The Secrets and Lies

Summer: I'm sounding out a hot new couple alert. Act like you knew nothing. Seth: I don't. Seth: So if the body doesn't lie... Summer: Then it's saying, "Ew." Seth: "Ew"? Or "Touch my pooper"? Seth: Tense, tightly-wound shut-in. That's all I want out of you, okay? It's kind of a Boo Radley-shade. Far away…

The Undertow

The Journey

The Road Warrior

Seth: I've got two girls in bikinis trying to seduce me. Which sounds awesome. But I'm scared, I'm wet, and I'm cold, Ryan. Ryan: Okay. Alright, I'll be right there. I just gotta towel off. Seth: Why do you have to towel off? Kirsten: Maybe you two should stop sneaking around and go public. Julie:…

The Cliffhanger

Seth: So I wanted to be alone. Are you the only one in this family that's allowed to brood? Seth: We're getting dangerously close to an after-school special here, Ryan.

The Pot Stirrer

Seth: Dude, I planned my first escape on an Etch-a-Sketch. This is my dream. It's just, I don't know, man. It's real. Ryan: Well, why don't you talk to Summer about it. I mean, I'm sure she's freaking out a bit, too. Seth: I'll be fine. Seriously. This is just my process. Ryan: Fair enough.…

The Sister Act

Seth: Every time things are going too well around here, that's when doom comes aknockin'. Ryan: Doom? Seth: Aknockin'. doorbell Or aringin'. Right on time. Don't answer it.

The Safe Harbor

Summer: If we're going to launch a successful campaign to get Marissa back into Harbor we have to find someone who can organize the masses. Someone who they'll follow, you know, into battle.

The Disconnect

Julie: Sandy, I don't think I'm in favor of low income housing. Kirsten: Julie, you live in a trailer park. Summer: Well maybe I never had a dream. You know, maybe for once in my life I actually want to do something in my life. Like something important. Be the first woman in space or…
