Everybody Loves Raymond (TV Series)

The Plan (2003)

Peter Boyle: Frank Barone

Quotes 

• Frank Barone : Now stop ignoring me, and make me some lunch! I'm feeling... pot roasty.

  Marie Barone : Make it yourself.

  Frank Barone : [horrified]  Myself? What are you talking about?

  Marie Barone : I'm on to you. You pretend to be a stupid ass so I can wait on you hand and foot. It's over.

  [Frank sits down, realizing his jig is up] 

  Ray Barone : Dad, you just gonna take that?

  Frank Barone : 45 years, I had a good run.

• Debra Barone : TV, VCR. It's all you care about. I swear, Ray. The only time you call me during the day is if you want me to tape stuff for you because you're running late.

  Ray Barone : Not "stuff." Games that I have to watch for work, okay? So I can buy food and electricity for the children. By the way, I don't know why I ask you to tape anything because you never do it right!

  Frank Barone : [to Marie]  Yeah!

  Ray Barone : [turns to Frank]  She can't figure out the damn VCR; how hard is it to tape something? I mean, If I can do it...

  [pauses to consider that Debra might be faking it as well, turns around to face Debra] 

  Ray Barone : Faker!

  Debra Barone : What?

  Ray Barone : You could use the VCR, but you don't want to, so you pretend not to be able to. Faker!

  Debra Barone : That is idiotic.

  Ray Barone : No, it's right-iotic! Well, the shoe's on the other foot now! Uncomfortable and smelly, is it not?

  Frank Barone : [to Marie]  You know what, I'm starting to think you could shovel the driveway!

• Marie Barone : The truth is, dear, you're allowed to be mad at him. In fact, keeping that anger bottled up can be bad for your health.

  Frank Barone : That's why this one will live to be 100.

  Debra Barone : Amy, you don't have to let him off the hook so easily. What he did was hurtful. Just like Ray and his one man zipper band.

  Ray Barone : He didn't play the zipper. That was his name.

  [Debra sighs]
