Episode Quotes

Gloria Delgado-Pritchett: You have to tell him.
Jay Pritchett: No. I've been through this before. When Mitchell was nine, I was supposed to take care of his bird. It got out and flew into a fan. It was like a bloody pillow fight.
Gloria Delgado-Pritchett: My God. How many pets have you killed?
Jay Pritchett: Just the two. I took the heat on the bird. It was a big mistake. To this day, Mitchell looks at me, I see him thinking "That's the guy who killed Fliza Minnelli."
Gloria Delgado-Pritchett: And what if he finds out? Then what? You'll be the guy who killed his pet and lied to him.
Jay Pritchett: He's not going to find out, because I covered my tracks.
Gloria Delgado-Pritchett: Okay.

Gloria Delgado-Pritchett: "Fliza Minnelli"?
Jay Pritchett: How did I not know that kid was gay?
