Sonya Eddy: Senora Porter

Quotes 

• Axl Heck : Schmula. It's our sacred day of remembrance.

  Senora Porter : You're Jewish?

  Axl Heck : I don't think it's legal for you to ask me that.

  Senora Porter : Okay. Then why does being Jewish preclude you from taking the test?

  Axl Heck : If I get what "preclude" means, Schmula is our day of silence in honor of the harvest.

  Senora Porter : In that case, Senor Heck, I'd be willing to come in on Saturday, and you can make up the test then.

  Axl Heck : Thank you for accommodating me, but, unfortunately, I have to go to a funeral.

  Senora Porter : I'm sorry to hear that. Who died?

  Axl Heck : My aunt. Her name's Betty Robinson. She was 97. She went off a bridge. It's right there in the paper. You can look it up.

  Senora Porter : [checks paper]  Oh my gosh, Axl, I'm so sorry.

  Axl Heck : She shouldn't have been texting. Her last one was "Record Matlock". She'll never see that episode a fourth time.
