Quote from Marcus

Amy: Hey, Marcus? Who did you vote for for state senate?
Marcus: Jack Peterson. He's pro-freedom and anti-bad guys, and those are two things I can get behind. Hey, are we still on for drinks tonight?
Garrett: Please stop asking us.
Jonah: No.
Amy: We never were.
Marcus: Ah, cool. Well, we'll figure it out later.

Quote from Jonah

Amy: God, people will believe anything with the word "official" on it. [gasps] Do you know what we should do? No, never mind. It's stupid. No, I'm gonna say it. We should make our own pamphlet with the truth.
Jonah: Ooh.
Garrett: A rogue pamphlet? You're crazy, lady.
Jonah: I think that's a great idea, and I have layout experience. I was the editor...
Amy: Editor on your high school-
Jonah: I already told you that story. Forget it.

Quote from Marcus

Marcus: Hey, should we invite Sandra to drinks tonight? Or is it just the core four? [Amy, Jonah and Garrett don't respond] You guys are busy. Everyone's busy.

Quote from Glenn

Dina: Oh, yeah. That's drying up real nice. Did you write yourself in for attorney general?
Glenn: Could've been anyone.

Quote from Dina

Dina: You know what I just realized? There's, like, 50 ballots here. That could change the outcome of a close election, and Missouri's a swing state, so we could be changing the course of history.
Glenn: You think so?
Dina: Sure. Think about it. Right now, you and I could be setting into effect a chain of events that could cause the colonization of Mars or World War III and billions of innocent deaths. [chuckles] You know, it's funny, I try so hard to keep God out of the workplace, and yet, here I am, in the workplace, and I am God.

Quote from Dina

Glenn: Okay. We're just gonna have to face the music and tell Syd.
Dina: We tampered with an election. Do you know how serious that is?
Glenn: It was a goof-up!
Dina: We have to cover our tracks. We've got to come up with an alibi for what we've been doing all day.
Glenn: Okay, uh... We were in my office. And we were working.
Dina: Too vague. The more specific the lie, the more believable it is. Okay, we were in your office because you were telling me about the affair you've been having with your dental hygienist. She likes when you dance for her.
Glenn: I do not want to be having an affair!
Dina: Do you want to go to jail?
Glenn: No!
Dina: Then you've been dancing for Shelley!

Quote from Garrett

Garrett: Oh, you guys looking at porn?
Amy: What? No. We're making the pamphlet.
Garrett: Wow! And they said it couldn't be done. But lo and behold, here you are doing it, making a pamphlet!
Jonah: I feel like he's mocking us. Ooh, what about Palatino?
Amy: Oh, Palatino's nice, actually.
[Garrett goes over to see Marcus]
Garrett: You watching porn?
Marcus: Yup.
Garrett: Mm. Oh, I know that girl.

Quote from Dina

Dina: Bitching color, boo.
Cheyenne: I know, right?
Dina: Yeah, really brings out the blueness of her veins.

Quote from Dina

Dina: Listen, I've been thinking about it a lot lately, and I have decided that you are my best friend in the store.
Cheyenne: Me? Really?
Dina: Yeah.
Cheyenne: Okay, well, you're nice too.
Dina: Yeah, I am nice. Anyway, I've been thinking about it, and I feel like we should just have a good old-fashioned girlfriend gabfest. [chuckles] Maybe you could tell me if you've seen or heard anything suspicious recently.
Cheyenne: Mm. Suspicious?
Dina: Yeah, you know, like... I don't know... if you know of anybody doing anything illegal. Dish, girlfriend! [both chuckle]
Cheyenne: Mm. Um, no.
Dina: Really? 'Cause, you know, there's nothing I hate more than when my best friends lie to me.
Cheyenne: Okay, I have to go. I have to pee really bad. Excuse me. [exits]
Dina: You want me to come with? That's what best girlfriends do, right?
Glenn: Do you think she knows?
Dina: It's hard to say. She's either playing dumb or just is.

Quote from Amy

Amy: So then I rip up my note cards.
Jonah: No.
Amy: And say, "Fellow students, forget these note cards."
Jonah: Going rogue.
Amy: "I'm going to speak from my heart."
Jonah: Okay.
Amy: And then, from the back of the auditorium, Renee yells...
Jonah: No. Mm-mm.
Amy: "Those cards are blank!"
Jonah: Oh! Renee is the worst.
Amy: I haven't even told you about the Winter Ball story...
