    December 12, 2024

    As Georgie and Jim start fixing up an old car, Georgie worries Connor is being left out. Meanwhile, Audrey and Mandy find it a challenge to work together on decorating CeeCee's nursery.

Quote from Audrey

Audrey: Have you seen that new Friends show?
Mandy: No.
Audrey: All they do is drink coffee. Who can drink that much coffee?
Mandy: I don't know.
Audrey: And their mugs are like soup bowls. Is that a New York thing?
Mandy: Mom, I don't know.
Audrey: I miss Cosby. He was a nice family man.

Quote from Audrey

Mandy: I think it's sweet they have something to do together.
Audrey: Your dad always hoped to rebuild the Mustang with Connor.
Mandy: Seriously? Dad and Connor?
Audrey: Go look in the attic. There's footballs, baseballs, fishing poles, bows and arrows. Your father tried everything. He did not give up on your brother.
Mandy: So what happened?
Audrey: He gave up.

Quote from Georgie

Georgie: [sings] ♪ Soft kitty ♪ Warm kitty ♪ Little ball of fur ♪ Happy kitty, sleepy kitty ♪ Purr, purr, purr. ♪
Mandy: That is so sweet.
Georgie: I'm trying to get her to sleep so we can fool around.
Mandy: Less sweet.

Quote from Audrey

Audrey: I was thinking of taking CeeCee with me to the mall today.
Mandy: Oh, that'd be a huge help. Thanks.
Audrey: You hear that, sweetheart? Just you and Grandma.
Mandy: Wait a minute. We discussed this. You're not getting her ears pierced.
Audrey: Oh, come on. People keep thinking she's a boy.
Mandy: I don't care.
Audrey: She won't remember it.
Mandy: Yes, she will, 'cause it's the last time she'll ever see her grandma.
Audrey: Fine.
Jim: While you're there, I could use some socks.
Audrey: I'm not going anymore.

Quote from Georgie

Georgie: Lawn's all mowed, and the sprinkler's fixed.
Jim: I didn't know it was broken.
Georgie: Wasn't till I ran over it with the lawn mower.

Quote from Audrey

Georgie: Hey, what's up with that old Mustang in the garage?
Audrey: Ooh, that's a good question, Jim.
Jim: I'm gonna fix it.
Audrey: You've been saying that for years.
Georgie: What's going on?
Mandy: Dad bought the car at a police auction. Mom hates it. You're all caught up.
Audrey: That thing will never run.
Georgie: Yes, it will.
Audrey: Oh, please. There's a better chance I'll see you run.

Quote from Georgie

Georgie: You know, an old Mustang can be worth a lot of money if we fix her up.
Audrey: Yes, fix her, sell her and give me my garage back.
Mandy: Hey, do you know anything about fixing cars?
Georgie: I didn't know anything about fixing sprinklers till about ten minutes ago. What do you think?
Jim: Well, it would be fun to get her running. I don't know about selling it, though.
Georgie: Then we don't.
Audrey: If you sell it, I'll give you half.
Georgie: I think we should sell it.

Quote from Georgie

Jim: Carburetor needs to be rebuilt, the brakes are gone, transmission's cracked, and last I looked, there's a family of rats living in the radiator.
Georgie: So all we need is some elbow grease, a little bit of cheese, and she'll be good as new.
Jim: I wish I had your confidence.
Georgie: I'll loan you some. I got plenty to spare.
Jim: I don't know, now that I'm looking at it, maybe the smart play is just sell it to a junkyard and admit defeat.
Georgie: That sure would make Mrs. McAllister happy. She does enjoy being right.
Jim: Pop the hood. Let's have a look.
Georgie: Now we're talking. Look at that... good news already.
Jim: What?
Georgie: Your rats are dead.

Quote from Jim

Georgie: This is gonna be great. I ain't never rode in a convertible before.
Jim: You know how dogs like to stick their head out the car window? It's like that but for people.
Georgie: Interior's in good shape. Seats leather?
Jim: No, I think it's Naugahyde.
Georgie: What animal's that from?
Jim: I don't know, a... a "nauga"?

