Eric Peterson: Oscar Leroy
Quotes
-
Oscar Leroy : Why do you suddenly want to learn guitar?
Brent Leroy : You are aware I was the lead guitarist in a band all through high school.
Oscar Leroy : And now you want to learn how to play the thing? You should have thought about that back then when it could have done some good.
Brent Leroy : Thanks. Oh, by the way, the Father of the Year committee called. It's between you and Fred MacMurray.

Oscar Leroy : [to the father of Brent's guitar teacher] Tell your kid to stop filling my kid's head with rock 'n' roll dreams!
Mr. Dillems : Who's your kid?
Oscar Leroy : Brent! The big one. Big head. This high, this wide. Wears jeans.
Mr. Dillems : Oh, the beginner? I always thought he was weird, but now that I see his old man, it all makes sense.
Oscar Leroy : What's that supposed to mean?
Mr. Dillems : It means you're a nutcase, and I don't want you or your weirdo son taking lessons from my kid.
Oscar Leroy : Well, I won't let my kid hang out with your kid, because your kid has a jackass for a father and comes from a long line of jackasses!
Mr. Dillems : You can't insult my whole family like that!
Oscar Leroy : Your whole jackass family!

[he sees a man standing by the trees]
Oscar Leroy : Corky? Corky Dillems?
Corky Dillems : I'm talking to my kid and he tells me that you called him, and my whole family, a whole bunch of jackasses.
Oscar Leroy : [laughing nervously] I didn't know it was *your* family, Corky!
Corky Dillems : Or maybe you don't think I'm as tough as I used to be.
Oscar Leroy : Oh no, no, no, no, no, no... You've always been pretty tough.

[Oscar is struggling to build a wooden fence around Emma's garden, Brent stands behind him]
Brent Leroy : It's just... I'm not learning anything from this kid! He doesn't know half of what I know.
Oscar Leroy : Well, the important thing is that you gave up. Now pass me the hammer.
Brent Leroy : I bet he couldn't play 80s rock as good as me.
Oscar Leroy : Yeah, too bad for him. Pass the hammer!
Brent Leroy : [walking away] Yeah, I should go over there, blow his doors off with some heavy thrash metal!
Oscar Leroy : Less yammer, more hammer!
