Quotes[]

Fallon: You second-rate mall security guard!
Winston: I don't care what you say to my face, you viper!


Liam: Is there anything special that I can do for you?
Fallon: Actually yes. In order to increase the chances of getting pregnant, I read that it's helpful for the man to pray to the gods of fertility at moment of climax.


Fallon: Uh, whoever, it is. Please go away
(Adam walks in)
Fallon: Adam?
Adam: Did you not say "Come in"?
Liam: Nope. Not even close.
Adam: Well, Blake mentioned something about becoming a grandfather soon, so I just wanted to offer my advice as a trained physician.
Fallon: My advice would be for you to get out.
Adam: I will, but I think you should know the positions that are most conductive to-
Fallon: EW! Get out!


Rita: I've gotten to know Blake, and he'll never stop protecting poor, weak Cristal.
Cristal: My husband loves me.
Rita: He sure does, sugar. Which is why we'll just have to remove him from the equation.


Sam: I know this might seem a little weird, but, uh, please don't stop me because otherwise I might lose my nerve. I, uh, I feel like we had a connection last night at the club, but I almost missed it because I've been focusing on the wrong things in life. Anyway, I, uh, I'm really sorry I blew you off for dinner last night. But I'm really happy you asked me again because I would to go on a date with you.
Daniel: Oh, wow, uh... I'm sorry, but I-I think there's been a misunderstanding.
Sam: A misunderstanding? I... (laughs softly) I thought you wanted to have dinner with me.
Daniel: I do. But only because, well... because you're my son.
