Maurice LaMarche: The Abdicator, Director

Quotes 

• The Abdicator : Last night I couldn't sleep I kept thinking about what that clumsy kid said to me the other day. About how he always looked up to the Abdicator.

  The Abdicator's Agent : Forget it it's no big deal. Every star has one or two disgruntled fans

  The Abdicator : I was so troubled that I woke up my neighbor to borrow a dictionary and look up the meaning of Abdicatior. It means to give up responsibility. Abandon your position without fulfilling your duties. I couldn't believe it. It left me haunted. This morning I was so upset I could hardly workout.

  The Abdicator's Agent : Look Maurice, darling. You're not a real hero. You just play one on TV.

  The Abdicator : That's what I told that kid. But somehow it's not a good enough answer! Kids need a hero to look up to. That little kid looked up to me, and I failed him. I Abdicated my duties! I need to take a walk.

  The Abdicator's Agent : Maurice! Wait!
