Look, I know when I'm not wanted.
And yet you're always at our house!
S1 E22The L.A.
Right on. I'm hoping for a little Natalie Portman, Keira Knightley, maybe Kate Bosworth myself. [Summer hits him] Ow! What? It's okay for you to pine over Legolas?
Yeah, he's an elf. He saved Middle-Earth. That is a huge part of European history.
S1 E23The Nana
So what's the GP, RA?
I have no idea what you just said.
Game plan, Ryan Atwood.
You're just using initials now?
Yeah. They save time.
Well, not if you have to translate.
GP.
Game Plan?
Good Point.
Mom, Hailey made three different kinds of pancakes and waffles. They're deliciously redundant.
I'm gonna study this thing so hard I'm even gonna out-Jew you. [opens the Haggadah]
You're reading it backwards.
Oh, c'mon, Ma. It's Ryan's first Seder.
How do you know that? Don't assume that. They have Jews in Chino. Why do you think they want a P.F. Chang's?
[to Marissa] Yeah, but what about your Dad? Kaitlin? Summer? What about me? What am I supposed to do without you? I mean, I'd get over you eventually, but it'd take a while.
S1 E24The Proposal
How can you live like this? Your t-shirts are touching your sweaters.
You don't like hardware stores and you cry during chick flicks. Next thing you're gonna tell me, you walk in on Ryan changing.
Hey... that's crazy. Let's go to the hardware store.
You were in the comic book club?
Yeah. I was the president and only member.
Was I really mean to you?
No, that would have required you to speak to me. Or anyone to speak to me.
You have to find the stud.
You mean like you did, Summer?
Just get me the stud-finder?
Oh, Summer. I think you are the stud-finder.
You see this hammer in my hand?
Yeah, I'm gonna find that stud-finder. What does it look like?
And the level.
What is a level?
Don't you know what a level is?
Yeah, it's something that you advance to in a video game.
That's funny. The tool doesn't know about tools.
You know what they say, one man's misfortune is another man's fortune.
Who says that?
[smiling] I do.
I've never seen him smile before.
I didn't know he had teeth.
I did it, look.
Wow! You hit a nail. Fabulous you're bitch, Cohen.

My wedding planner is a passive-aggressive nitwit who has the audacity to question my taste in music. Bob Seger is not "so over."
