Quotes
-
Ramsey : [during Lumpy's funeral service] There are a lot of moments in life, and I didn't know Lumpy very long. Most of you probably had more time with him than I did, but... just because dying on a cactus was Lumpy's last moment doesn't mean it was his most important one.
-
Ramsey : My mom says taking drugs for fun is okay, but taking them for problems is not. 'Cause once the drugs wear off, you still have the problem.
-
Ramsey : [during Lumpy's funeral service] He didn't tell anyone about his heart because he didn't want his friends or his family to worry. And if he only had a little time left to live, the last thing he wanted to be was a lawyer. He just wanted to fish and have fun.

Jaime : You never gave it a chance.
Ramsey : No one makes new friends in high school.
Jaime : Oh, you're so smart though.
Ramsey : Yeah, and everyone's just dying to be friends with that freak girl who does math two years ahead of everybody else.
Jaime : Oh, if you try, it'll get better.
Ramsey : You sure about that, Mom? Is it gonna get better like Milwaukee, where I got beat up every week? Or is it gonna get better like Rockford, where you got beat up every week?
Jaime : Stop it. I did the best that I could.
Ramsey : Or is it like Brooklyn Park, where I had to watch my dad O.D.? So tell me, Mom...
Jaime : [interrupting] Stop it!
Ramsey : ...When does it get better, because I wouldn't want to miss it.
[stomps out of house in winter weather]
Jaime : Ramsey... where are you going?
Ramsey : Anywhere but here.

Ramsey : I still think you should've gone to the hospital.
Lumpy : Mm-mmm, no, no. No, Duluth is... like umm... two hours away from here. I took a hot shower. I'll be fine.
Ramsey : Well, you look purple and bloated.
Lumpy : I always look bloated.
[pause]
Lumpy : It's okay, it's okay. I work really hard to look this bloated. It's a point of pride for me.

Ramsey : Hot date?
Priest : What are you doing here?
Ramsey : You know I like to watch. I hate it when you pull the blinds, Dad.
Priest : [sighs] I'm not your dad.
Ramsey : Dad, father, father, dad... Whatever. I need 50 bucks.
Priest : I don't have 50 bucks. This is really your best option? Blackmailing a priest?
Ramsey : Think of it as community welfare.
Priest : Is there a doctor or a lawyer you can hustle?
Ramsey : If you want me to go back to taking it out of the offering tray, I will.

Scott : We can drive you to Minneapolis but then, how you're gonna get back home?
Ramsey : I don't know. I'd take the bus or something.
Kristin : I think we should figure that out before...
Scott : [reciprocating] Yeah
Ramsey : [interrupting] I'm pregnant.
[silence]
Ramsey : It's Lumpy's.
Kristin : [faces away] I knew it.
