The Christmas Wall (2014)

Neil Flynn: Mike Heck

Quotes 

• Frankie Heck : Come on, let's just check out our choices. We have trees with lights already on. Trees that look like they're covered in snow. And, you know, it's good for the environment 'cause they're made out of plastic.

  Sue Heck : I like the pink one.

  Mike Heck : This is the tree we're gonna have until we die. It's not going to be pink.

  Brick Heck : Fake trees are weird. They don't smell like Christmas.

  Axl Heck : If being weird was a reason not to take things home, we would have left you at the hospital.

  Brick Heck : You did.

• Frankie Heck : Blue "A" goes into red "B". I showed you the chart.

  Mike Heck : Mm. This is so much less joyful than killing a tree.

• Mike Heck : It's funny - for me I always kind of enjoyed the Christmas stuff.

  Frankie Heck : Hmm.

  Mike Heck : I didn't really get that in my house growing up. I mean, after my mom died, it was just a bunch of guys. Nobody was gonna decorate. In fact, I didn't really ever celebrate Christmas until I met you. Anyway, I'm sure the kids will be up early. I'm gonna go to bed.

  Frankie Heck : Aw, crap.
