The Ziff Who Came to Dinner/Quotes


 * [Lenny] tells about being in The Re-Deadening ...]

I had a small speaking role. Yeah, I went to visit him and was banned from the set. Mr. Leonard, how did you get in a movie? Classic Hollywood story. The director saw my photo in a medical book.


 * [At the movie ...]

I'm scared! Relax, stupid. Everything you see is make-believe. Although it is based on a true story. [ominously] Some of which happened in this very theater.
 * [Homer happily looks up and continues watching the movie, smiling as the kids look on in fear.]


 * [The movie scares the kids so badly that they hide under their seats. Lisa comes out to talk to Homer.]

Dad, I don't like this movie. Can we go home? Oh, honey, don't be scared. Look, they killed the evil doll!
 * [A bloodcurdling scream comes from the screen. Lisa groans, shudders and returns to hiding under her seat.]

[nonchalantly] Well, what do you know? It's unkillable!

Doesn't your father ever read to you? [light-heartedly] He tried once, but he got confused and thought the book was real. [suddenly serious] He's still searching for that chocolate factory. It consumes him.
