You want me to go down there and drag her away from a guy that she wants to be with because you say he's hitting her?
You're right. I wouldn't wanna mess up your squash game at the club...
S5 E14Stand by Me
When we didn't get on that plane for Texas you asked me to be honest. Can't you be honest with me now?
I love you.
I know.
It's over.
I know.
No, Ned, it's okay, it's my fault. I should never have lied to you and I should never have gone to that party and I should never have danced with Justin and I'm sorry.
S5 E15Whatever Works
I don't know if you're right about Ned or not. What I do know? If Owen gets lost, or Diana needs ear-drops at three am, or I'm hooking up with some bass-playing loser... you're just there. And not for any reason, except, we need you. You're like this angel, Griffin, this guardian angel.
Mom and dad dying took a ton away, but it also gave me something. It made me grow up really fast, and so now, I'm getting a shot at stuff that most guys have to wait for until they're twice my age. And if I pass this one up, I still have a whole extra lifetime to go after it again.
Y'know what Owen said to me yesterday? He said that of all the dads on his team, that I'm the best, because I'm most like a kid.
No, you don't understand. I don't want to hear what you were gonna do, okay? You were supposed to be more than this. You were supposed to be worth the fight.
CCody
What fight?
The fight with Griffin, when he said you weren't good enough, when he said you were bascially the same kind of loser as him. 'Cause that's the thing, Cody. Griffin? He's not. He's this amazing person. No one sees how great he is. I wanted you to be that too.
You know, uh, you're a lot better than my old man was. The only person he managed to fool was my sister.
How'd you get in here?
My ma, she, uh, she was smart, she just took off, and me, uh, as soon as I got picking up, I just started to hit back.
Look, you're gonna have to leave now.
You, uh, you, uh, you manage to fool everybody, huh? Justin, or her brothers, even her.
This is my dorm, moron. I mean, there's college cops like 10 feet away.
Sit down! Now, that's the thing, the messing with her head, that's what makes me want to kill you.
You know, you're gonna be in a lot of trouble.
You guys are done. You hear me? Cause you're not gonna hurt her anymore. And I don't care how it works, but you're done. And you're not gonna see her anymore, ever.
Actually, I am. I'm gonna see her in about 15 minutes.
No, you're not. Cause I'm telling you, if you see her, you're gonna get hurt.
It's Valentines Day, Griffin. Like it or not. We're in love.
Are you listening to me?
Wanna know what we're doing, on our date?
I'm giving you a fair warning.
Strip poker, in her bedroom. I know it's not so romantic, but we did hearts and flowers yesterday.
S5 E16Party of Freud
See, it's not... it's not that my mother abandoned me, it's that she did it when I was old enough to understand. It's like she gave me this disease, that she passed on to me, but see, I've stopped it, as of right now, I have stopped it. But if I go home, and I go in therapy, and I try to get well, and all this time I convince Diana to depend on me, and then I FAIL, then I will have given my daughter what my mother passed on to me.
[to Daphne] So, I'm happy you got all the facts, but just so you know, from this point on you can stop blaming your mom, and start blaming yourself.
I hit... sometimes... I hit... I hit her.
S5 E17fam-i-ly
Everything Griffin's been saying about Ned, and this whole-- Maggie says it's true. Ned used to hit her.
You're kidding.
I can't believe it either. I can't believe how stupid I've been.
So, Griffin's been--
Right. The guy's got a problem.
You damn right, he's got a problem, so let's go. Let's go down there.
My thought exactly.
I'm coming too.
No, you're not. No, stay here with Diana. Wait, wait, wait. Someone's gotta pick up Owen.
Call Sarah, she'll do it.
[about Ned] What are you guys gonna do?
[simultaneously]
We're gonna talk to him.
We're gonna kill the guy.
Who the hell do you think you are?
Julia, please. Just get your stuff, we want to take you home.
I am not coming with you.
Julia, pack your stuff, we'll talk about this at home.
This is my home.
Julia, you can't lie to us about this anymore, okay? We know what's going on.
No, you don't. Like you said: I don't get a vote in your lives, you don't get a vote in mine.
This is not about a vote, this is about keeping you safe. So just pack your stuff, and we'll talk about it later.
I don't want to talk about it later.
Julia, please. Come on, come with us.
Ned and I are working this out, okay? He's getting help, he's seeing someone, I'm going to work this out, Charlie, I'm gonna make it work. Shocking, but true. I'm not quitting on him.
That guy beats women! Alright? It's not your problem to work it out.
No, it is. Because he loves me.
If he loved you, he wouldn't be hitting you.
No. No, he does love me.
Andrew's your choice. You love him and he's gonna be family, because you chose him. You know, kind of the way that you chose me when you decided to adopt me. But it's not blood or genes or DNA, and it's also not about a license or a ceremony either. It's a choice. And I don't know, I guess, you know, maybe I've made my choice too. And the Salingers have been my choice for a very long time now.
Julia and I are completely different, okay. Do you think five years ago if Mom and Dad had predicted where we'd be right now, that me getting some girl pregnant would have been that far off? Because I don't think so. But Julia? Do you they'd have said that she'd be married and divorced to a motorcycle mechanic all by the ripe old age of 20? And now this? I don't think so, Bailey. So go ahead and blame me. Blame me because I want my kid sister to be everything she was supposed to be. Just don't do it where I can hear you, okay?
