Quotes

Twin-A-Rooney

So, Rooney Classic, what are you doing later?
I said no because I knew it was Liv.


Kang-A-Rooney

'Sup, Rooney?
Sweet. Hey I'll go as that too then, maybe we could win the couples' costume contest?
Er, and you know when I mean couple I mean the contest category and... well you get it.
WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?
Oh, I thought you meant like 'the night'.
No, sure we can. We're a couple of k/nights! Hah.


Sweet 16-A-Rooney

Well, I'm in. I want Maddie's sweet 16 to be as amazing as it can be.
Don't worry, birthday girl, your hero's here.


Switch-A-Rooney

Don't worry, Maddie, I'll drive you anywhere you wanna go. Seriously, why am I still talking? Why am I still here? I'll go get my haircut.
I'm stoked for Maddie. Having a license, that means she can go anywhere and do anything... that a responsible teenager would do after getting approval from her father. Not that I've ever asked her not to get approval, why am I still talking?


Dump-A-Rooney

'Sup, Rooney?
