Mrs. Frink I just want the best for my child, Octoparrot.

Professor Frink - Angry I knew Octoparrot would create a divide between us!
Octoparrot *brawk* I choose neither of you in the divorce!

Mrs. Frink - Annoyed Yeah, doing what? Robotics?
Professor Frink - Angry Robots are the future!
Mrs. Frink - Annoyed You just built another robot bartender didn't you?

Mrs. Frink - Surprised But how? I've been so careful!
Ned Well, your octoparrot has been spraying ink all around town.
Ned - Confused But you can all relax. Some archaeologists just discovered a new stash of early Christian manuscripts — the Deader Sea Scrolls.
Ned - Happy And in it, there's a new gospel that says abominations are okay as long as they're cute!
Mrs. Frink So our little Octo is safe?
Ned - Baby Talk Who's the cute little octoparrot, who?
