S1 E15So-Called Angels

Oh, a Christmas card from the Levettis?

So?

Well, I finally took them off the list! We haven't laid eyes on them since Danielle started solids, and now out of nowhere they send this?

Patty, it's a greeting card, not a dead fish.

It's not fair. Angela got a new bike when she was eleven.

What do you do? Keep like running tally of everything we bought for Angela?

Well, yeah.

Krakow, this is when people need the helpline, okay? People get so stressed over this holiday stuff, they experience actual symptoms of depression, or whatever. Like, total helplessness and despair. And, like, loss of appetite, or whatever.

S1 E16Resolutions

[voiceover] I resolve to never again have sex with Kyle, or anyone, again, unless I really love and respect them.

KKyle

[voiceover]... to spend more time with the dog, and Sharon.

KKatimski

[voiceover] ... um, give up coffee, there, that's an easy one.

[voiceover] I resolve to stop obsessing over Angela Chase.

[voiceover] ... to badger Mom into letting me wear make-up.

[voiceover] ... to find some place where I like really, belong.

[voiceover] ... to stop drinking, but this time, like, really stop.

[voiceover] I resolve to be less judgmental, less critical, to lighten up! And above all, to be more supportive, and less suspicious. [about Graham] No matter how much it seems like he's hiding something.

[voiceover] ... to tell Hallie Lowenthal once and for all that I'm not going into restaurant business with her... And to stop all those long talks with her after class.

[voiceover] What I was thinking, as like a New Year's resolution, is to stop getting so caught up in my own thoughts, 'cause I'm like way too introspective. I think... But what if not thinking turns me into this shallow person? I better rethink this becoming less introspective thing. Okay, so I'll stay introspective, but I do resolve to stop doing Jordan Catalano's homework.

[voiceover] The thing about resolutions is, it's hard to remember them around somebody like Jordan Catalano.

This is wrong.

What?

You, doing my homework, it's wrong.

Well I was just trying to help.

It's like I'm taking advantage of you or something.

You're not taking advantage of me.

Yeah I am. It would be different if we were like...but now you're just...you know, a friend or whatever. [pause] I can't do this anymore.

[voiceover] I couldn't believe it, for the first time in my life I actually stuck to a resolution.

GGirl

Do you have like an eraser I could use for a second?

I think so..

GGirl

My eraser like won't erase.

Um, here you can keep it.

GGirl

Thanks.

What?

She would sleep with you.

What?!

She, would sleep, with you.

Because I gave her my eraser?

No..Because, because she would. Go get her number.

What?! How am I supposed to get her number? I just like ask her just ask some girl I don't even know for her number? Like, without warning?

[Jordan goes over to girl. Returns and tosses the number on the desk]

So, anyway, The Odyssey? Is like this real long book right? And ah, I..

I don't believe this..[looking at number] I don't..you like dothis? This is like how you live?

Yeah.

[Brian starts laughing, Jordan joins him]

[walks in] Hi! What's so funny?

Nothing.

You sort of had to be there..[more laughing] I have to sharpen my, my pencil..[gets up, laughs]

Look, if this weird for you, being tutored? I don't mind helping you a little longer.

It's not so weird.

Oh, so, huh. Good!

You could, have sex with me though..[Angela laughs] if you really want to help. [Angela gets up, laughing] I guess that's a, no.

[Laughing] I'll let you get back to your work...

S1 E17Betrayal

[voiceover] I loved Jordan Catalano so much, and talked about him so much, and thought about him so much, it was like he lived inside me. Like he had taken possession of my soul, or something. And then one day...I got over him! [Angela dances and sings to "Blister In The Sun"]

[voiceover] It was like Jordan Catalano had been surgically removed from my heart... and I was free.

I've never really hurt somebody this bad before... Hard to believe ! I mean, but I guess you can't hurt somebody this bad, unless you really matter to them

You lost nothing Angela, You lost nothing you lost a lousy selfish friend and a guy you never really had, you lost nothing, I lost a really good friend. I lost everything.

KMr. Katimsky

[explaining a scene from Our Town to Rayanne] Emily is dead.The life she had is over. That's a pretty big deal. I mean — oh, gee whiz, she is just now realizing how precious every moment of that life really was, and that she never fully appreciated what she had. Just imagine what that must feel like, Rayanne.
