Lisa: What, Aunt Patty?
Patty: Oh, nothing, dear. I'm just trashing your father.
Lisa: Well, I wish you wouldn't because, aside from the fact that he
has the same frailties as all human beings, he's the only father
I have. Therefore, he is my model of manhood, and my estimation
of him will govern the prospects of my adult relationships. So I
hope you bear in mind that any knock at him is a knock at me, and
I am far too young to defend myself against such onslaughts.
Patty: Mm hm. Go watch your cartoon show, dear.
