• [after catching his daughter dating a teenage boy] 

  George Lopez : From now on, we're homeschooling you. Whatever we don't know, you don't know. When did the Korean War start? I don't know, and neither do you!

• [Carmen enters the kitchen in frustration] 

  Carmen Lopez : Hahhhh.

  George Lopez : Carmen, it's OK, you're beautiful on the inside, they all don't hate you, you'll find something you're good at, there'll be other boys, you probably need some time alone, see you tomorrow morning honey.

  Carmen Lopez : Dad, I went to, like, 15 stores at the mall. Nobody wants to give me a job.

  George Lopez : Since when are you looking for a job?

  Carmen Lopez : Well, I just got my learner's permit so I'm trying to save up for a car.

  George Lopez : My baby's growing up.

  [kisses her head] 

  George Lopez : Seems like just yesterday you were my little girl on the tricycle. Now you're gonna be a young woman in a car, running over a little girl on the tricycle.

• Angie Lopez : You think your only contribution to this family is a paycheck?

  George Lopez : That's my job in this family, Angie. When I was a kid my mom always complained about how there wasn't a man around to help her with the bills. Look, a man isn't a man unless he's a provider. I'm a hunter! I'm a provider!

  Angie Lopez : A hunter? You can't even give the dog eye-drops!

  George Lopez : If he looked away I could.

• Max Lopez : [Veronica claims she smoked a "fatty"]  What's a fatty?

  George Lopez : One of Ernie's girlfriends. Now go to bed!

• [repeated line] 

  George Lopez : Whapah!

• [having a father-daughter talk while driving] 

  Carmen : Where are we going?

  George : I just want to talk. And the first thing I want to say is I should've punished Max a lot more than I did.

  Carmen : [sarcastically]  Well, I should call the newspaper. "George Lopez Admits When He's Wrong."

  George : [murmuring]  Be the adult, be the adult.

  George : OK, look, maybe I went easier on Max because I know why he peeped. I was a boy. I get that. I don't get you anymore. I did when you were a little girl 'cause you were just like a little boy except you never got caught on your zipper.

  Carmen : Well, I'm not a little boy or a little girl anymore. I'd like a little privacy. And I'd like some respect.

  George : That's fair.

  Carmen : And I'd like my feelings listened to.

  George : Ooh, that's a tough one.

  Carmen : Why?

  George : Because everything's a crisis with you. There are no small problems.

  George : I'm on overload, Carmen. I mean, I thought teenagers were supposed to lock themselves in their rooms and never talk to their parents. I was kinda looking forward to that.

  Carmen : Well, I'm sorry I tell you all my problems.

  George : No, you shouldn't be. I have to get better at this.

  George : Look, I promise to start listening to your feelings if you promise not to have so MANY of them.

  Carmen : Deal.

  George : And don't ever think I love Max more than I love you. 'Cause that's not right.

  Carmen : [voice breaking]  OK.

  George : Why are you crying?

  Carmen : I'm happy.

  George : [voice breaking]  I got you this cellphone to make up for everything. Stop crying.

  Carmen : [crying]  Oh my god. It's a cellphone!

  [hugs George] 

  Carmen : [to the car beside him at the light] 

  George : [crying]  Hey, what are you looking at? We're feeling in here!

  George : Go, man! The light's green.

• George Lopez : Please, Angie!

  [pats his chest] 

  George Lopez : I got this!

• Veronica Palmero : [after being caught shoplifting]  You only gave me $40 to live on. How else am I supposed to get nice things?

  George Lopez : Get a damn job!

  Veronica Palmero : You're just jealous because you're poor.

  George Lopez : [to Angie]  Oh, no she didn't!

• George Lopez : [Benny falls asleep from being drunk]  Okay, hear me out. We have eight hours 'til she comes to. We can get her deep into Mexico. We'll put her in a Pikachu costume. We'll leave her with a stick and a note that says: "Beat me. I have candy inside."

• [repeated line] 

  George Lopez : Dammit, I can never do nothing!

• George Lopez : [answering phone]  Powers Brothers Aviation. May I help you?

  [to Marisol] 

  George Lopez : It's for you.

  Marisol : Hello? Hey, Junior. Nah, that's that fool I was telling you about. No, it's OK. I could talk. I know, huh! I know, huh! I know, huh!

• George Lopez : Angie, I've seen my mom wrestle two cops to the ground with a taser dart in her neck, and you cry when your shoes pinch. Good luck, Bambi!

• George Lopez : Carmen, we need to talk. Come on, let's go for a ride.

  Carmen Lopez : [suspiciously]  Am I coming back?

  George Lopez : As long as you're a tax deduction, you'll always be safe in my house.

• George Lopez : This is L.A. You wanna learn Spanish? Take the bus.

• George Lopez : We're gonna start with a different game tonight. It's called "Bombshells." In the suburbs, it's called "You might wanna sit down for this. It's a shocker." In the hood, it's called "Oh, no, you didn't!"

• George Lopez : Why've you had a grudge against your brother for 15 years?

  Benny : We Lopezes are a proud people.

• George Lopez : Hey, how was church?

  Angie Lopez : Fine. Father Rick called you "one of the angels among us" 'cause you're donating a kidney to your dad.

• Carmen Lopez : Hey, I'm gonna be a good driver, but I really need my own car.

  George Lopez : Y'know, look, if you really want a car that bad I could help you find a job.

  Carmen Lopez : Really? Where? Please tell me it's the record store, the clothing store. Oh my god, is it a receptionist at a male modeling agency?

  [mockingly] 

  George Lopez : Well, I could make a phone call. Y'know after I stopped modeling, I did keep up my contacts.

  [primping in a mirror] 

  George Lopez : And Travis so owes me.

  Carmen Lopez : Dad.

  [her father in a primping zone] 

  Carmen Lopez : Daaaad.

  George Lopez : Huh?

  Carmen Lopez : Where's the job?

  George Lopez : I'll talk to Mr. Carillo.

  Carmen Lopez : Mr.--No! Not Mr. Carillo! I don't wanna work in some crappy dive folding burritos!

  George Lopez : Hey, I worked there all through high school, OK? You'd be lucky to have a boss like Mr. Carillo.

  Carmen Lopez : What if one of my friends see me working there?

  George Lopez : Hey, it'd be less embarrassing than being a senior and rollerskating to all the parties.

  Carmen Lopez : OK, I'll do it.

• [when their daughter is late coming home from school] 

  George Lopez : OK, I'm here. Have you found Carmen yet?

  Angie Lopez : No, And I'm worried sick. It's her first day at a new school, and she should've been home an hour ago.

  George Lopez : Yeah, and you're wearing a white dress, so we both stretched the truth a little.

• Ernie : [to Brooke, George's wedding client, in a queer-like voice]  Hi, I'm Len. I'm the chunky assistant, and I'll be doing your fitting. Oh, and don't worry if you get naked 'cause I'm gay!
