- Kate: I wish there was a cookbook for life, you know? Recipes telling us exactly what to do. I know, I know, you're gonna say "How else will you learn, Kate?"
- Therapist: Mm. No, actually I wasn't going to say that. You want to guess again?
- Kate: No, no, go ahead.
- Therapist: Well what I was going to say was, you know better than anyone: it's the recipes that you create yourself that are the best.
- Kate: [about Nick] You bring in a sous chef from an Italian restaurant and *I'm* the one in therapy?
- Bernadette: The world is so full of pervs. That guy at table 10 is the worst. Every week, a new bimbo. I swear--he leers at my tits one more time, he's gonna regret it.
- Kate: There's no greater sin than to overcook a quail. Perfectly cooked, they must have a touch of pink on the breast. But you need the right quail. It has to be fleshy or it dries out too easily.
