Memorable Quotes
| Ben: | Hey, Tuck. As the newest member of the Wheeler clan, any way I can talk you into taking my mom's car out to Jersey tomorrow to pick up the costumes? |
| Tucker: | Oh, you know I don't really drive. |
| Riley: | Oh, I do! I'll drive. Can I do it? I'm a new member too. |
| Bonnie: | Well, why can't I go? What's going on? |
| Ben: | Well, you know how it wouldn't be Christmas without Santa? |
| Danny: | But Dad was always Santa! (While spitting snow cone ice at Tucker's face) |
| Ben: | And his sleigh lands tomorrow morning. |
| Bonnie: | Your father is coming to town?! |
| Ben: | Merry Christmas! |
| Tucker: | Seriously? Who has 14 boxes of Christmas costumes? Even Jesus would call this overkill. |
| Riley: | Okay. Well, then make yourself useful and find us a good one. I wanna be something naughty and nice. |
| Tucker: | Okay. We've got a.. a box full of random beards, some assorted angel paraphernalia. Oh! Halo! What's over here? Oh! And a box full of Danny's old schoolwork? So Riley When I said, "Hey, check the boxes," I kinda meant, "Hey, check the boxes!" |
| Riley: | Sorry. I was too busy ignoring you. |
| Tucker: | Oh, but wait! What do we have here? The journal of one Mr. Daniel J. Wheeler. |
| Riley: | Oh my God! Aww, that was our senior class project. Should we read it? Is that like totally wrong? |
| Tucker: | ...Oh, I'm sorry. What were you saying? I was reading. |
| Riley: | Tucker, if you're gonna invade someone's privacy, at least have the decency to read it out loud. |
| Tucker: | I think we might finally have something. Oh, there's a whole section about a secret crush. Looks like the big guy was in love. |
| Riley: | Oh yeah...No. Trust me, if there's anything I know about Danny it's that he was never in love. |
| Tucker: | Yeah, tell that to "Girl-X". |
| Riley: | "Girl-X"? Who's Girl-X? |
| Tucker: | Oh, I'm sensing that might be a code. |
| Riley: | What? |
| Tucker: | Yeah, I guess he checked her out every day at field hockey practice. |
| Riley: | There is no way! I played field hockey. We made fun of every girl on that team. |
| Tucker: | Wait. You were on the field hockey team? |
| Riley: | Yeah. Okay, keep reading. We gotta figure this out. |
| Tucker: | Oh no, that's it. The end. When I said section I just meant those two lines. |
| Danny: | Wait. You read my journal? What's wrong with you? |
| Tucker: | Stay with me, okay? Riley knows about Girl-X. |
| Danny: | You broke my code? |
| Tucker: | No, I called up my three-year-old nephew and he broke it. But Riley has not, okay? So you've got yourself two options: One, finally man up and admit that you've been in love with her after all these years. Or, you can...(Danny hides under the couch) or you can just hide. Where did you g...(Danny holds Tucker's chest and pulls him down) Oh! |
