Charlie McDermott: Axl Heck

Quotes 

• Frankie Heck : Sue, what happened to your face?

  Axl Heck : She was born that way.

  Frankie Heck : Axl.

  Sue Heck : I didn't make ball girl.

  Frankie Heck : Oh, I'm sorry, honey.

  Sue Heck : I got hit in the face with a racket.

  Axl Heck : Stupid.

  Frankie Heck : Axl.

  Axl Heck : No, not her. Me. Stupid for giving my jersey to Sophie.

  Frankie Heck : [perking up]  Oh, really? What do you mean?

  Axl Heck : She doesn't like me.

  Frankie Heck : Oh, that's terrible.

  [voiceover] 

  Frankie Heck : Oh, that's awesome! Here was my opening. I was gonna get that jersey, and I was gonna get Axl to give it to me.

  [to Axl] 

  Frankie Heck : So what happened?

  Sue Heck : I got hit when I ran out on the court to get the ball, but the point was still going on.

  Frankie Heck : Oh, honey.

  [turns to Axl] 

  Frankie Heck : No, to the jersey, I mean. Did you, you know, get it back?

  Axl Heck : No.

  Sue Heck : After the guy hit me with his racket, he smashed into me and knocked me into the net.

  Frankie Heck : [to Sue]  Oh, honey, that's horrible.

  [to Axl] 

  Frankie Heck : Don't you think you should ask her to give it back? You know, for closure?

  Axl Heck : Nah. Not worth it.

  Sue Heck : And after he knocked me into the net, my braces got stuck in the strings. The nurses had to cut me out with nail scissors.

  Frankie Heck : [to Sue]  Oh, sweetheart, gosh, sounds like it just wasn't meant to be.

  [to Axl] 

  Frankie Heck : I don't know. I think you might want to get it back. It's your jersey and it's very valuable. There could be someone out there who wants it very badly.

  Axl Heck : Wait. You think I could sell it?
