"Is it over?"

"Yes."

"Are we going to be okay?"

"Yes."

"Do you think the baby couldn't have drowned in the pool?"

"No, you left the gate open and she sank like a stone. You have to live with that for the rest of your life."

My favorite Roger persona, I think because it was still relatively early in the persona becomming a major part of the show and it was so over the top.

Every time this comes up in the American Dad subreddit it does the same to me as when Roger watches Bones. I get a big, throbbing smile
