Quotes[]
- Murtaugh: Women mystify me.
- Urkel: Yeah, when God created women, he should have supplied a set of instructions.
- Murtaugh: I really tried to impress Rachel tonight. But she threw a hissy fit just because I ordered for her. I always thought women go for a "take charge, tell them what they want" kind of guy.
- Urkel: Yeah, well I'm more of a "put them on a pedestal, you're lucky if they speak to you" kind of guy.
- Murtaugh: Well, my approach doesn't work and yours is pathetic. Maybe we should just give up women.
- Urkel: No, Lieu. No matter how frustrating they are, we need them.
- Murtaugh: Yeah, you're right, kid. We need women to crank out more men.
- Urkel: [sarcastically] Gee, Lieu, I can't imagine why Rachel didn't flip for you.
