S1 E9Halloween

I saw you watching me.

What? I'm just... I... When?

Today. Shaving my legs.

Well, yeah. I'm, um... Look, I'm... My hobby is photography, so I'm, like, trained to notice stuff.

Being the stuff people notice is my hobby. I mean, I live for it.

S1 E10Other People's Mothers

[voiceover] Walking into someone's house for the first time is like entering another country. Not that I've ever been to another country.

Sometimes I think if my mother wasn't so good at pretending to be happy, she'd be better at actually *being* happy.

RSRayanne's mom

When I get back, we're gonna have a long talk, Rayanne Marie! But, tonight, you're too drunk! You're like a drunken old fool! I want this place cleaned up by the time I get home!!

[she leaves, and Rickie and Angela run to Rayanne. Rickie holds her]

[weakly] Why is it so cold, Rickie? Why is it so cold?...

Rayanne reminds me a lot of a roommate I had in college.

Well, did you like her??

Yeah. But, one night something happened.

What happened?

Oh, the same thing that happened with Rayanne tonight. Except she died.

I'm sorry, Mom.

No. Honey, you did the right thing, calling me.

Each card has a name: The Magician, The Empress, The Fool, The Wheel of Fortune, Strength. They represent challenges and tests, twists of fate. No card is all good or all bad. Cards can be positive or negative depending on where they fall. When you read someone's future, they must think of a question. They must hold it in their mind. The cards are read in sequence, each card leads to the next. We move from terror and loss to unexpected good fortune and out of darkness, hope is born.

S1 E11Life of Brian

[voiceover] My mother's a behavioral psychologist, and my father's a Freudian psychiatrist, which basically means they fundamentally disagree on, like, everything.

[voiceover] I became yearbook photographer because I liked the idea that I could sort of watch life without having to be part of it. But when you're yearbook photographer, you're, like, never in the picture.

Brian, this was all my fault..

'[voiceover] Her hair smelled incredible.

...I mean, I ruined your night. And Delia's night. I should have just stayed out of it.

[voiceover] Like this orange grove we passed when I was eight on our way to see my grandmother.

And I can't really explain why I even got involved. But I'm sorry.

[voiceover] But I guess that's just like her shampoo, or whatever.

What'd you tell Rickie?

I told him not to come over here.

But, hes my friend!!

Yeah. I know, He's mine, too, but, just in case we wanted like privacy-

Why would we want privacy?!

Well, just in case.....

What do you think is going on here, Krakow?!

BBrain

Well, uh....

What did you tell Delia?! I explained to you why I wanted a ride to the dance! And it wasn't to come with you! You don't understand people, Krakow! You're so heartless!

S1 E12Self-Esteem

[voiceover] There's something about Sunday night that really makes you want to kill yourself...And that creepy '60 Minutes' watch that sounds like your whole life ticking away.

[voiceover] So I tried to be invisible. It's surprisingly possible. You just sit in the back and keep quiet and let the boys shout out the answers, which they will, even if they're wrong. Boys are less afraid of being wrong.

[voiceover] There are certain places in life. Certain places where only certain people go. Like, there's this line that you know not to pass. Like, there's this boiler room, in the basement by the north exit, where only certain people go. For only one reason....
