"The truth is I did not like your book."
"I know. You said you loved it."
"No, I love
you, and I didn't want to hurt your feelings. I'm sorry. I should have been honest sooner. But I can't vouch for something that I don't believe in."

Louis Huang and Jessica Huang

"The Vouch" is the eighth episode of the fourth season of Fresh Off the Boat. It first aired on November 21, 2017.

Synopsis[]

Louis gets himself into a sticky situation when he lies to Jessica and tells her that he loves her newly finished horror novel. With news that Kenny Rogers is paying a visit to Cattleman's Ranch, Jessica insists that Louis give him a copy of her book for his agent, making him extremely uncomfortable. Eddie and his friends purchase a 300-disc CD carousel to play all of their music, but Eddie thinks he's the only one in charge and becomes a tyrant.

Quotes[]

Evan: Yes! Mufasa time!
Eddie: You guys put your Lion King CD in?
Emery: We lent you the money to buy it, so we figured we'd take some slots.
Eddie: You guys don't get any slots.
Dave: I... I don't know, Eddie. If they lent you money, they kinda have a point.
Jessica: I can't believe those women!
Louis: I know, but suburban housewives are your target demo. Better to get their feedback now so you can start rewriting.
Jessica: I am not gonna change a word! Who cares what they think?! You loved it, right?
Louis: Um... yes.
Jessica: Those wet hens are just jealous. Privileged white women who can't stand to see me rising like a phoenix out of the ashes of this cul-de-sac!
Jessica: Everyone in our family thought you were crazy for moving us here, but I supported you.
Louis: Jessica, there is a character in your book that somehow manages to get murdered twice. It... It doesn't make any sense.
Jessica: And a Chinese immigrant opening up a Western-themed steakhouse in Central Florida does? It doesn't matter that your idea didn't make sense to me. It made sense to you. It was your dream, and that's enough for me.
Louis: I should have supported you from the beginning.
Jessica: You should wait until I write a book that you believe in.
Louis: I may not believe in the detective abilities of Jennifer Hong. But I will always believe in the dreams of Jessica Huang.
