Amy Quote #184
Quote from Amy in Part-Time Hires
Amy: So apparently, Emma loves her dad now.
Jonah: That's... terrible?
Amy: No, I mean, obviously, I want her to love her dad, but she's been pushing me away, and all of a sudden, they're like besties.
Jonah: I thought Latinos don't care if their kids like them.
Amy: I really think you're painting with too broad a cultural brush here.
Jonah: No, that was...
Amy: First, it's that he's more fun, then she's gonna want to live with him, and before you know it, it's, "Sorry, Mom, can't make it to your birthday party. I'm too busy listening to Churchill speeches with Dad."
Jonah: Oh, that would be a crazy coincidence.
Amy: I don't know. Maybe I... maybe I should be a little less strict with her, at least until I'm number one again.
Jonah: [scoffs] You're an intense mom. I do not want to be around when Emma starts dating.
Amy: Why would you even mention that?!

Quote from Carol
Carol: Wanna hear a secret?
Kelly: Sure.
Carol: I have a plan to get Jerry back.
Kelly: I'm sorry. I don't know who...
Carol: Sandra's boyfriend. Well, my boyfriend that she stole from me. He's in a coma, but I'm going to sneak into his hospital room when she's not there. I climb up on the bed, and oopsy! I forgot my underwear. Next thing you know, I'm pregnant with Jerry's baby. Now, stay with me, because this is where it starts to get a little dark.
Kelly: That's okay.
Carol: You don't want to hear the rest?
Kelly: No, I'm cool.
Quote from Dina
Dina: You don't have any of my photos, because I don't pose for them. [laughs] You know, if I ever got kidnapped, the police would have quite a time finding a current photo to put on the news.
Quote from Jonah
Amy: She just has such an attitude since the divorce. That's why I'm making her work here. I'm hoping she gets some discipline.
Jonah: And you're not worried that if you're too hard on her, Adam gets to be the good guy?
Amy: What? No.
Jonah: It's just that when my parents separated, they both wanted to be the favorite. I came home one day and my dad had gotten me a ten-disc box set of Churchill speeches.
Amy: And that was something you wanted?
Jonah: Uh, yeah. I'm still closer with him than I am with my mom. Although that might be because he doesn't send me long, pointless texts about book club.
