Quotes[]
- Sam: It really disgusts me how you will sometimes say anything to avoid responsibility for your mistakes. You had a party and you wrecked the house! You're not the first kid to do that. It's not the end of the world.
- Max: Then why are you acting like it is?
- Sam: Because you make me get this mad before you even look up from your phone!
- Frankie: Good job, Mom. Also, I hate you.
- Sam: Have I shut down, down there? Am I a man yet? Please tell me I'm close to being a man. No more periods.
- Dr. Okoye: I hate to tell you, but you have the reproductive system of a sixteen year old.
- Sam: Oh, my god.
- Dr. Okoye: Yeah. Your tubes are ripe and working.
