Quotes3

  • Seth: Are you just not going to go 'cause you're afraid of Luke?
  • Ryan: That's not what I'm afraid of. Look, your parents taking me in, that's, like, the greatest thing that's ever happened to me. I'm not going to lose it just to kick some guy's ass.
  • Seth: But you could totally kick his ass, right?
  • Ryan: Oh, yeah.
  • Ryan: You knew about this and didn't say anything.
  • Seth: I didn't want to jinx it. Dude, you're a Cohen now. Welcome to a world of insecurity and paralyzing self-doubt.
  • Ryan: I used to want to be an architect.
  • Kirsten: And what do you want to be now?
  • Ryan: Seventeen.
  • Kirsten: Me too.
