

Uh, who's the kid?

He's the virgin.

What? That's totally against the law.

But it's for the ritual.

Don't you know any legal virgins?

Hadn't crossed my mind, really.

Ugh, I cannot get naked with these people.

Yeah, not with the kid around anyway and what not.

Orel

Coach?

(under his breath, while looking at a picture of Clay) Oh, great, his son.

Orel

Can I ask you something?

Look, Orel, just get out of-- (he looks at Orel and sees his face instead of Clay's) Orel, what's wrong with your face?

It looks... just like you.

Orel

Oh yeah, it's been like that for a while now.

Orel

And then he told everyone that I accidentally shot myself, or the bear shot me.

Or that you got between the bear and him.

Orel

Oh... a new one, I guess.

He's got a million of them, kid.

Orel

Coach, you like my dad the way my mom likes my dad, don't you?

Your mom likes your dad?

Orel

Oh, it's no use. You can't show me what there is to honour my father about. Because there's nothing honourable about him!

Orel, somehow, in his own blundering way, your father made you. And that's honourable.

Clay

What are you doing here with my son?!

Orel

Stop!

Clay

The thought of you two together makes my skin crawl!

Orel

Please! All we were doing was...having a nice time. For the first Christmas in...I don't know how long. I felt relaxed and full of joy.

Clay

This...is...rape! You raped my son!

Bloberta

What?

Clay

With niceness, in order to get to me! Well, it worked, you got to me! Now you stay away from him! He's not yours, I am! [He stops, realizing what he's just said] I mean-- he's mine, my son! Oh, I miss you..., Orel. I need you in my life..., Orel. And I...I...I...love you.

Bloberta

[Bitterly] We should go.

Clay

I love you, I love you, I love you..., Orel.

Orel

Come on, dad, it's late.

Clay

No! [He takes a step towards Stopframe, but cracks a picture of the two]

He's right. It's too late.

Clay

Right. [he turns to leave]

I had fun. [Clay turns around, only to see Stopframe smiling with Orel. Heartbroken, he leaves with his family, but leaves behind the stuffed bear. Stopframe strokes it.] Well, how are you at trimming?
