FAVORITE LINES from THE NAME OF THE BROTHER

Jane Espenson seldom fails to amuse me.

David: “Why are my instincts telling me it’s a bad thing”
(developing Jedi knight’s senses, are we. I have a bad feeling about this)

Grumpy: “‘Cause you’ve seen ‘E.T’ or ‘Splash’ or any other movie where they find something magical and study it to death.”
(uhm, ya, we normal humans are so obnoxiously curious. And watching movies makes paranoid.)

Grumpy: “You do understand, that computer hacking and pickaxing are different?!”
(mnah, it’s nearly the same)

Rumple: “Stiltskin. Rumple von Stiltskin.”
(what, that Scottish 90s post-grunge one hit band still exists?)

Rumple:”What tipped you off? My rosy complexion?”
(nope, the humor)

Victor Frankenstein: “Are you a philanthropist?” – Rumple: “Well, I’ve been called worse.”
(really?)

Rumple (to Cora): “Had hoped you were dead, but hey, disappointment is just part of life. I’m sure we can agree on that.”
(life is such a letdown)

Cora: “The crocodile snaps at the little bird.”
(ouch!)

Cora (to Rumple): “I want you to find the one person in this universe who might still love you. After all I’m doing the same thing.”
(mum and dad of the year)

David: “Got the scent?” Ruby (disgusted): “Boozy”
(hate it too when I’ve to find my boyfriend following his trail of bad scent)

Whale: “Rumplestiltskin says that magic has a price, but from where I am sitting seems that science does too.”
(profound insights)

Ruby: “Look, you’re Frankenstein, and I’m the werewolf.”
(just to be clear here)

Whale: “Thank you, monster to monster”
(monsters stick together)

Emma: “We’re not a group-sheriff”
( just family business)

Belle:”It’s a cup.”
(the simple findings of life are sometimes the best. And sometimes not)

Greg:”Nurse?” – Emma :”Sheriff Swan, actually”
(nope, no nurse and not Dr. Allison Cameron either, it’s the sheriff)

Oh gosh. How could I forget: “I ate my boyfriend.”-Ruby. The recall the Peter was tragic, but this line was just hysterical in the moment.

One of my favorites:

“Murder is a bad first impression.”

This episode had some great lines! In no particular order:

Regina: Emma and Henry and the two idiots

Snow: Anyone else notice he was drunk off his ass?

Red: I ate my boyfriend

Emma: We’re not a group sheriff.

Henry: The monster had bolts, not the doctor (it’s the delivery that was awesome, it was like “duh mom!”)

Emma: Murder is a bad first impression

Emma: Some of us having known him [looking at Snow], it’s weird.

Snow: Maybe doc can do it?
Leroy: haha surgery? HAHHHAHAHAHAHAH ……. NO!

And even though it’s not a line, Emma’s headdesk because I think that was the best part of the entire episode. It was better than a line of “OK Henry enough!” Perfection.
