You know what really makes me cry? The scene on the roof with Rolf in The Sound of Music. When he was in the gazebo with Liesl, he promised that he-eed, take ca-are, of herrrrr, and now he's ready to turn the whole musical, patriotic family in to the marauding Nazis. The heartbreak!

Just broke the Nazi rule. And who can forget the final scene with Tod Langdon playing a handicapable man fighting corruption in "Rolling Tall"?
Scott (S): [on a podium behind a lectern and a microphone] Now I'm not against helping the handicapped. It's just that I'm tired of lining up for a restaurant on a slant. Okay. So we take down all the wheelchair-accessible ramps and replace them with large bumps. Large bumps!
People in room: [chanting] Large bumps!
Scott (S): Thanks kids.
Woman: [in a wheelchair at the back of the room next to Mark who is also in a wheelchair and holds a little girl on his lap] BASTARDS!
Mark (TL): No! No. Think! Alright. I wanna say something! Large bumps?!? I mean if you put large bumps on the sidewalks and streets of this city you're condemning every handicapped person into this town, man! And for what? SO THE LOCAL BUMP MANUFACTURER CAN MAKE MORE MONEY?! Well if that's your idea of AMERICA then count me out. I'm not the one that's handicapped. YOU'RE the ones that are handicapped... [pointing to his heart] IN HERE!
