Quote from Phil
Phil: [on the phone] Do you know where Pepper is?
Ronaldo: He has a special place he goes when he's sad. It's pretty gay. Have you ever seen the movie "La La Land"?
Phil: Of course. Wait, does he go to the bench overlooking the city where Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone tap danced into each other's hearts? That's not so gay.
Ronaldo: Okay.
Quote from Mitchell
Cameron: No, no, no, no, no, no. Take those things off, please. We need to talk about whatever's going on with you right now.
Lily: I'm fine.
Mitchell: No, you're not fine. You're sullen and aloof and... And you embarrassed us in front of KimmyLoveandStu... I can't say it again. I can't.
Quote from Gloria
Jay: Okay, sweetheart. Let's get you inside. I'll throw on a couple of steaks for both of us. What the hell dog is this?
Gloria: It's Stella.
Jay: No, it's not. Eight years, you don't recognize our dog?
Gloria: Well, ten years, and you don't notice one haircut?
Quote from Pepper
Phil: Don't you believe that I like you, though, Pepper?
Pepper: I want to, but maybe I'm just a big, fat mother's purse to you.
Phil: I'm your friend, Pepper.
Pepper: [gasps] What are you doing? This is a yellow suit!
Phil: ♪ Till the end, Pepper ♪
Pepper: You're making a scene! ♪ I know that old line ♪ ♪ But as soon as I sign, he'll toss me aside like ♪ ♪ Yesterday's wine ♪
Phil: ♪ My heart's on my sleeve ♪
Pepper: ♪ I want to believe ♪ This is weird. We're people!
Quote from Pepper
Phil: Look. The only way you're ever gonna find out if we're friends is if you buy that house and see if I stick around.
Pepper: Seems like an expensive experiment.
Phil: Sign the offer, if you love the house. Either that or fire me. It's the only way you're gonna know.
Pepper: [signs My heart is in your...
Phil: I'll see you.
Pepper: I knew it. Assassin!
Phil: [laughing] I'm messing with you. That's what I do with my friends.
Pepper: [laughing] Oh. I see. Delightful. I'm new at straight chummery.
Quote from Jay
Gloria: What is going on with you? I've never seen you like this.
Jay: I don't know. When I was 10, Dad came home with a rescue, and I was so damned excited. But the dog wanted nothing to do with me. Went straight to my sister and never left her side. Then years later, we got a puppy who went right to Dede, growled at me every time I went near her. But with Stella, I didn't even bother trying, and she chose me. Now I may never see her again. I-I-I can't sit here. I need to take a walk.
