Kitty: I could look after Cooper and Paige...
Sarah: No way! Our children are Democrats! (edit) Tommy: Everybody else might sit around and feel bad for you, but I won’t.
Justin: Look, I didn’t ask for your sympathy and I certainly didn’t ask for your help.
Tommy: When are you gonna grow up-
Justin: You are a piece of work, just like dad.
Tommy: Get off me. I’m not like him. Dad never stopped caring about what you did with your life. I do. I stop right now. I stop today.
(edit) Kevin: Do you think it makes me feel good the rest of the family have a life and I have nothing?
Nora: Nothing? What, you have a mother who loves you-
Kevin: Yes, I have a mother who loves me, I also have a mother who is terrified of being alone and thinks it's her gay son's job to fill some void that even dad knew better than to try and fill. (edit) Kitty: Oh Cooper. Where did you get that?
Cooper (licks fudge bar and smiles): I hate you. (edit) Nora: I've never come into one of these places before. Hospital chapel, it always seemed so generic and lame. Oh all the hospital emergency rooms I've been to with you kids. Tommy with his broken arm and his broken ankle. You and your asthma. It was so scary! You remember Kevin and Sarah and the super glue mess?
Kitty: Yeah.
Nora: Justin. Oh..Justin...*sighs* I'm so worried about us.
Kitty: About you and me?
Nora: All of us. The family. I don't know how we're going to get through this...so much is changing since your father died. It feels like everything we swallowed down or papered over or chose to ignore or put off fixing is coming out to haunt us. (edit)
