Quote from Roland

Johnny: Hey, Stevie, what's the intel?
Stevie: Uh well, I had a nap, then a beer, and now I need $40.
Roland: What are you doing, buying a wedding dress?

Quote from Roland

Stevie: Uh, Emir would like me to go to lunch with him.
Johnny: What? No! You don't have to do that!
Roland: Oh, jeez.
Stevie: It's fine, it's just lunch.
Johnny: No, Stevie, this is going way too far.
Alexis: [enters] Um, what's going on?
Roland: Oh, Johnny's forcing Stevie into a very uncomfortable situation with a strange man.

Quote from Stevie

Roland: Stevie, I would go in your place, it's just, my afternoon is gonna be kinda crazy with all the turndowns.
Stevie: No, I want to go! So can I just have the $50?
Johnny: I thought it was $40.
Stevie: I also need shampoo.

Quote from Stevie

Stevie: Okay, you're telling me that you review motels for a living, and you've never met anyone?
Mr. Kaplan: Okay, this may shock you, but, uh, a lot of the people that you meet in motels are not exactly like...
Stevie: Not like what?
Mr. Kaplan: Well, they're not like you.
Stevie: Oh, yeah. Smart, charming, dazzling sense of humour?
Mr. Kaplan: I was gonna say modest, but...

Quote from Stevie

Mr. Kaplan: Okay, I don't even know where to start with this menu.
Stevie: I'm a plant.
Mr. Kaplan: I'm sorry?
Stevie: You were talking about never knowing what's genuine, and uh I can't keep this up. I work at the motel, and my coworkers thought it would be a good idea for me to like, talk up the motel. Uh, but the more we talked, the worse I felt.
Mr. Kaplan: So you cracked before we even ordered drinks?
Stevie: Yeah. It turns out I'm really bad at this.

Quote from Moira

Moira: It's not top secret, we all know Jocelyn has trouble being honest.
Jocelyn: Do we all know that?
Moira: Wrong word, okay. Authentic.
Jocelyn: I think I can take it from here, Moira.
Moira: All right, then.
Jocelyn: Gals, since the baby, things have just been really tough.
Moira: That's good, that's good, expand on that.
Jocelyn: Okay, and I feel like sometimes that my voice isn't being heard in this group.
Moira: Touch louder, Jocelyn.
Jocelyn: Just because I don't ask for your help, doesn't mean that I don't need it!
Moira: Just a little more specific, we're all here to help you.

Quote from Ray

Ray: You'll thank me later, but, uh, no more worrying about door open, door closed. All you have to do is open the curtain to the bathroom!
David: Ray, can we just have a moment?
Ray: Absolutely. I'll just wait in the bathroom. Curtain open, or curtain closed?
David: Oh, closed!
Patrick: Closed, I think.

Quote from David

Patrick: Wait, does this mean that you were ready to move in with me?
David: No.
Patrick: No?
David: No, it's a closet space, and a timing thing.
Patrick: Uh-huh.
David: Yeah. So you know, maybe we can negotiate down the line at some point.

Quote from Ray

Ray: I can barely hear your conversation. Are we sure we want the door?
David: Are you sure?
Patrick: Up to you.

Quote from Moira

Alexis: There's a little piece of press you might wanna read.
Moira: Oh, if I've died again, I swear to God!
