Plot
George Lopez is the manager of Powers Brothers Aviation, an airplane parts factory. He's married to Angie Palmero and has two children, Max and Carmen. They live together in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, California. George had a childhood that was nowhere near perfect, abandoned by his father, he thought was dead, and further traumatized by his careless, abusive, alcoholic mother, Benita "Benny" Lopez. George and Benny's adult relationship mainly consists of the two of them trading insults about each other, mainly referring to George's childhood. You can tell they really love each other, but are too afraid to admit it. Benny also works at Powers Brothers Aviation, as does George's best friend, Ernesto "Ernie" Cardenas, who is mostly luckless in the dating area and still lives with his mom. George's father-in-law, Dr. Victor "Vic" Palmero, thinks Angie should have married someone better than George but as the series progresses Vic begins to respect and accept George. George always tries to catch his kids getting in trouble when they do something bad, whether it be by confronting them straight on, or sneakily investigating, then punishing them later. It is still always shown that George still loves and cares deeply for his family.Main Cast George Lopez as George Lopez Constance Marie as Angie Lopez Belita Moreno as Benita "Benny" Lopez Valente Rodriguez as Ernie

George Lopez: [to Angie] You know what you always say to me when I'm down? A door may have closed, but a window just opened.
Angie Lopez: Am I really that annoying?
George Lopez: Let's not go there while you're down.
Carmen Lopez: Home school! Mom could teach me!
George Lopez: Why should she be punished?
Benny: [to George] It took you forever to read one page in a book!
George Lopez: I was dyslexic!
Benny: Excuses! George, I did the alphabet backwards with the cop's flashlight in my eyes and you could not even find out that Frog & Toad were friends!
George Lopez: Not even professionals could teach Carmen. They're thinking of changing the slogan from "No Child Left Behind" to "She's Not Watching, Run!"

[Benny walks by coughing]
George Lopez: A window just opened!

Angie Lopez: What did you eat?
Max Lopez: Some mints that were in Carmen's room.
George Lopez: Carmen!
Carmen Lopez: What's going on?
George Lopez: Max took some of your mints and they made him sick.
Carmen Lopez: What mints?
Max Lopez: The ones in the little tin in your coat pocket under the bed.
Carmen Lopez: Oh! Those mints. They were probably just stale. How many did you take?
Max Lopez: 5, Monday through Friday.
George Lopez: What do you mean Monday through Friday?
Max Lopez: They were all on a wheel. She had about a month's worth.
Angie Lopez: You're going to be all right, Max. But all the same, I'll call the poison control center.
Max Lopez: What's going on?
George Lopez: You accidentally took some of your sister's birth control pills.
Max Lopez: What's going to happen?
George Lopez: We're going to kill Carmen, and if you're anything like your mother, you'll experience some tenderness around your breasts.
Benny: I didn't want to say anything in front of Carmen, but you can't stop her. When I was sixteen, my dad said he would kill me, and I believed it. And I still did it.
George Lopez: Yeah, well Carmen's not you. She's not willing to do anything for a cheeseburger and a ride home.
Benny: It was raining and it was chicken nuggets. This is how rumors start!
George Lopez: [to Vic] When Angie was sixteen, did you give her the Pill?
Vic: No, I gave it to her sister, Gloria.
Angie Lopez: Why did you give them to Gloria but not to me?
Vic: Because when I said that sex was a serious matter that only had importance in the relationship between 2 loving consenting adults, you listened. Your sister didn't.
George Gets Assisterance - Season 4 Episode: 14
George Lopez: This is LA, you want to learn Spanish? Take a bus.
George Lopez: [to Benny about Linda] If you just open up, show her what you're really like, I guarantee she'll never want to see you again.
Benny: She's not going anywhere. She wants to make me feel guilty and I've got nothing to be sorry about. I couldn't keep both of you, but I made sure she had a good home and nice parents.
George Lopez: Is that what this is about? Deep down, you feel guilty?
Benny: I don't need to hear this from you.
George Lopez: Look, my father wasn't in my life and I always felt like there was something missing because I didn't know him. I'm telling you, Mom, that's how Linda is feeling right now.
Benny: I am nothing like your father was.
George Lopez: If you walk out that gate, you are.
Linda Lorenzo #2: I'll arrange Max to retake the test and then maybe he won't do so well, and I'll be forced to put him back in special ed.
George Lopez: Wow, you're already holding one of your own on your own back. Congratulations, Linda, you are Mexican.
Linda Lorenzo #2: [to George] What are my real parents like?
George Lopez: Well, your father's easy. He left Mom before you were born, I tracked him down last year, I punched him in the face, he asked me for a kidney, and then he died.
Linda Lorenzo #2: And my mother?
George Lopez: Oh, she's hard to describe in a few words. She's a short, bitter drunk... actually, that about covers it.
George Lopez: Max really needs that special ed program.
Linda Lorenzo #2: I can't put Max back in special ed.
George Lopez: What? I just introduced you to your real mother.
Linda Lorenzo #2: And now I owe you?
Benny: Oh, God. I realized I made a huge mistake!
George Lopez: Mom, you said you couldn't keep us both.
Benny: I know! I should have taken her. She's smart, beautiful, has a good job, hell of a woman!
George Lopez: Of course she turned out okay, she was raised by people!
Benny: It's tough being the ugly sister.
Linda Lorenzo #2: [to George] Why don't you want me to meet her? Are you jealous? You don't want to share your mother with me?
George Lopez: Share? I'll trade! I can be Italian.
[in an Italian accent]
George Lopez: Try the canollis! Forget about it! I know a guy! Whatcha! Badd-bing-ho!
Linda Lorenzo #2: That's a stereotype.
George Lopez: What do you care? You're a Mexican.
George's Relatively Bad Idea - Season 4 Episode: 21
Angie Lopez: [to George] Why is my dad kissing your sister?
George Lopez: Did I mention I got the garage paid off?
George Lopez: [when Vic walks in with black eyebrows & mustache] Vic, I'm gonna ask you flat out: when did you fall head first into the La Brea Tar Pits?
Benny: George, George, we were drunk and we were watching boxing, and well, you know how booze and sweaty guys get my horses running.
George Lopez: [looking sickened] Actually, I didn't, but thank you, Mommy.
George Lopez: [to Vic] You're offering me two thousand dollars to set you up on a date with my sister?
Vic: I said one thousand dollars.
George Lopez: I'm selling you my sister, man. Don't low-ball me.
George Lopez: I used to dream that I had a big family like the ones on TV. I remember yelling at the screen, "Eight's not enough, adopt a little Mexican boy!"
Angie Lopez: Daddy's gonna stay here while they tend his condo for termites.
George Lopez: You don't need exterminators, Vic. Just get all the bugs together and tell them stories about Cuba. They'll kill themselves.
Angie Lopez: I should go with Daddy to his cardiologist dinner.
Vic: That is so sweet, but no. It would be too hard for me seeing you in a room full of people you should have married.
George Lopez: Yeah, I guess Angie could have married a cardiologist, got divorced, taken half of his money, hooked up with some young stud... Oh, that's what your wife did. Did I strike a nerve?
Linda Lorenzo #2: [to George] You pimped me out for two thousand dollars?
George Lopez: Why you gotta say it that negative?

