## Quotes

Scott: "Why are you here?"

B.J.: "I always go with Mom to her AA meetings. She's usually too drunk to drive home after."

Scott: "That fits."

Jim: "He was always in and out of jail with my brother."

Scott: "Oh! Your brother Mack!"

Jim: "Who?"

Scott: "Mack! You all pretended not to know who he was on Christmas, too!"

Jim: "Oh, you mean Mick? I didn't know he goes by Mack."

Scott: "Wait, his name is Mick?"

Jim: "Well, it's Mick or Mack."

Scott: "But which is it?"

Jim: "It's Mick or Mack."

Scott: "But which is it?"

Jim: "I call him Mick. But it's Mick or Mack."

Scott: "You're still saying Mick or Mack."

Jim: "Because it's Mick or Mack."

Scott: "But is it Mick or Mack?"

Jim: "Yes!"

Scott: "Gah!"

Jamila: "Is this his name?" (holds up paper with "McCormack" written on it)

Jim: "Yes! Mick or Mack!"

Scott: "It's pronounced 'McCormack'!"

Jim: "Okay, fine. It's Mick OR Mack. But nobody says it like that, though."

Scott: "Oh, everybody in India-nuh says Mick or Mack?" (dawning realization) "Oh, I guess that would make sense, actually."

Whitney: "He's still writing you into his movie? Do not let him do to you what Christina Aguilera did to me!"

Scott: "What?"

Whitney: "'Burlesque'? That is my story! Nobody even knew what the Wagon Wheel Watusi was until I did it! Got a little too tipsy at a Hooters one night in Fort Wayne. Rolled off the bar and just kept rolling for a good thirty seconds. 'Wagon Wheel Whitney', they called me. Or was it 'Off the Wagon Whitney'?"

### Daddy Scott

B.J.: (smacks Scott's head) "Hey, Daddy!"

Scott: "Scott."

B.J.: "Daddy Scott."

Scott: "Are we still doing that?"

Whitney: "Hi, Daddy!"

Scott: "Scott."

Whitney: "Daddy Scott."

Scott: (moan)

Whitney (to Jamila): "Mommy Whitney."

Jamila: "Is he your daddy?"

Scott: "Scott."

Jamila: "Daddy Scott."

Scott: (grunts)

### Jamila's Mama

Jamila: "Well, I'mma tell you something my mama used to tell me. 'Sometimes, a door opens up and you can walk on through it, or you can stay right where you are 'cause you're probably gonna be fine either way, you know. It just feels like whichever you wanna do at that time.'"

Scott: "She had such a way with words."

Jamila: "Well, if you're worried about your son going off, let me tell you something that my mama used to always tell me."

Scott: "Oh, God."

Jamila: "'A bird has got to fly. Sometimes it soars, and sometimes it flies into a window 'cause it's not so smart, but at least it flew. Or it did, because it's probably dead now.'"

Scott: "Put that one on a poster."

Jamila: "Like my mother always used to tell me..."

Scott: "Oh, God."

Jamila: "'Life is not what happens to you; it's how you respond to it.'"

Scott: "Whoa. That one actually made sense."

Jamila: "Really? Because I had the least amount of confidence in that one, too."
