Episode Quotes |

Connie: I don't like Joseph. He threw a dodgeball at me once.
Bobby: Well, I'm sure he had a good reason. | Nancy: Honey, you want a beer?
Dale & John Redcorn: Yes.
Dale: (to himself) How did he know I wanted a beer? | Kahn: Kahn Jr., you come with me. We go get ice cream and tetanus shot. | Mr. Grandy: You're not bad dads, you have "bad-dad habits." | Hank: Dale, why don't you go tell Peggy and Minh we're here so they don't worry.
Dale: I noticed my wife's name was not among those mentioned. Am I to assume Nancy should continue worrying? |