Benny: That's not funny.
Angie Lopez: It's no joke. That's why we thought you were dead.
George Drives the Batmobile - Season 5 Episode: 3
George Lopez: [when Benny passes out] We got eight hours until she wakes up, we can leave her in Mexico. We put her in a Pikachu costume, put a sign on her, saying "Beat me, I'm filled with candy!"
George Lopez: [to Benny] I can't believe you never let me drive your car all those years because you were worried about me getting hurt.
Benny: You're not that special, drop it.
George Lopez: Is that why you never let me play football?
Benny: Look, George. If I was going to find a helmet to fit your head, I would have to take out the padding. I was already growing tomatoes out in the backyard, I didn't want another vegetable in the house.
George Finds Therapy Benny-ficial - Season 5 Episode: 6

Rick Martinez: I don't have a dad either. He died when I was a kid.
George Lopez: Well, my mom had to work two jobs and I had a learning disability.
Rick Martinez: Dyslexia?
George Lopez: Yeah. You know, we have a lot in common.
Ernie: Yeah, you two started out the same way and then Rick went to college and did a whole lot better.
Principal Stahler: Studies show that kids with parents who didn't go to college are less likely to go themselves.
George Lopez: So what you saying is we're stupid.
Principal Stahler: Good evening, parents. You're probably wondering why only some of you are here.
George Lopez: Yeah, cuz all the losers stayed at home.
Principal Stahler: You're all here because none of you went to college.
George Lopez: [to Angie] Strike that, Angie. We're the losers.

Veronica Palmero: So did you.
George Lopez: At least I didn't have a full diaper. You see, you don't wanna play this game.
Angie Lopez: Veronica has really changed. Her mother died and all she cares about is the money!
George Lopez: Not all families mourn, Angie. Some just cash in a gold tooth and throw a party.
George Lopez: [after he and Angie find women's underwear, perfume, and earrings in Max's bookbag] We should have seen this coming when he started lining his army men in a chorus line!
George Lopez: [to Max about Veronica] Max, she's your first cousin and you have dyslexia. If you have kids with her, your mom and I will have to pay a dollar to visit our grandkids at the circus.
George Lopez: [to Benny] Why are you treating her so nice? I'm the trustee.
George Lopez: George, George, my little boy. Remember when I used to hold you?
George Lopez: That's cause you were drunk and had the spins. Beat it bat!
George Lopez: I'll take a shot of beer and two olives to shove in my ears so I don't have to listen to these people.
Veronica Palmero: Yeah, my family's easier to deal with after a couple of drinks.
George Lopez: You know, a good bartender just listens.
Veronica Palmero: And a good uncle recognizes his own goddaughter.
George Lopez: Yeah, probably.
Veronica Palmero: We walked home.
George Lopez: Why didn't you take a cab?
Veronica Palmero: I spent all my money!
George Lopez: On what?
Veronica Palmero: I'll give you a hint... I'm kind of like these chips... baked!
George Lopez: You got high?
Veronica Palmero: Whoa, is it just me or have we been talking for like, an hour?
Veronica Palmero: You're just jealous because you're poor.
George Lopez: Oh no she didn't. I'm not poor! I own a house, 3 cars and hundreds of dollars of change somewhere on this property.
George Lopez: I know you don't want to hear it, but this is what dads say.
Veronica Palmero: This is SO unfair.
George Lopez: Oh I know the answer to that one too, who said life was fair?
George Gets Caught in a Powers Play - Season 5 Episode: 15
Angie Lopez: [calls for Veronica] Get down her now, you ungrateful tramp!

