- Molly: What about Jaden?
Kenny: Kids are resilient.
Molly: Then why are there so many screwed up adults? edit » - Molly: (voice over) Like the scarecrow, Joan is the brains of our little group. She's my oldest friend. She hates it when I say that. That's why I say it. Rodney isn't so much cowardly as he is a commitment phob. he's also the only friend paid by the hour. Cricket is all heart. Her adopted brood looks like an add for the United Colors of Bennetton. edit »
- Molly: I wonder what an appendix weights... (voiceover) You think I'm kidding. I have a rich inner life. My other life isn't too shavy either. These are my work clothes: Chanel, Dior... I may not go to an office but I put in 16 hour days. I wonder if Manolo Blahnik makes a bunny sleeper... edit »
- Molly: Thank you for saving my life.
Sam: Let's see if it's a life worth saving... edit » - Molly: That's Hollywood...
Lou: And you got out.
Molly: I was kicked out.
Lou: Lucky girl... edit » - Lavender: Molly Kagan?
Molly: Oh God, is it that obvious? How did Joan describe me? No longer young, tossed away, first wife, fleeing from the life she can no longer have?
Lavender: Black Lincoln Navigator, licence 6GQH523.
Molly: Oh good, clever... Cause I don't want your pity.
Lavender: That works for me since I've got 50,000 dollars worth of student loans and my grandma and I might be evicted because of her dog. edit » - Molly: (voiceover): I'm glad I'll have a few days with Joan before she leaves. It'll be healing. Like putting alcohol on the wound. Literally and figuratively. edit »
- Molly: So, I had a dream last night.
Joan: Oh God, can we eat first? edit » - Molly: My charities have dropped me. All of my lunches have canceled. My club has revoked my membership. Can they even do that? Are they even allowed to do that?
Joan: Legally, it's Kenny's membership.
Molly: Oh, legally schmegally! edit » - Rodney: Step back everyone, she's just a little cranky!
Molly: Of course I'm cranky, I haven't eaten in twelve years! edit » - Kenny: It's over. You gave it your best shot.
Molly: My best shot? What? I failed my job evaluation? I work 24/7 making sure that Kenny Kagan never has to remember or do anything that he doesn't wanna do... and I do it all with perfect hair! edit »
