Quotes[]

Emery: We'll have to divide these since we're getting our own rooms. How 'bout you take the herbivores and I'll take the carnivores?
Evan: Or... we divide them by geologic time period. Dibs on Jurassic!
Emery: Damn it.
Jessica: We're moving on up, Louis, like The Jeffersons. You know, I've always fancied myself a Taiwanese Weezy.
Louis: It's the intercom system. Right, boys?
Evan: Welcome to the Huangs' new house. May I take your order?
Emery: Brenda, can you see if they can push that meeting from 4:00 to 5:00?
Evan: I'm playing drive-thru.
Emery: Oh, I'm playing assistant. Brenda, hold my calls.
Jessica: Hold all the calls, Brenda. Intercom's closed. It wastes electricity. If you need to communicate, yell. Better, pass notes under the door like they do in prison. Cheap and quiet.
Louis: Aren't you being a little extreme? These things don't cost that much.
Jessica: You think I'm being extreme? It's easy to look at this place and think we're rich now, like that half-naked Scottish duck you boys love. But the truth is, poverty is right outside those double French doors. Listen.
Eddie: I don't hear anything.
Jessica: Exactly, because poverty moves in silence. We used up all our savings to buy this place, and now we can't afford to live in it. You've heard the term "house poor"? Well, that's what we are now. So no intercoms, no double ovens, no heating the hot tub.
Louis: I thought we were in good financial shape. Michael Bolton just became a partner in the restaurant. If that's not the definition of "stable," I don't know what is.
Emery: I know you're excited about private school, but I hope being around all those rich kids doesn't change you.
Evan: What do you mean?
Emery: Like how Chris O'Donnell went to private school in Scent of a Woman and almost lost his integrity.
Evan: [as Frank Slade] Hoo-ahhh!
Emery: [as Frank Slade] Hahh!
Evan: You don't need to worry. This blazer won't change me. I may look larger than life, but I'm still a little boy's 6.
Emery: Hey, look. "Made in China." Kind of like our family. Hope it didn't come from a sweatshop. I've been reading about child labor after the whole Kathy Lee Gifford controversy.
Trent: This many limbs pressed together reminds me of Trent's sister on prom night.
Jessica: Okay, fine! We're not house poor. I lied.
Louis: Why would you say we're in financial trouble when we're not?
Jessica: Because I wanted us to buy this house, but I don't want us to enjoy it.
Louis: I don't understand. Why don't you want us to enjoy our new house?
Jessica: I'm not comfortable being this comfortable.
Louis: What's wrong with comfortable? We used to sell furniture with that exact slogan.
Jessica: If we get too comfortable, then we'll be satisfied with what we have. And then we won't keep pushing to be better.
Louis: Better than what? And why do we always have to push?
Jessica: Because pushing is what got us here.
Louis: And now that we're here, what's the point of all the hard work if we can't enjoy it?
Jessica: So, that's it? We're done? We've achieved the dream? Now we just sit around sipping Mai Tais and playing Scrabble while I watch you get old?
Louis: I'm not saying we're done. I'm just saying that if we don't enjoy what we have, then we don't have anything.
Jessica: I don't even know how to enjoy it. Struggling is all I've ever known.
Louis: Well, just loosen your grip a little. You more than anyone deserves to enjoy the fruits of our labor.
Headmaster Royce: I know you're new to private school, but you don't tell the headmaster how to do his job.
Evan: And you're new to brave little boys, because I would be ashamed to attend a school that ignores the possibility of sweatshop labor.
Headmaster Royce: Well put, sir. Best of luck next year.
Evan: What?
Headmaster Royce: No young man should be forced to attend a school he doesn't respect. I'm revoking your admission.
Evan: You made me sacrifice my spot in school for Wisconsin?
Emery: Anyone could've made the same mistake. You saw the welt pocket.
Evan: Wisconsin! I'm gonna kill you!
Evan: Your middle child has something to share with you.
Emery: Evan lost his spot at St. Orlando's because I encouraged him to fight a fictional human rights injustice.
