Dialogue[edit]
- Welcome home, Pops! How's my favorite role model?
- [pause]
- James: How much do you want, Bart? Huh? Okay. It's twenty bucks. Is that enough?
- Bart: Dad! You're so cynical. Maybe I just wanna celebrate YOU.
- James: After 16 years, you're starting now? No, I have work to do.
- General McFee: Jenx! Tell me you have a witness.
- Major Jenks: Nothing solid, sir. Just a lady walking her dog last night.
- General McFee: Did she give a description?
- Major Jenks: [referring to notes] Yes. She said he was "super cute candy sugar in my eye holes and the honorary mayor of Hunky Town," sir.
- Albert: [in a football huddle] Okay, guys, battle time. Download me an action plan.
- Jaden: Just stay out of the way. Blast right 21 Z, on two.
- Gabby: [entering the huddle] Albert.
- Albert: Hello, Gabby.
- Gabby: You can not go into this game.
- Jaden: Yeah, she's right. You haven't even been to the practices. You don't know the plays.
- Teammates: Yeah. Yeah.
- Mae : [entering the huddle] Gabby, what are you doing?
- Albert: Hello, Mae.
- Jaden: Oh-ho, bestie versus boyfriend. Grab you popcorn, dudes.
- Gabby: You should not be playing football. He could think someone's the enemy and take 'em out.
- Albert: It's all in good fun.
- Nevaeh: [entering the huddle] Hey, get your boyfriend out of my homecoming game.
- Albert: Hello, Neveah. That's heaven spelled backwards, guys.
- General McFee: Give yourselves up! You've stolen property of the United States government. Come out peacefully and tell us everything we want to know, or you will be locked up and tried for treason!
- James: And there is no way you are going to homecoming!
- Mae: [first line upon her and Gabby coming out from behind the pile of pallets with their hands up] But, Dad!
- James: Not another word, young lady. I want you to get into this bulletproof Humvee this minute. And I want you to think about what you have done!
- Gabby: [to Mae while running from the military] Hide.
- [Mae and Gabby duck behind a pile of pallets in an alley as the U.S. military converges on the alley]
- General McFee: You've stolen property of the United States government. Come out peacefully and tell us everything we want to know.
- James: That's right. And there is no way that you are going to homecoming.
- Mae: [Mae and Gabby come out from behind the pile of pallets with their hands up] But, Dad!
