Show and Tell: The Diner Edition
One of the things I enjoy the most about QAF, especially in the early seasons,
was the way "the gang" met up in the Diner. I think some of the best
interactions between characters occurred there, and so many clues to what was
going on inside a storyline were shared with us, the viewers, if we paid close
attention to what was going on in the Liberty Diner.

One of my favorite diner scenes is from episode 108. After Justin's Dad
beats the crap out of Brian everyone ends up in the Diner, even though
before the attack they all seemed to be heading off on their separate ways for
the rest of the night.

We see Justin embellishing his part in the drama, Brian petulantly trying to bring attention back to his trauma, and we find out, also in a dramatic way, that Debbie has been overworking trying to make ends meet. We get a whole lot of information, a whole lot of snappy dialogue all in the space of about two minutes.

Now it's your turn. ;)

Show me some of your favorite diner scenes and tell me why.

	Yes, that's the one. When he says he knows about diapers... "He liked wearing them while I spanked him." I LOVE how Justin goes "gross" and Debbie counters, "kinky." (Reply to this) (Parent)
