Quotes 

• Ben Hood : Well, it's great that we can all be together. And this Thanksgiving, no yelling, no hysteria, especially with grandpa not here, although we miss him. So let's do it right and Wendy, why don't you say grace. You used to love to say grace. Remember?

  Wendy Hood : Dear Lord, thank you for this Thanksgiving holiday. And for all the material possessions we have and enjoy. And for letting us white people kill all the Indians and steal their tribal lands. And stuff ourselves like pigs, even though children in Asia are being napalmed.

  Ben Hood : Okay, okay. Jesus! Enough, alright? Paul, roll?

  Paul Hood : Thank you.

  Ben Hood : Can I have the gravy?

• Wendy Hood : Are you watching this?

  Paul Hood : Watching what?

  Wendy Hood : Nixon, dufus, its incredible, he should be shot.

  Ben Hood : Hey. Drop the political assassination stuff please.

  Wendy Hood : He's a liar.

• Wendy Hood : I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

• Wendy Hood : [playing with a soldier doll]  Well, looks like someone got to his private parts before us.

  Sandy Carver : Communist Viet Cong.

  Wendy Hood : They left it in the jungle.

• [Mikey rides up behind Wendy] 

  Mikey Carver : I don't ever want to see you.

  Wendy Hood : Then why did you come after me?

  [Mikey stops, turns his bike around and rides off] 

• Mikey Carver : [quickly jumps off of being on top of Wendy after being interrupted by her father]  "When Worlds Collide".

  Wendy Hood : [wearing a Nixon mask]  What?

  Mikey Carver : 4:30 movie. "When Worlds Collide".

  Ben Hood : What the hell are you kids doing down here?

  Wendy Hood : What do you think we're doing, Dad?

  Ben Hood : What do I think? I think you're probably... touching each other. I think... You're touching that reckless jerk-off for God's sake, and I think he's trying to get into your slacks! I think at 14 years of age, you're getting ready to give up you're girlhood!

  Mikey Carver : Hey, hang on there, mister.

  Ben Hood : Hey, don't you direct a single word at me, Mikey. I don't wanna hear it. I'll be discussing this matter with your parents very soon. Young lady.

  Wendy Hood : Talking to me, Dad?

  Ben Hood : Who else would I be talking to? And take that thing off!

  Wendy Hood : [She takes the mask off]  You can forget all this stern dad stuff.

  Ben Hood : I'm not interested in your smart remarks right now, young lady. Let's go. Right now. You and I can discuss it on the walk home.

• Wendy Hood : What's that?

  [grabs Nixon mask] 

  Wendy Hood : Oh, wow.

  Mikey Carver : Wendy.

  Wendy Hood : [she puts the mask on and turns around]  I won't take my pants off. I'll touch it, but that's as far as it goes.

  [Mikey gets on top of her and starts dry humping] 

• Wendy Hood : Dad, stop it!

  Ben Hood : Get to sleep, young lady. I mean it.

  Wendy Hood : [opens bedroom door]  Fascist.

  Ben Hood : If I were a fascist, I would have sent you to one of those southern military academies a long time ago. Now, get to bed.

• Wendy Hood : [On the phone]  No, come on. He's like a big infected white head. I would never...

  [hears door being shut] 

  Wendy Hood : Shit, it's my parents.

  [turns off light and hides under the bed still on the phone] 

  Wendy Hood : He's so gross.

• Beth : She's a total Young Republican. She said that you licked Dave Brewster's weenie in the third floor bathroom.

  Wendy Hood : She's lying. I wouldn't touch Dave Brewster's dick if you paid me. It's probably crawling with VD from when he stuck it in her - which he did.

• Paul Hood : How are the parental units functioning these days?

  Wendy Hood : Dad's like doing his "Up With People" routine. Mom really hasn't been saying much.

  Paul Hood : I don't know. Dad seems a little weird, you know, nervous.

  Wendy Hood : Yeah, well wait till Mom finally opens her mouth.

• Mikey Carver : No one's here.

  Wendy Hood : Maybe just watch some TV.

  Mikey Carver : Maybe we can mess around. You know, only if you want to.

  Wendy Hood : I don't know.

• Wendy Hood : Have you ever had a nocturnal emission?

  Sandy Carver : Huh?

  Wendy Hood : It's when you wake up and find this little pool of sticky stuff, like after a sexy dream. They haven't told you about this stuff yet? On what planet are you living on?

• Mikey Carver : I'm gonna check out the ice storm. Wanna come?

  Wendy Hood : Maybe. I don't know.
