The family must decide what to do with Grandpa when he becomes... less mobile. But Richard gives them the pep talk they need.

FROM THE SCRIPT:

Richard:
"Dwayne. Go around outside."

Sheryl:
"Richard... What are you thinking?"

Richard:
"We'll take him with us."

Sheryl:
"No, Richard. No. That's not going to happen."

Richard:
"He's better off with us than with these people! (To Dwayne) Go under the window. Frank, you go with him."

Sheryl:
"Dwayne, don't you dare! (To Richard) Look: you stay here. We'll take Olive. Frank'll drive!"

Richard:
"Who's gonna push the bus to get it started, huh? One stoplight and you're screwed. Listen to me everyone! If there's one thing Grandpa would have wanted, it's to have Olive perform at the Little Miss Sunshine pageant. I believe we'd be doing a grave disservice to his memory if we gave up now. There's two kinds of people in the world: winners and losers. And what's the difference? Winners don't give up. So what are we here? Are we winners? Or losers?"

Go to "Favorite Thing #3: The Cop Who Loved Porn."

Family transcendental lunacy!

What really cracked me up here was that Richard, when trying to be assertive and rally the troops, asks "Are we winners, or are we losers?" in a WHISPER...!

This was one of my favorite scenes. It was hilarious that they even THOUGHT about taking their dead grampa with them. I loved it.
