- Jill: Well then why are we sitting in bed with chopsticks? We used to eat at a table. I liked eating at a table. And having sex in bed... or on a table. edit »
- Jill: It still kinda feels like I'm just spending the night, you know? But then it doesn't. It's just a little weird.
Mikey: That's 'cause it's her place. You shoulda started someplace neutral. A sort of a Switzerland for shacking up. edit » - Jack: I gave myself time to get lost and then I didn't. edit »
- Jack: I know it's not perfect. In my fantasy version he wouldn't have come yet and I would've had time to get a facial and get a pair of those boobs in a box and a sexually threatening rock star to wear on my arm... And a murder weapon. edit »
- Jill: Moving in with a girl. It's kinda like trading baseball card when you were a kid. You give up a couple of cards you like... you get one card you love. edit »
