The Conners
Wednesdays 9:00 PM on ABCThe Conners Season 4 Quotes
I hate you so much. You’ve destroyed my life, and I’m going to spend the rest of my waking hours hoping that you fail at everything you do.
Darlene
Louise: Now he’s going to be busy building that house for you and Darlene. I’m never going to see him.
Becky: Building the house was your idea!
Louise: I was being nice.
Becky: Well, you made a mistake. Move on.
Every time one of you needs something, you expect your Dad to drop everything and take care of you, and the thing he usually drops is me.
Louise
One of the Conners has to succeed eventually. It’s the law of averages, like going to a tropical island and being killed by a falling coconut. There’s no reason that can’t happen to me.
Darlene
Dan: The point is, if you’re too afraid to try, you’ll never know whether you could have gotten the raise or could have gotten the house.
Darlene: Oh, I want that house so bad.
Dan: Take it from an old man. It’s easier to live with failure than regret.
I know how much you want our Dad all to yourself and after you get that, please remember, you asked for it.
Becky [to Louise]
Darlene: Dad, an hour is not that far away.
Dan: Chicago is only an hour away. When you lived there, I missed five years of my grandkids' lives.
Darlene: I don't believe in spirits lingering in a house.
Dan: Do you believe in adult children lingering in a house? Because that's what I'm trying to fix.
Don: You know my funeral home down on Pulaski? Well, business is so good, I'm moving into a bigger space.
Darlene: Don't expand too fast. Who knows, people around here could start wearing masks and eating right.
I know house prices are lower the farther you get from Chicago, but how far can you go? Eventually, it's just like Missouri, right?
Becky
Louise: Now that Darlene and Becky are moving out, I thought I'd bring some more of my stuff over and downgrade to a smaller storage unit.
Jackie: It's interesting how Louise is slowly taking over the house.
Dan: She's my wife. What exactly are you doing over here?
Jackie: I'm the wise elder. Everybody comes to me for answers.
Dan: Of all of us, Ann Marie knows you can't possibly survive without her, so she's going to hang on and let you go first.
Chuck: Well, I've drank enough beer and ate enough hot dogs. I'm doing my part.
