The Middle — S03E09 — The Play
2011 · 21 MIN · IMDB 7.5 · 150 VOTES · DIR. Eyal Gordin
Overview
Frankie is thrilled when she learns that the Orson Community Theater is putting on a production of "The Wizard of Oz," and that kids don't need to audition to be munchkins, as they will be automatically cast - which is a perfect scenario for a hapless Sue. But things quickly go awry when Frankie is cast in a singing role and learns the director is not happy with Sue's performance and may cut her from the play. Meanwhile, Brick asks his unreliably quirky Uncle Rusty to attend his school's Special Friends Day - with disastrous results.

00:00:54 Sorry about lacrosse, Sue.
00:01:41 I have lines and everything. Hey, uh, would your kids be interested in trying out?
00:02:35 Shoot, I'm straddling check-check-minus territory here.
00:03:31 I heard that the Orson Community Theater is doing Wizard of Oz...
00:04:18 Yo-ho, let's open up and sing
00:05:14 Well, the kind that puts their dirty dishes in the sink, not on the back of the toilet.
00:06:03 You understand?
00:06:56 I was the only one there without a special friend.
00:07:50 but unfortunately, you're off the play.
00:08:48 And it is for charity.
00:09:37 You know, it's not fair. I'm really loving it, Mike.
00:10:26 Oh, that's good. I gotta write that one down.
00:11:22 Hey. Thought you could use a snack.
00:12:17 why you didn't keep shopping until you found dresses in both sizes.
00:13:10 You've gotta be kidding me.
00:14:11 Uh, I think I'm supposed to tell the principal if I leave the school.
00:14:59 You know, when you said lunch and bowling...
00:15:54 There you go. Now give it a little gas.
00:17:05 Oh. No, he was fine.
00:17:55 well, that doesn't mean that I don't care for you.
00:19:02 that was my thing...
00:19:50 C7 to B6. Got it.
00:21:24 Yeah!
