| Quotes |
Manny Singer:
Corrina, can I talk to you for a minute? Look, whatever you may believe in is fine for you, okay? Your heaven is fine for you, but Molly's mother was an atheist and so am I, and I don't want you telling her that her mother is somewhere she isn't. Corrina Washington: Yes, Mr. Singer. I'll just continue to tell Molly her mother is in the bathtub. See more » |
