Best Quotes


 

Kelly: Just so you know, you’re ruining my life.
Brenda: Well, thank you for sharing. Where’s your uncle?
Kelly: I don’t know. The string I tied to him broke.
Brenda: Chill with the smart mouth, okay?


 

Brenda: Where you been?
Reggie: I was just saying some last-minute goodbyes.
Brenda: Really? Because you smell like you’ve been smoking weed.
Reggie: What? You tripping. That’s my new body spray.


 

Reggie: Now what kind of uncle shares a joint with his teenage niece?
Kelly: The kind sitting right in front of me.
Reggie: One and done. Puff and pass.


 

Brenda: Heavenly Father, please bless and protect us on our journey to our new life. In your name, we pray. Amen.


 

Kelly: Mom, what’s wrong?
Brenda: Nobody has said a word in three and a half hours.


 

Brenda: And I was hoping we could be like other families and converse. You know, talk.
Kelly: No. Why?
Brenda: Because that’s what families do on car trips. Yeah, I know, right? It’s crazy. But people joke. They sing songs. They play car games.
Reggie: No, that’s what they do in the movies.
Cam: Yeah. Mom, I think you’ve mistaken this for 1983.


 

Cam: My declarative statement is moving to Texas sucks.
Kelly: I agree. Look at that! End of conversation, right?
Reggie: That’s right.
Brenda: You got that. Whatever. Bunch of lightweights.


 

Cam: Question is, do any Black people live in Houston, or will it just be us?
Brenda: Do any Black people live in Houston? What? You ain’t heard of Megan Thee Stallion? Yes, you have. I know you have. How about Destiny’s Child?
Cam: Who was they?
Brenda: Willie D!
Reggie: Scarface.
Brenda: Scarface, see? Geto Boys.
Cam: I don’t even know who those people are.
Brenda: Come on.
Cam: Who are those people?
Brenda: You need to study hip-hop history.


 

Reggie: Well, this is some serious Area 51 s**t out here. Y’all know what happens next, right? The car’s going to stall out, then we’ll get hit by a tractor beam, and lifted up in a UFO.
Kelly: Oh, my God.
Reggie: Next, we’ll be strapped down on our stomachs with big-eyed aliens probing our a**.
Cam: They won’t do that to you, Uncle Reggie.
Reggie: Why not?
Cam: Because the aliens only want to study intelligent life-forms.


 

Reggie: Intelligence can be such a burden sometimes.
Kelly: Yeah. Especially to the people around you.


 

Kelly: You know we love you. Okay? You’re our little teddy bear.
Reggie: Get off. Get off me. Whatever. I just ain’t lived up to my full potential yet. One day, I’m going to surprise every damn body. Even myself.


 

Brenda: It’s a different world out here.


 

Cam: Those guys today, were they going to hurt us?
Brenda: I don’t think so. They were mean, stupid white boys, doing what mean, stupid white boys do.

Cam: Are we homeless people?
Brenda: What?
Cam: Because technically, we don’t have a home.
Brenda: Listen, little man. It’s not your job to worry about things like that. It’s your job to be a kid, and it’s my job to be your mom, and make sure that you and your sister are taken care of. Okay?


 

Cam: Will we ever have a home again?
Brenda: We will. But, you know, a house ain’t a home. Home is us. You, Kelly, Reggie, me. As long as we’re together, none of us are ever homeless.


 

Reggie: Family announcement. Nobody, I mean, nobody go in that bathroom for at least two hours. It’s probably smart to wear a hazmat suit too. Just a fair warning. Do I look lighter?


 

Brenda: Everybody, just get some sleep. We got a long day ahead of us on the road tomorrow.
Kelly: Yeah, like I’ll sleep when Reggie starts snoring.
Reggie: Hey! Now you know I don’t snore.
Kelly: And Kim Kardashian’s butt is real.
Cam: Uncle Reggie, on the Richter scale, you’re like an eight point five.
Reggie: You know y’all are adopted, right?
Cam: What?


 

Reggie: [as they hear noises from the next room] What the hell is going on? Somebody throwing a party or something?
Brenda: It’s four in the morning, Reg.
Reggie: That’s when the best parties get started.

Hammers: I want to talk to the folks staying next door.
Officer: Nice family of four. I let them go, sir.
Hammers: Let them go?


 

Hammers: Son, how many murders have you investigated?
Officer: One.
Hammers: If that family can ID the killer’s voice, then they are in danger. And you’re going to have four more murders on your conscience. I need to talk to that family.


 

Hammers: [over phone] I need you to come back.
Brenda: I’m sorry, Captain. I just want to get my family as far away from that motel as possible.

Brenda: [referring to the bag of money Reggie took] Have you lost your damn mind?
Reggie: Bren, the dude was dead. I mean, like his heart had stopped.

Reggie: This money could save our lives.
Brenda: It can end our lives!
Reggie: Bren, just say thank you. Stop looking on the dark side.


 

Reggie: [referring to the bag of money] He ain’t going to coming back for this.
Brenda: And what if he does? Huh? What, are you going to turn into some street gangster? Instead of the assistant manager at Chick-fil-A?
Reggie: Hey, that’s an elite position. Okay? I had to work my way up to that. You know how many drug tests I had to pass? That hurt.


 

Brenda: We are not criminals.
Reggie: We the next best thing. We Black.
