Valentine's Day III (2012)

Charlie McDermott: Axl Heck

Quotes 

• Axl Heck : Oh, this is all your fault! You know why I haven't had a life-changing event? 'Cause nothing in my life has happened. Nothing. I mean, we're not rich enough to travel, we're not poor enough to live out of our car, Mom's not on the Internet stripping for money, and Dad doesn't get drunk and beat anyone.

  Mike Heck : Not yet.

• Axl Heck : Dudes, it's, like, a totally lame assignment. I mean, we're only juniors. What kind of big, life-changing event could we have even had?

  Sean Donahue : I know, it sucks. I'm probably just going to write about the time I got trapped under the ice at Patoka Lake. That counts, right?

  Axl Heck : What?

  Darrin : Yeah, I can't decide between the time I helped deliver my baby sister at the carpet store or the time I was pronounced dead for two minutes when I was six. What do you guys like better?

• Axl Heck : [filming]  This is my brother. And he's been very sick for a long time with a horrible disease. Despite all the "Walks for Hope" and "Fun Runs", there is as yet no cure.

  [Brick coughs] 

  Axl Heck : This has been such a life-changing event for me, his brother, Axl Heck, Mrs. Johnson's sixth-period English.

  Brick Heck : It's the not knowing that's the hard part. Oh, and the dying. Actually, they're both hard.

• Frankie Heck : You got nothin'.

  Axl Heck : I know! And Darrin died for two minutes when he was six.

  Sue Heck : What? He did?

  Frankie Heck : His mother never told me this.

  Brick Heck : What happened?

  Mike Heck : When was this?

  Axl Heck : You guys suck.
