Quote from Schmidt

Nick: All right, I'm sorry, okay? You're so quiet. You're having a terrible time.
Julia: I don't mean to be. I'm probably just intimidated. I'm sitting right next to the inventor of bro juice.
Nick: I get it, okay?
Julia: That's... I'm gonna brag about that.
Nick: I did. I invented bro juice, okay? And now you want... You're done.
Julia: What?!
Nick: I get it. When we get off the bus, it's over, I blew it.

Nick: And what was, like, all this stuff you...?
Julia: It's martial arts. I started doing martial arts, ironically, because I thought it would give me a little bit more Zen in my life. You must be really freaked out right now.
Nick: Yes, I am really freaked out.
Julia: I'm so sorry.
Nick: I hate that I'm so turned on by your craziness, but I, um...
Julia: Go with it.
Nick: I'm going with it.
