Ryan: How are you doing? Seth: Well, I was depressed. Now I'm depressed and confused. Ryan: A rehab center. Where'd you get this? Seth: My dad's office. I don't think he's trying to kick bagels. Ryan: I don't think it's for your dad. Julie: All my black dresses look like they should be accessorized with…

As Seth comes to visit Ryan in the early morning Ryan: What time is it? Seth: It's 5:30... ish. Ryan: You're showing up earlier and earlier. Seth: Yeah, well, we have a lot of ground to cover, so I figured, since we're both up, we may as well get a jump on it. Seth: Something…

Sandy: Do you think I look like Tony Blair? Kirsten: Uh, you have nicer hair. Sandy: Good hair, leader of Great Britain. I would call it a wash. Summer: You know, I really thought things were going to be different this time, but you haven't changed at all. You've found new and even more public…

Seth: I don't believe it, Ryan. Bright Eyes has two albums in the top ten. Ryan: You okay with that? Seth: Yeah I just feel like the rest of the world's finally caught up to me. It's a little bit scary. Ryan: Yeah, it's a lot scary. Seth: Tell me I'm still special. Sandy: You…

Seth: Okay, so then when the cops showed up and asked who's responsible for the girl floating in the pool, he was like, what? "I'm an ex-con on parole. I know, I'll say me." Ryan: No, I think that when the cops showed up and went to put the cuffs on Marissa he did what…

Sandy: I tell you the timing in this household is a thing of beauty. Trey: I'm sorry, Ryan. Okay? I screwed up. And you and Seth and Marissa saved my ass. I know that. Will you please just accept my apology? Ryan: Don't keep Sandy waiting. Seth: He doesn't exactly seem overburdened with possessions. Unless…

Trey: Just ah, something I picked up in prison. Seth entering: Ah yeah, the old scallion and shiv omelet. I've seen Lockup. Stallone's finest work since Over the Top. Trey: Stallone, huh? Eh, I'm more of a Van Damme fan. Ryan: What, are you kidding me? Segal, man. Seth: Yeah, a divided house can not…

Ryan getting off the phone: That was Trey. Kirsten: Your brother? Ryan: Yeah. He's getting out of jail tomorrow. Wants me to pick him up in Chino. Seth: Well, there's that family trip you wanted. Kirsten: I know Trey is the only family that Ryan has and I do think that we should help him—…

Seth: I gotta say, last year? Better than this year. [...] Ryan: Maybe it's because last year was new. Ryan: Live in the now, Seth. Seth: I'm sorry. I'm afraid I can't do that. Kirsten: He wants to take it beyond gossip and dish. Focus on culture, the local art scene. Sandy: So it's really…

Ryan: This thing with Lindsay is... different. Seth: Different how? Ryan: Different as in not fixed by pancakes. And don't ask me how I feel about waffles. Seth: Got it. Seth: This thing with Lindsay is just really kicking Ryan's ass. Summer: Which is why it's a good thing we're like the Marines. Seth: How…

Seth: Think we should stick together? Kinda two-by-two like Noah did? He's very wise, Ryan. He had a beard. Sandy: I feel like we've become like strangers. Kirsten: Well, I was taught never to talk to strangers. Julie: That's very punk of you. You know, I used to like the punk in my day. Marissa:…

Seth: Do you not see what's going on here? Ryan: Yes. You're wallowing. Ryan about Seth's obsession with Zach and Summer: No, Seth, you can't ask her. It's weird and it's creepy and it's none of your business. Kirsten: Have you seen Seth? Sandy: Well I've smelled him. Smells like Teen Spirit to me. Julie…

After Kirsten sends roses down the trash compactor Seth: Looks like I'm not the only one at odds with the universe. Summer about her earrings: Do you think these are too bling for a meeting? Julie to Marissa: Are you going to throw your bedroom furniture in the pool now? Sandy: There are days that…

Ryan: Is this about Alex? Seth: Ah, no no. She's merely kitchen table fodder at this point. She's no longer up to pool house standard. Ryan: Look, I'm not the biggest fan of your dad—no offense—but I mean Luke Skywalker was happy to have a dad, even if it was Darth Vader. Kirsten: You're right,…

Seth: Is she back together with her lesbian ex? And if so is she open to some sort of menage-a-threeway as in the film Summer Lovers? Zach: You should just focus on the good stuff in your life. Like school. Seth grimaces. Or... comics. Yeah, I got nothing. Alex on the phone with Marissa: Are…