Quote from Jim

Mandy: Hey. I thought you guys were out here working.
Jim: We are.
Georgie: This is the planning stage.
Jim: Yeah, very important.
Mandy: Okay. Well, you need to wash up, come in for dinner.
Georgie: Be right in.
Jim: I got about a half a bottle of planning left. [bottles clink]

Quote from Audrey

Mandy: They're gonna be a while.
Audrey: Drinking?
Mandy: Yeah.
Audrey: Should've never let him have a fridge out there.

Quote from Mandy

Mandy: Well, that's really sad.
Audrey: Any different than you and me?
Mandy: Well, we do stuff together.
Audrey: Like what?
Mandy: I don't know, didn't we do a puzzle once?

Quote from Mandy

Audrey: Well, if we wanted to do something together, how about we turn my office into a room for the baby?
Mandy: Um, I don't know if I'm ready for her to sleep in her own room.
Audrey: Wouldn't it be nice for you and Georgie to have some privacy?
[fantasy: Georgie and Mandy are kissing in bed:]
Mandy: CeeCee asleep?
Georgie: She's fine. Don't worry about it.
Mandy: Okay.
[toddler CeeCee is standing up in her crib, pointing directly at her mom and dad in bed]
Mandy: [whispers] Slowly take your hand off me.
[reality:]
Mandy: Come to think of it, a little privacy might be nice.

Quote from Jim

Jim: You need to tighten the clamp around the hose, make sure you get a good seal.
Georgie: How tight we talking?
Jim: Like a belt. You don't want your pants to fall down, but you want to leave room for dessert.

Quote from Georgie

Connor: [enters] Hello.
Georgie: Hey. We're installing a water pump. Want to join us?
Connor: Thank you for the invitation. [Connor goes up stairs]
Georgie: Great. How about that? We're putting together a pit crew.
Jim: That wasn't a yes.
Georgie: Sure it was.
Jim: I'm telling you.
Georgie: Hang on.
[Georgie goes upstairs and knocks on Connor's door. A moment later, he walks back down the stairs.]
Georgie: I stand corrected.

Quote from Mandy

Mandy: Be patient. My mom and I are gonna turn her office into a nursery.
Georgie: You're gonna do a project with your mother?
Mandy: I'm not saying there won't be blood.

Quote from Jim

Georgie: [on the phone] Yeah, a water pump for the '66 Mustang. You got one? Great. I want it. Well, how much is he paying? I'll pay 20 more. I can hold.
[meanwhile, in Jim's office:]
Jim: [answers phone] McAllister's. What? We had a deal. 20 more? Trying to jack up the price. Yes, I still want it.
Georgie: Oh, really? Well, I'll go another 20.
Jim: All right, enough nickel-and-diming. 50 more and that's my final offer.
Georgie: What kind of idiot's gonna pay that much for an old water pump? Fine, let him have it. [hangs up] Sucker.
Jim: [opens door] Georgie, great news. I got the water pump.
Georgie: Sweet. I almost had one, but the guy tried to rip me off.
Jim: Joke's on him.
Georgie: You're darn right.

Quote from Georgie

Georgie: Well, at least me and your dad are having fun.
Mandy: That's good. I'm glad.
Georgie: You think it bugs Connor that I'm spending all this time with your dad?
Mandy: Wish I could tell you.
Georgie: Growing up in my family, nobody really understood Sheldon. Sometimes I wish I tried harder.
Mandy: Well, he's still your brother. You can always call him.
Georgie: Eh.

Quote from Connor

[Georgie stands outside Connor's bedroom as electronic music can be heard playing]
Georgie: That sure ain't Mötley Crüe.

Quote from Connor

Georgie: What you doing?
Connor: I'm using analog testing equipment from the '60s as a makeshift synthesizer.
Georgie: Cool, cool. Got a minute?
Connor: Come on in.
Georgie: Golly, you got a lot of stuff.
Connor: Thank you.
Georgie: Ever think of joining a band?
Connor: I am a band.
Georgie: That's deep.
