Synopsis[]
After her precious morning papaya goes missing and the dishwasher was used for its actual purpose rather than just a drying rack, Jessica automatically accuses Eddie as the culprit. Yet when a record store manager accuses him of stealing a CD, she realizes he has other motives for his actions. Meanwhile, Louis and Emery are bursting with excitement when a TV crew comes to shoot an infomercial at Cattleman's Ranch.

Quotes[]
Eddie: I don't get it. Why would she put dirty plates in the drying rack? Evan: That's just it, Eddie. It's not a drying rack. It's a dishwasher. Eddie: You mean the thing we put our dishes in after we wash them in the sink? The drying rack. Evan: Darn it, Edwyn! That's what I'm telling you! It's a machine that washes the dishes for you. With jets of water that shoot on the plates. |
Eddie: We've had a dishwasher this whole time? Why haven't we been using it? Jessica: Because this family doesn't believe in dishwashers. It was there when we moved in. We'll never use it. Evan: Why not? Jessica: Because it's wasteful. It makes you soft, and it's hard on the dishware. Chinese people respect their nice plates. That's why they're called "China." |
Jessica: Eddie, I specifically told you not to use the dishwasher. Eddie: I didn't! Jessica: Then why are the plates warm? Eddie: It's Florida. Everything's warm. |
Reggie: Okay, Louis, are you ready to eat some salad? Louis: Call me the Titanic, 'cause I'm about to tear into some iceberg. |
Louis: Oh, I see what's going on here. Making me nervous about being on TV, wishing me luck. You were sabotaging me from the start. Emery: I don't feel bad. When I found out what the lights were, I knew I wanted to be in front of them. Sorry, Dad. It's "infomercial," not "friend-mercial." |
Jessica: I knew it. I knew you were lying all along, about the dishwasher, eating my papaya. Eddie: Oh, I didn't eat your papaya. Papayas are gross. Those slimy black seeds? Ugh! Hard pass. Jessica: Well, if you didn't eat my papaya, who did? Eddie: I don't want to say. Jessica: Eddie, tell me! Eddie: I can't. I live by a code. Jessica: Howie, put him in jail! Eddie: Fine. It was Evan. Jessica: Evan? Really? Eddie: It wasn't his fault. He didn't mean to eat your breakfast. He just has a weakness for tropical fruit. He also has a clean record, so I took the fall for him. I mean, what's another papaya on my rap sheet? Jessica: You mean you sat and watched me eat your Irish elf cereal just so your little brother wouldn't get into trouble? Eddie: Yeah. Of course. Uh, Mom, are you okay? Jessica: I'm proud of you, Eddie. Eddie: Really? So you're not mad that I lied? Jessica: No, I'm not mad. Eddie: So, you're saying sometimes it's good to lie? Jessica: No. Don't make me mad again. Eddie: You lied about us having a dishwasher. Isn't that hypocritical? Jessica: Eddie, there is something called a "white lie." And that is a lie that protects you from all the things that make white people soft. |
Emery: I guess I'm more nervous than I thought I'd be. Louis: It's okay. You can do this. Yes, I was a little upset when I heard about the recast, but if it can't be me, I'm happy it's you. Salad Eater is the second role you were born to play. Emery: What was the first? Louis: Fantastic son. Emery: Thanks, Dad. I understand now. You're trying to throw me off my game, make me think my mediocre performance is fine so I don't strive to be the best. Well, it's not going to work. Louis: What? No... Emery: Get out of my eyeline. |
Eddie: If the CD skips, you must acquit. Howie: I guess it is yours. My mistake. Jessica: "My mistake"? That's it? You falsely accused my son of being a thief! You need to make this right. Howie: How would I do that? Jessica: You're gonna buy back his music disc at full price. Or else I will tell everyone that your store profiles Asians. Institutional bias. Howie: But it's a Street Fighter soundtrack from two years ago, a-and it skips. No one's gonna buy it. Jessica: Eddie, what's that sound like to you? Eddie: Not our problem. |
