    • Gina: It's just that when we were looking at that place today, I realized that I don't want to start my own business. Michael: You don't? Gina: No. It sounds like a lot of work. I mean, don't you realize this is the first time since you were born that I haven't had a ton of responsibility? And don't get me wrong, raising you was the best thing I ever did, but... it was work. Michael: I thought you said I was a really easy kid. Gina: Honey, the therapist told me to tell you that. Edit
    • Joey: Hey, Gina, look, I know what it's like to start something new. When I moved out here from New York... Gina: Oh, I cannot hear this again. People move all the time. Get over it! Edit
    • Alex: I see how nice you are to everyone in the building and to your nephew, and you gave your sister money to start her own business... Joey: How'd you know that? Alex: The walls are thin, and I'm a little nosy. Edit
