Mike: Kim, do you think I'm clueless as a parent? I mean, do I know everything I need to know? Kim: Sorry, Michael. I'm not ratting out your daughter. Mike: A party? Will the parents be home? Alex: Um... probably not. Mike: Sorry, no parents, no party. Alex: Then that mean I can't go to any parties!

Mike: You mean like me? Alex: Such parents are considered deeply cool!
