Episode Quotes
Willie: I know what you're hiding, lad. Willie's been deaf since the boiler explosion of '88. But I taught meself to read lips.
Mailman: Morning, Willie!
Willie: WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT ME MOTHER!??!? For you're information, her feet stink 'cause she works in manure all day! But it's still the best damn Starbucks in Glasgow!

Jimbo: Gimme your wallet, kid. We're gonna identity theft your ass.
(Bart just stands there, unable to hear him)
Kearney: He's just standing his ground!
Dolph: He knows that deep down, all bullies are cowards!
Jimbo: We're undone!
(The bullies run away in fear)

Frenchman: We hate America too! Come to France and we shall mock the country that saved us twice from the Germans!
Marge: Oh, I've always wanted to go to France! Your women don't age, like Catherine Deneuve.
Frenchman: Eh, you wait till see her up close, then you tell me
