[edit]Pilot [1.1]
[edit]- [On TRL in 2000]
- Young Summer: I'm Summer and the media trainer said to repeat the question in my answer, so why don't you introduce yourself Summer thanks Carson I'm Summer!
- Gloria: Just to get ahead of it, it's me—
- Wickie: Gloria. I know. I used context clues.
- Wickie: Music was never my bag anyway. Bags are my bag, because I'm launching a bag line. They're bat leather and they're tiny, like bats.
D'wasg [1.2]
[edit]- Kev: [doing a Tampa local entertainment news segment] Hey, what's up? I'm here with an exclusive look at the flight path celebrities often take when flying from Los Angeles to Miami, passing over Tampa completely.
- Larry: I was wrong, there's not zero interest in Girls5eva. ...I got a call. Eric Trump Casino University needs someone to play between MMA fights while they mop up blood. Four grand minus my 80 percent. BYO-mop.
- Girls5eva: [singing "Dream Girlfriends"]
- Low-rise jeans with a one-tooth zipper
- Eyebrows thin, bronzer thicker
- Whale-tail peeking, ready for the weekend
- Our eyes are all over you, boy, we're
- Dream girlfriends, 'cause our dads are dead
- You'll never have to meet them and get asked why you left school
- Dream girlfriends, no pushback
- 'Cause our moms are over-tired, and hoping for the best
- We've got the kind of birth control that goes in our arm
- And tell me again why Tarantino's a genius
- You'll never want to wake up from us
- We’re short, so we don't know that you're bald
- Nick: It's not a van, all right? For tax purposes it's 10 wheelchairs.
Alf Musik [1.3]
[edit]- Wickie: [waitressing] Hello, I'm new here, I'm not telling you my name. Our special today is penne alla vodka and Red Bull, and our soup is Italian divorce, I'll be back with your NDAs.
- Gloria: [about Dawn's young son Max] He's a classic New York Lonely Boy.
- Dawn: What?
- Gloria: New York Lonely Boy. A son born to older parents who's more comfortable around adults than kids. Yeah, they're all over the city, eating sushi. They usually wear a fedora, high-fiving a doorman.
- Dawn: That sounds like some Manhattan shit. We're Queens people. Our heat comes from one really hot vertical pipe.
- Gloria: Well, they're in all the boroughs. Except Staten Island, 'cause there's never been an only child from there.
- Dawn: How do you know about this?
- Gloria: Half my patients have one. But you're in good company: John Slattery has one, Kyle MacLachlan has one, Matthew Broderick is one.
- . . .
- John Slattery: Sorry, I didn't mean to bother you, but it looks like you've got yourself a real New York Lonely Boy there.
- Dawn: Um, yeah, uh, I guess I do, John Slattery.
- John Slattery: All I can say is, congratulations. A New York Lonely Boy is the greatest gift a parent could ask for.
- Dawn: It is?
- John Slattery: Heck yeah. I had five siblings. I was too busy fighting for food to develop a single goddamn interest. But this kid, he teaches us things. He know Mandarin, he make sourdough bread, he makes these little movies—
- Talia Balsam: Oh with the marionettes, it's very imaginative.
- John Slattery: Yeah, he loves museums.
- Talia Balsam: Oh, he's really good at a dinner party
- John Slattery: [to his son] What was that thing you said the other night?
- Harry Slattery: Never trust a restaurant on a corner.
- John Slattery: He's right! They always phone it in. Every day's like Father's Day, he's our best friend.
- Talia Balsam: Don't worry, they don't stay lonely forever. Before you know it they're dating a 23-year-old named Lucy; she's a landscape architect but she, she also submits fiction to the New Yorker.
- Dawn: So I won't ruin my son by not having another baby?
- Talia Balsam: No. If anything, the baby will ruin him.
- Alf Musik: You have a problem with my song? I worked quite hard on it. 40 minutes—20 metric.
- Wickie: No, it's fire. I was thinking of adding a "woah oh oh oh" right before "Cram it wherever."
Catskills [1.5]
[edit]- [After Summer makes a few unhelpful suggestions during a songwriting session]
- Wickie: Hey Summer, you know what would be a huge help? Would you make the salad?
