Quote from Alex
Claire: Wow, that is so gross!
Jay: More like gutsy. You got to get your hands dirty to build a company from the ground up. I'm proud of you, Luke.
Alex: Uh, hold on. It was my idea to start buying thrift-store shoes. I expanded the business and doubled our profits.
Claire: You see what Alex did? She grew the business. She took it to the next level. She was able to achieve what Luke couldn't despite years of trying.
Luke: It's really only been a few-
Jay: You can't grow what doesn't exist!
Alex: Okay. Well, they're on their thing now. Just walk away.
Quote from Jay
Jay: Do you know how long I've been with this company? Seven presidents.
Claire: And four popes. Yes, Dad, I saw the movie.
