How would you feel if I came into your room and suddenly started throwing chalk around?
I'd be devastated. (said in a deadpan manner)
Hattie (to Phillip): Now don't go giving me that look, Zeke. That's the same look you gave me at the county fair when I wouldn't let you climb up the greasy pole. Now, you're not all that mad at me, are you?
Well, Mama, yes I am. I try to set some rules down for Will and you undermine my authority. I know how to handle things. I am an adult.
I am too, Zeke.
I know that.
Do you? How many adults do you tell to take a nap?
Mama, I was just worried about you.
But I'm fine, baby.
I know. When you had the flu and I talked to you on the phone, you sounded so small. I just want you to live a long time.
Then Zeke, let me live.
[After seeing Janice's fiancé for the first time]
Gee, when Janice described him, she didn't mention that he was... tall. Not that I have any problems with people who are... tall.
My cousin used to date a girl who was, uh... tall.
Heck, the boys go to a predominantly... tall school.
Am I alone in this, or did none of y'all notice he was white?
What the hell is wrong with Janice?!
Oh, I'm sorry, did I say "white"? [smiles weakly] I meant "tall".
He didn't seem that tall to me.
I know where babies come from. I took sex education.
I thought you took band.
Will! You were supposed to secure everything to the luggage rack.
I did! Ohhhhhh wait, this ain't the Volvo!
It's a Bungee jump proposal!
Oh, please. Whatever happened to getting down on one knee?
Daddy, that's for old fogies.
I got down on one knee.
Sustained!
(on TV; proposes to Hilary) Hilary Banks!
Yes, Trevor?!
Will you marry me?! (slams into the ground; whole family and Geoffrey watch in disbelief)
I ain't no bungee expert or nothin', but I don't think he's supposed to be slammin' into the ground like that.
(The footage of Trevor's untimely death is cut to a "Please Stand By" message)
"Please Stand By"? Great, the president's about to interrupt my marriage proposal.
Let's just pray that Trevor's okay. (later, after returning from Trevor's funeral) It was a lovely service.
Trevor didn't look so bad for a dude that had a concrete facelift.
Fool! Like that was his real head.
Could you two show a little compassion? Your sister is right behind you.
(Hilary comes into the room, wearing a black wedding dress with Vivian comforting her)
I still can't understand.
Sweetheart, the lord giveth and the lord taketh away.
No, I mean technically, am I a widow or what? This is all my fault, if I hadn't asked for a special proposal, Trevor would've been in my arms, instead of in my purse. (Pulls out a small urn.) I love you, Trevor. (Cries)
Um, Hilary? Trevor wasn't cremated.
Eww! Then who's this? (Hands the urn to Will who in turn, passes the urn to Geoffrey.)
(Holding the urn) I'll see him to the door, sir.
(Will gives Philip a handshake)
I don't want your hand, I want my rent.
Oh, come on, Uncle Phil. Haven't you learned anything from all of this?
Yeah, never rent from relatives.
You can't stop little girls from growing up.
I can, and I will!
