Adult Dean: As my mom and dad proudly watched Kim take on this new level of responsibility with confidence, the significance of the moment wasn't lost on me.
Dean: So... now that Kim has a paycheck, can I get her allowance?

Adult Dean: Now, girls my age may not have given me the time of day, but I was about to discover that the girls too old for me to date... Oh, man, I was irresistible.

Lillian: Come on, Dean, time to go.
Dean: The ladies and I just ordered drinks, so I'mma stay here for a while and ride home with Kim.
Lillian: Oh, is that what you think you're doing? [chuckles]
Bill: Let the boy stay, Lil. He might learn some responsibility by observing Kim in her work environment. She got that strong work ethic like her mama. [both chuckle]
Lillian: Well, okay, then, Dean. Just don't bother your sister while she's busy. We'll see you at home.
Bill: [to Dean] You be cool.

Lillian: I think it is so good that you wanted to come here and support your sister. And you were right about the milkshakes. Delicious. [chuckles] [glasses clink]
Adult Dean: Asking my mom to take me to the diner was a brilliant move. It made me look like a good brother, all while putting me in position to run into Kim's girlfriends again. Kim being heavy-handed on the whipped cream tap was just a happy accident.

Dean: What are you guys doing here?
Hampton: You were bragging about how fun this place was, so we decided to join you.
Cory: Yep, and Norman's dad's apartment does not have gorgeous high school girls.
Dean: But they're my friends, and they're- They're way more mature than you guys.
Norman: So?
Dean: Not everyone loves jokes about passing gas, Norman.
Norman: Really? [Hampton nods]

Adult Dean: I still wasn't sure the guys were right about Pam having a crush on me, so just in case, the next day, I sprayed extra Afro Sheen on my hair and chewed half a roll of breath mints.

Dean: I just don't understand why you can't be done with Kwame. I swear, you guys have broken up like a thousand times.
Kim: Girls like guys like Kwame. Even girls who know better. Like me and Wendy.
Dean: Does that mean that there are girls like Kwame that guys like? Even though we know better?
Kim: Uh, yeah. And Pam is one of them. And based on the way she played you, you better start praying now.
Adult Dean: Damn, the future.
Kim: Look. Sometimes, relationships don't make any sense. That's why you have to make sure you have good friends around you, who will tell you the truth, see things you don't see. Obviously, I'm still looking for good friends like that.
Dean: But- But you've always had a ton of friends.
Kim: Mm. I've always been popular. That's not the same as having good friends. Like you... You have real friends. I'm a little jealous of that.
Adult Dean: That was the only time my sister ever said she was jealous of anything I had.
