-
"Horatio is not the only needy boy… Son, uh, didn't you ever give anybody anything just for the pleasure of it. Something you didn't want anything in return for?"
-

You got 10 out of 12 - Way to make all these TV dads proud! I'll take it considering I missed the first two questions. For #1 Howard Cunningham would have been my last choice so I don't feel to bad about missing that one. And for #2, I narrowed it down to Mike Brady and Ward Cleaver and felt it was more of a Brady-ism than a Cleaver-ism.
