Uncle Ed Quotes in How to Eat Fried Worms (2006)

Adam: Oh, hi Uncle Ed.

Uncle Ed: What's this?

Adam: I was just givin' you a hand in here.

Uncle Ed: Last time you tried to give me a hand, you almost chopped your thumb off!

Uncle Ed: [in a hospital hallway] What's this I hear from Stephanie about you becoming a policeman?

Billy Costigan: You mean Stephanie, who was the only one who came to my father's funeral? That Stephanie?

Uncle Ed: Yeah, *that* Stepanie.

Billy Costigan: Nothing much to it, Uncle Edward.

Uncle Ed: Are you trying to prove something to the family?

Billy Costigan: When you say "the family," who do you mean exactly? You?

Uncle Ed: You always have to question everything, don't you?

Billy Costigan: Maybe it would have done you some good to have some *questions* from time to time, you know? "Am I an asshole? Are my kids a mess? Is my wife a money-grubbing whore?" I mean, those are questions, right? "Have I ever been good to my dying sister or am I just now pretending to be?"

Uncle Ed: Do you need some money for the funeral?

Billy Costigan: When my mother dies, we don't have any more connection.
