One of my favorite and Best lines in the movie, also showing John's true comedic genius and timing and just overall funny wit! Typical John. The dinner table scene, as is:
*Mr. Reese*
"Like I was saying, how much money do you make in a year?"
*John*
"Oh!! (mouth full of food..while talking) Inna year?!....I uh-I'd
say anywhere from thirty to uh...11,000 a year sir..but I invest very
heavily in stock"
...
*Mr. R.*
"Yeah? Who's yur investor?"
*John*
"Oh it's..it's a..you wouldn't know em'."
*Mr. R*
"Really?"
*John*
"(dramatic whisper of impossibility) Nooooo"
*Mr. R*
"Come on ..who is it? I know alot of small firms"
*John*
"It's just that there uh-new almost and uh (*stalls to think) they
... go by the name of-of ..uh (*Puts fist with napkin to forehead in quick
attempted wit to think on the spot*) S-smith and and Andy...n' Opey
..aAAAHHGH!! (*Falls back in chair, breaking it*)
*Mr.R*
"You-you clumsy Ox!! Do-did you see what you did?!"
*Nancy Reese (John's Fiance)*
"He Didn't mean to break the chair!"
*Grandma Reese*
"Heee's TOO FAT!"
I crack up everytime I think of this scene. Can't help NOT TO :)
R.I.P. John C.
