John Mulaney: Stevie

Quotes 

  • Stevie : Okay. Um... Listen. Everyone's asking what this... What is the seven fishes or why do we do it?

    Donna Berzatto : Mm-hmm.

    Stevie : And I think I know what my definition is. Uh, as soon as I think of it. It's a chance to... be together and to take care of each other. And to eat together. And there's seven fishes, which means you have to make seven entirely different dishes. Seven entirely different ways. And that takes a lot of time. And... I think spending that time and using that time on the people that we love is how we show them that we love them. And maybe we eat too much... and we definitely drink too much and we say too much without listening. But... tonight we... we're gonna eat seven fishes... which is absurd. Uh... But we have to take extra time to do it and we have to chew more and we have to listen more. And, uh, we only get to do this tonight one time. So... I, by the way, love it. I love being here. Thank you for having me every year at this. I look... I very much look forward to this. And I love you. I'm very in love with Michelle. And I'm not gay like you guys asked a lot. But I was thinking about what... what you said about bears and how they're aggressive. They're aggressive, but they're kind. They're sensitive. You guys have been so kind to me. You let me hang out with you every holiday. I don't have a family like this and... I'm really grateful that, um, you make space for me at this table and you make time for me on the holidays. May God bless us and keep us safe in the New Year. And please give Michael the strength not to throw that fork. Amen.

  • Michael Berzatto : I threw the fork, Lee. See what I did, I threw the fork!

    Richard 'Richie' Jerimovich : Cousin, you're scaring the normals.

    Michael Berzatto : This is fine, this is nothing. This is... it's nothing.

    Stevie : Hey Mikey, can you hear me right now?

    Michael Berzatto : Not right now, Stevie.

    Richard 'Richie' Jerimovich : Cut it out.

    Uncle Lee : Rich.

    Michael Berzatto : Here look, here's the thing: you see, I can throw forks, 'cause this is *our* father's house. *My* father's house.

    Cousin Michelle : We have liftoff.

    Uncle Lee : Okay, you got everyone's attention, so go ahead, tell us a story we've all heard a million times already.

    Michael Berzatto : That's good, Lee.

    Uncle Lee : Yeah, tell a story about how you're living with your mom, and you're borrowing money off of her and any other sucker who'll listen to your bullshit.

    Uncle Jimmy : Lee shut the fuck up.

    Uncle Lee : You're one of the suckers, Jimmy! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I told him! I told him not to listen to you, I told him not to help. I told him to tell you to go scratch!

    Uncle Jimmy : Thanks a whole fucking lot, buddy. You come back next year, okay? Motherfuck.

    Michael Berzatto : Shh, shh. Unc, it's fine.

    Uncle Lee : Yeah, it's fine. It's just totally fine. It's fine. It's fine, because this guy's nothing, and he's nobody, and I know you're scared and you're afraid, aren't you, Michael? And Michael, I don't know what the fuck you're on, but whatever it is, if you can hear me through the *fog*, throw another fork at me, you're gonna get fuckin' rocked!
