Amber Tamblyn: Joan Girardi
Quotes
-
Joan : How do you deal with your dad being all into God?
Grace Polk : Sometimes I hide his yarmulke and watch him freak.
-
Joan : [to God] Look, it's over, okay? You're just going to have to adjust to that. Call up a friend and bitch about me on the phone if you need to, but you have to find someone else!
-
Joan : [as the paramedics work on Judith, Joan sees Cute Boy God walking towards her] Why are you letting this happen? Do something!
Cute Boy God : Keep your eyes open. It's all I asked.
[He walks away from her]
Joan : You're blaming me for this? No way are you blaming me!
-
Joan : So, um, what are you looking for?
Kevin Girardi : [finding an old yearbook] This.
Joan : Cutting out pictures of Andy?
Kevin Girardi : I just need to see him. I need to see who the hell my best friend was.
Joan : Mm, he was a dork. He used to pick me up and spin me over his head. I should have ralphed on him.
Kevin Girardi : No, you loved him. We all did.
Joan : He's a bastard now.
Kevin Girardi : Sure seems that way. I'm gonna go see him.
Joan : What?
Kevin Girardi : I need to find out why he's doing this.
Joan : Kevin, he's suing us. You can't go see him.
Kevin Girardi : Who says?
Joan : Like, every law show on TV.
Kevin Girardi : You won't tell mom and dad, will you?
Joan : [sarcastic] Oh, yeah, I'm dying to get in the middle of this one.
-
Joan : Hey.
Judith Montgomery : [weakly] Joanith in the hizzouse.
Joan : Where are your parents?
Judith Montgomery : Um... uh... my father's giving a speech tonight at Shrinkapalooza.
Joan : Oh.
Judith Montgomery : What? You look worse than me.
Joan : I should have taken that bottle away from you.
Judith Montgomery : This is my thing. Not yours.
Joan : No, it doesn't work like that. It doesn't work if everyone is alone, you know? I was supposed to keep my eyes open. And I didn't know what that meant, even though everything was right there in front of me, and Kevin and Andy, and you and the party, and... I almost let you die anyway. And Adam dumped me, and then dad and the lady who did what she was supposed to do got killed. And even though I see now, I probably sent the cosmos spinning off course, and we're all gonna end up sucked into a black hole, and there'll be no more world. And I'm just really, really... I'm really sorry, Judith.
-
Joan : You know, I thought when you left, that you had left... me.
Adam Rove : Nothing's ever been that easy with us, Joan.
Joan : Jane. Look, I didn't really want you to... to shake your booty.
Adam Rove : Well, that would have been ugly.
Joan : I was just trying to figure out who I wanted to be. You know, like, what kind of person. I didn't want anyone else to tell me.
Adam Rove : I know.
Joan : Do you know who you are?
Adam Rove : You know, I... I don't try to figure it out, really.
Joan : Maybe it's not important, you know? It's about what we do for each other, isn't it?
-
Joan : You should have been more specific. You could have made me.
Old Lady God : I can only point things out, give you choices.
Joan : But what if I mess up again?
[crying]
Joan : I don't wanna mess up again.
-
The Other Sammy : "Alice in Quantumland" is not in Children's. Even simplistic writings on quantum theory would be found in Science, which should be ovious, unless, of course, you don't even have a game show's knowledge of of basic scientific terminology.
Joan : Hey, I take AP Physics.
The Other Sammy : Oh, which explains the outsourcing of jobs to India.
Joan : When is Sammy coming back?
The Other Sammy : I am Sammy.
Joan : Which is weird, isn't it? Best friends, both Sammy, both like... you know how you are. It's like there should be some mothership someplace.
The Other Sammy : Mm-hmm. The prior Sammy will return when his wife regains her sanity. So I'd get used to me if I were you.
-
Joan : I told you, I am done with you.
Old Lady God : Oh, here's one of the books your mother wanted. Thoreau? Now, he believed that, with a keen awareness of the natural world, one could find truth.
Joan : You just can't stop, can you?
-
Will Girardi : No! Damn it, no!
Joan : What happened?
Helen Girardi : A woman your father was working with, a witness to a murder, was killed.
Will Girardi : And I pushed her to get involved.
Helen Girardi : It was the right thing to do.
Will Girardi : She's dead, Helen.
