Memorable Moments

Quotes

  • Dale: Hey, you guys want to come to my vernal equinox party tomorrow?
Hank: No.
Dale: Before you answer, remember, the vernal equinox is when the stars align in the configuration of an arrow pointing to earth, as if to say, "Come, visit here." I'll read a thoughtful essay. We'll shriek ceremoniously and eat tapas!
Hank: God, no.
  • Dale: Bill, you got to promise me you won't do that in front of the aliens. They hate slapstick!
  • Dale: Now, be sure you've got your phone off when the aliens get here. It could startle them, which could result in our death. Not to mention it's pretty rude.
  • Tom Chick: We're moving you off the news desk to features. It seems people aren't interested in hard news anymore. They say it's "boring" and makes them "sad."
Nancy: That is not my fault. I always said we shouldn't do the sad stuff.
  • Tom Chick: People love you. Look at this mail. "We love the blonde woman." And "Nancy real good." And "I want to lay with blondie."
Nancy: Really? Oh, that's flattering.
  • Dale: So, they changed the name of Arlen to Fartland. Oh, cold, hilarious fate.
  • John Redcorn: I wrote a song for you. It's about a beautiful tree named Fancy. Ignore the end. The tree becomes a home for a squirrel with body image issues.
  • Dale: I think the other me is close by. I hear the sound of my voice. If I ask, I was never here!
  • Minh: So doctor say hair loss caused by something stressing you out? I say it toss up between idiot husband and idiot son.
  • Luanne: I should wait in the car. I don't want my baby to catch your stress. I am not giving birth to a bald baby.
  • Kahn: Hey, Hank Hill, my nephew missing. If you see 17-year-old in tricked-out hot rod, call the police.
Hank: I always do.
  • Luanne: I know what Jesus would do. He would resist the temptation, even if he had to go bald. And he had great hair.
  • Dale: Nancy, I don't want us to spend one more minute apart. I want to be with you for the rest of my life. So what if that's only... 35 minutes away. Now, I'm not saying the world is going to end in 35 minutes, but if it did, I know exactly where I want to be: in the arms of my trusty wife. You are as beautiful as you are trusty. Now, let's go home. I want you in the bathroom with me when it happens.
Nancy: What?
Dale: Nancy, my lover, my teacher, my friend, I don't want to see me without you.
