Rebecca, have you seen my daughter?
I swear, that girl will be the death of me.
I think our best option is to call the police, see what Accardi can do. She's got my car, so he should be able to track them down.
Preferred portrayal similar to Anjelica Houston’s performance in this excerpt:

Nancy Albright’s mother, a devout atheist, and hopelessly bored.
You know that I’ve never really cared one way or the other.
She’ll be fine. Maybe this is what she needs, to get away from her parents and find herself. Everyone goes through that, especially at her age. Besides, it was getting expensive to pay for all the food she was devouring.
I don’t have time for this.
A solid JFK impression is required for this role, as we will be using both historical footage and newly recorded footage. This will be a bigger role than a simple cameo.
My fellow Americans, we must come together in a strenuous time.
There was an attempt on my life, but those bastards were stopped by a brave American citizen. I have previously said; 'Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.' This young man is the very embodiment of a true American.
Stay strong, and remember. We will prevail!
