Quotes:


Carson:

Carson: No, this must go away.

Carson: Slim pickin’s.

Carson: Let’s hang a deer head in here. That always adds ambience. Not.

Carson: I loved Moulin Rouge, but this is a bit much.
Ted: Let’s put it in the neighbour’s lawn.

Carson: The pink box of many treasures. Guess what? You’re adopted. Just kidding. That’s not funny. I’m sorry.

Carson: So, where would you wear this? Maybe a court date for stuffing some endangered animal.
Jeff stares back seriously unimpressed.

Jeff to Carson: That’s washed out black, not grey.

Carson: We’re hunting for couture.

Carson: You go to a trout place… Or the supermarket.

Carson: Pink feathers. I mean, what do your people use this for? My people would use it to decorate shoes or perhaps a festive tiara.

Carson: Quick like a squirrel being hunted by hungry Indians.

Carson: That poor thing, she’s gonna get Carpel Tunnel.
Thom: It’s a Polynesian sweatshop in that kitchen.

Carson: The other one looked like a refugee from Magnum P. I.

Carson: I want them to adopt me.

Carson: Don’t let him in your home, he’s gonna ruin it.
Carson and Thom in unison: Oh my God, a matching bag and jacket!

Carson: We brought Little House on the Prairie to the new millennium.


Jai:

Jai: I feel like this is very Milan.
Carson: I love it. It makes me want to get a malaria shot.

Jai: You end up with mixed, smashed furniture, you know. You end up with a leopard, you know.
Kyan: I feel ya.
Jai: You do?
Kyan: I feel ya.
Jai: You look so powerful right now.

Jai: Let’s get my family down here.

Jai: Let’s go boys.

Jai: Hey Mr Ted.


Kyan:

To the toilet: Thank you for being clean.

Kyan: When I’m laying here in this bed, and I’m all snuggled up like this, you know what I wanna do? I wanna go milk a cow.

Jeff: It’s better to have lost and loved…
Jeff and Kyan simultaneously: Than never to have loved at all.
Kyan: And it’s better to have lost and shaved, than never to have shaved at all!

Kyan: …How cool is that? It’s messy…
Jeff: Looks like I just got out of a tornado.
Kyan: No, it doesn’t.

Kyan: Loco.

Kyan: She’s a little taskmaster.

Kyan: Excellent application of product.


Ted:

Ted: I have a feeling we’re gonna find some strange meat. Oh look, ground antelope.
Jai: No, that’s normal stuff.
Ted: Oh look, elk.

Ted: Will you bait my hook for me? I don’t want to.

Ted: I totally had a bite.
Jeff: Okay, then move over.

Ted: I’m going to baste you.

The son: This is better than college food.
Ted: I hope so Steven.
Thom: If you didn’t get snaps from him that would’ve been ugly.


Thom:

Thom, on seeing that Carson has broken a ‘scissors’: Did you?
Carson: I didn’t do it on purpose.

Thom is intrigued with what is clearly not a domesticated animal and sincerely asks: Is that a neighbour’s dog?

Thom: In the event that you lose this one, you have this one.
Carson: You have a backup.

Thom: Girls…

Thom: You’re gonna have bad credit because of this one.

Thom: Notice the Thom in Thomasville.

Thom: Oh my God, does it happen that often?

This is oh so true:
Jeff: You’re a miracle worker.
Thom: Well, thank you.

Thom: Hey, what’s going on with this fashion show, people?

Thom and Ted in unison: Plastic cups!
Thom: And this is in their house. Can you imagine if they had a picnic?

Thom: Yes you were honey. You were looking awfully gruff.
Carson: He looked like a shitzu.

Thom: Look at this guy. “He’s crazy. I hate this guy. When are we leaving?”
Carson: He has no idea where he is.
