Virginia[to Jimmy] I'm allowed to criticize you. I made you. You're my mistake.
Virginia[to Kate] I am fine with an Asian Jesus, but let's be real here: that's a 3-year-old fat kid.
VirginiaWell, I couldn't have her come over and see what a mess my life was. You both had boots on your head.
Virginia[to Gary] I'm sure somewhere out there there is a woman that wants to be lured into your apartment to find you naked. Maybe you should try Greg's List!
Virginia[to Jimmy after he realizes he used to know how to perform] Okay, fine... at one point in your life, you might have been a little... amazingly talented.
VirginiaBurt, I will steal coins from a fountain, I'll even do clinical drug trials again, as long as I'm not the placebo; I don't like feeling tricked. But there is no amount of gold that's worth rummaging through that lady's butt custard.
VirginiaWhat about a TV channel just for news? Wait - they'll have to fill up too many hours and resort to sensationalizing non-issues and stirring up partisan bickering. Scratch that idea. It sucks.
VirginiaChild stars go downhill no matter how good they act. They could star in a Spielberg movie and still end up playing the nutty mom on some sitcom.
VirginiaObama made a law where everybody has to have affordable car insurance. It's called Obama-Car.
VirginiaYou two are married now. Lying and being deceitful to get information out of him is your job, not mine.
Hey, I thought I talked to you about this. You can't smoke around the baby.
VirginiaJimmy, smoke rises. She's not gonna be tall enough to breathe it for a long time.
[Burt has just placed Maw Maw in the smoking bubble he created.]
VirginiaThe hell is that?
I can't get her to quit. She burns me every time I bring it up, so I built her a bubble.
[Maw Maw smacks him from inside the bubble.]
It's loosely based off the plans of cousin Mike had when he built in the walk in bong and technically as long as she stays in here, there's no smoke in the house. So you have to quit.
VirginiaNo I don't. If she gets a bubble, I want a bubble.
[about Maw Maw] Hey, have you seen this? As long as I have this song playing, she can't lose.
VirginiaI know. It's weird how music kicks in certain things in her brain, like the other day I found out "America the Beautiful" makes her poop faster.
Virginia[Upon discovering Hope is trapped in the greenhouse] I'm freaking out a little bit here, Burt. I'm not doing well with this. Think of something. How are we gonna fix this? Think.
You know I can't think on demand like that.
VirginiaThink!
Stop saying think! Every time you say think all I can think is the word think-
VirginiaAll right, all right!
-And it fills up my whole brain. Think, think, think. It keeps changing colors and sizes, I can't get past it!
Jimmy, are you missing a clump of hair in this photo?
VirginiaYes, he is. He ate it.
Excuse me?
Someone stressed me out so much that I started pulling out my hair and eating it as a nervous twitch.
You look awful. Why didn't you just shave your head?
VirginiaOh god no. He's a birthmark on his head that looks like a big old...
Florida. Shaped like Florida... Florida with balls.