Benny: You know, if you were going to give me millions of dollars, I'd give you anything you want, too.
George Lopez: Mom, I've seen guys get you to do things for ten dollars and a tall boy!
George Lopez: [to Veronica after she dresses up in a hot outfit at work] Tomorrow, I want you to dress more appropriate. I don't want you distracting the guys working with dangerous machines. Alberto's down to 7 fingers, he can barely tie his shoes.
George Doesn't Trustee Angie's Brother - Season 5 Episode: 16
Veronica: [about her father leaving after admitting he wanted her inheritance] I can't believe I thought he'd changed. He just used me to get to my money.
George Lopez: Well don't worry, I taped a clock to a couple of road flares and put it in his suitcase. That should really start the party at airport security.
George Lopez: [to Angie] How can you trust Ray after all he's done to your family?
Angie Lopez: Because I try to find the good in people.
George Lopez: That's a really annoying habit.
George Lopez: [to Benny] How come you never told me I had any special talents?
Benny: Oh, I'm sorry, George, you're right. No one can wet the bed better than you!
George Lopez: I'll remember to use my special gift on your grave.
Angie Lopez: [to George] You can never admit you're wrong about something.
George Lopez: That's because every time I do, you go, "That's another one for me," like you're keeping an imaginary score.
Angie Lopez: It's not imaginary. The score is 72 to nothing.
George Helps Ernie See the Cellu-Light - Season 5 Episode: 17
Ernie: All I have is my lucky purple suit from prom.
George Lopez: Lucky? You went with your cousin and she gave birth in the bathroom.
George Lopez: [to Ernie] Hey, don't jump. We're on a fault line.
George Lopez: I'm the manager. It's my job to defend the workers.
Benny: You never defended me.
George Lopez: It's not true. I cleaned the stall in the men's room where all that nasty stuff was said about you.
Benny: What did it say?
George Lopez: I don't remember. I wrote it a long time ago.
Ernie: I'm sorry, George. I just sat down for a minute to rest my knees. I guess I must have nodded off. I don't know why they're bothering me so much.
George Lopez: You know you're supposed to listen to your body, and right now your knees are screaming, "You're crushing us! Eat a salad!"
George Lopez: I just need to think of a way for him to kill his appetite. Mom, do you have any naked pictures of yourself?
[gags]
George Lopez: That last one tasted like hot dog.
Mel Powers: I just got a letter from Ernie's letter saying I'm prejudice against fat people. Does no one remember how big my second wife was?
George Lopez: Oh, yeah, Sheryl. She wore that green dress to the Christmas party and you fired that guy who accidentally put an ornament on her.
George Vows to Make Some Matri-Money - 5 Season Episode: 19
George Lopez: A stressed-out bride is nothing. At the factory, I work with ex-cons, substance abusers, and sexual harassers, and I'm not just talking about my mom. There's other people like that there too.
Benny: We never had wedding planners. All you had to do was get to Vegas, say your vows at the drive-thru chapel, and be on your way.
George Lopez: Well, Brooke's situation is a little different than yours, Mom. First of all, she's not a minor, she's not pregnant, and she knows the last name of the guy she's marrying.
Benny: I knew his last name. I just didn't know he was going to be using it for his other family, too.
Brooke: Everyone else has quit on me. All the good wedding planners are taken. You're my last option.
George Lopez: It's not the first time I've been a girl's last option, and like all the other times, I'll take it.
George Lopez: [to Brooke] You know why God made you so pretty? To cover up all the crazy.
Brooke: [to George] So, this is the first wedding you've ever planned?
George Lopez: Yeah, and you're wearing a white dress. So we both stretch the truth a little.
Ernie: [seeing George making wedding invitations] How long have you been at this?
George Lopez: Six hours. Would've been done faster, but every five minutes or so, I have to look down my pants to remind myself I'm still a man.

Vic Palmero: And leave my father without a briefcase? I don't think so.
George Lopez: We're going to meet the predator at Ernie's apartment and beat the hell out of him.
Benny: You want me to come along for backup?
George Lopez: I would but at Ernie's apartment they don't allow pets.
George Lopez: [shows Freddie a picture] That's my son, Max, my daughter Carmen, my wife Angie.
Freddie: Is that a garden gnome with a cigarette in its mouth?
