Popularity rank 1 #371. Creepy but noble

April 30, 2010

PETER: Well, for what it's worth, I think adopting that hot 19-year-old orphan was, though CREEPY, sort of NOBLE.

KEVIN: Yeah, I think, in the end, I'm just not fit for organized charity.
PETER: So no more do-gooding?

KEVIN: Oh no, I just need to get back to how I USED to help people.
PETER: How's that?

KEVIN: Having sex with the disadvantaged, man.
PETER: You're one of the good ones, Kev.
