Quotes
-
Chuckie Finster : [about Trevor] See? Friends are like holidays - you can never have enough of them.
Dil Pickles : Deep. You make that up?
Chuckie Finster : Nope. I got it off a greeting card.

[Kimi sits on her bed, rapidly opening and closing her hand fan; Chuckie comes in]
Chuckie Finster : Kimi, I'm sorry I screwed up your kabuki thing. You mad?
Kimi Finster : No, especially since I was just as lame as you were. Lamer, even.
Chuckie Finster : It's not a total lose. We could always cash in on our humiliation by submitting the tape to America's Dumbest Home Videos.
[Kimi giggles]
Chuckie Finster : Goodnight. I mean, oyasumi.
[they bow to each other; Chuckie goes to leave, but stops upon noticing Kimi's family tree]
Kimi Finster : I finished it. What do you think?
Chuckie Finster : [studies the family tree] I think...
[crosses his arms]
Chuckie Finster : I think... you're *missing* some *people*!
Kimi Finster : Wha--? Who?
Chuckie Finster : Me and my dad! How come we're not on here? Don't we count?
Kimi Finster : Of course you count!
Chuckie Finster : I spent days practicing kabuki, learnt Japanese, even wore *bird poop* on my face, and I don't get a branch on your family tree? Not even a measly twig? And let me tell ya something, sister! Bird poop is a *lot* thicker... than... *water*!
Kimi Finster : You don't understand, Chuckie! I love you and you'll *always* be my brother, but the truth is... I'm not... a real Finster.
[Chuckie gasps; fade to black]

[last lines; Chuckie is fast asleep; Kimi stands in the doorway and rapidly turns the bedroom light on and off; Chuckie opens his eyes]
Kimi Finster : Time to get up.
Chuckie Finster : [puts on his glasses and groans] It's 5:00AM, and it's Saturday.
[pulls the covers over his head]
Kimi Finster : [approaches Chuckie's bed] Nicole's party is tonight, and from what Susie said, you need all the skating practice you can get.
Chuckie Finster : [tosses and turns under the covers] Oh, why don't you start being a Finster again later?
Kimi Finster : [groans] Brothers.
[pulls the covers off; she and Chuckie pillow fight and laugh; outside view of the Finster house]
Charles "Chas" Finster : Keep it down in there!
Kimi Finster , Chuckie Finster : Sorry, Dad!
[they laugh; fade to black]

Kimi Finster : [talking on the phone whilst laying on her belly on her bed] My great-uncle? No way! Yeah, I wrote it all down. OK, bye, Dad. I love you too.
[hangs up; Chuckie enters with an ink pad and a roll of paper]
Chuckie Finster : Why are you calling Dad on the phone when he's right downstairs?
Kimi Finster : [scoffs] Not that dad, my *other* dad. You know, the one who *looks* like me.
[sits up]
Chuckie Finster : Oh, right. Sometimes I forget. Lose a sock. I need your footprint for my family tree: Finster Feet Throughout the Ages.
[opens the ink pad]
Chuckie Finster : You get pink.
[Kimi takes off her right sock]
Chuckie Finster : So, when are you teaching me how to skate? Nicole's party is, let's see... *soon*!
Kimi Finster : [walks over and presses her barefoot on the ink pad] Oh, Chuckie! I'm just so knee-deep in research, and it's really important to me.
Chuckie Finster : [unrolls his picture of a tree with coloured footprints on it] Well, learning to skate is really important to me!
Kimi Finster : [adds her footprint to the picture] Chuckie, this is my *life* we're talking about!
[sits back down on her bed; Chuckie groans, collects his picture and leaves]
