Quote from Haley

Alex: I can't handle a big family talk about this.
Haley: We're not gonna have a choice. So when they start talking, just smile and nod and think about something else.
Luke: Yeah, it's easy. Just like at school.
Haley: Yeah.

Quote from Claire

Claire: So I guess what I'm saying here is that as you get older and explore your sexuality you will discover that as long as you are in a committed relationship with consenting adults, there's really nothing to be embarrassed about.
Phil: And let's face it. Your mom can't keep her hands off me whenever the gun show comes to town.
Luke: Good one, Dad.
Alex: Humor makes difficult situations easier.
Claire: Wow. Really?
Haley: Totally. You talked to us on our level but without being condescending.
Claire: We did.
Phil: All right. I guess we did.
Claire: Huh! Yay us! I think we really handled that well.

Phil: It always is. Mmm. [Phil and Claire kiss]
Haley: Hey, Mom, can I get- Oh, my God! Enough!
