Brian: Alyssa, do you know what a bikini is?

Alyssa: Yes.

Brian: What is it?

Alyssa: Um, it's like a cucumber.

(At Brian's parent's house)

Carrie: Ethan you need to drink your milk at the table.

(Ethan stomps foot and grunts.)

Carrie: Ethan, you're disobeying.

Alyssa: (to Brian's mom) Grandma, Ethan is disobeying. I'm so sorry we brought a disobeyer to your house.

Game Question: You're planning a sensual evening with your partner. How would you create a romantic atmosphere?

Carrie: I guess the usual stuff. I'd put a bunch of pillows and blankets on the floor...light some candles...light a fire in the fireplace...

Brian: With your laser vision?

December 18, 2007 (Marcus?)

Marcus was having a hard time waking up this morning. Brian was holding him, and he said "Good morning!" Then he said, for Marcus, "I'm not getting paid enough to be here."

December 13, 2007 (Brian)

Our pizza from Papa Murphy's wasn't cooking on the top in the middle, so I turned the broiler on, and just barely burnt the pizza.

Carrie: Thanks for picking up dinner.

Brian: Thanks for burning it.
