Quotes[]
Evan: Look, mom, we took a career test at school today. It tells us what job is a good fit for our personality. Jessica: It's my job to tell you that. Your school has no business... Surgeon General, very good, Evan. Eddie: Dang, fool. Even by Chinese standards, you're a nerd. Evan: My backpack doesn't agree with you. Jessica: Just ignore him, baby. Soon you will be a doctor with the power of the military. No one expects a coup from the Surgeon General. But he'd just be overthrowing Emery, who I'm sure got preside... Flight attendant? Emery: I like travel, snacks, and being helpful. It checks all the boxes. Jessica: Oh, flight attendants don't even get a seat on the plane. They walk back and forth pushing a cart. They're the homeless of the sky! |
Jessica: Emery has a gift for tennis. Louis: We could do father-son tournaments. Jessica: Flight attendant, my ass. He'll get sports scholarships. Louis: I'll be his coach. I could pass my skills onto him, and he to his son. Jessica: He could just win prize money, and then he'll just buy an election. Louis: One day, he'll defeat me on the court. We won't speak for years, but we'll make up when I'm on my death bed. |
Evan: I'm addicted, okay? I'm addicted to playing Pogs. Eddie: I don't even get what you see in that noise. Evan: I love the thrill of taking risks, laying it all on the line. But I know I've gone too far. Eddie: So you know what you have to do? Evan: Steal money from mom's purse. Eddie: Shut up! You crazy?! Mom might hear you! Evan: And I know when to do it, too. She sleeps heavy after she eats Mexican food, so I just have to wait until it's burrito Thursday. Eddie: Dang, that's cold. You're not a nerd. You're a lowercase "g." Look, I respect the thought, but you'd probably get mom's decoy purse anyways. |
