• Ted : I have sunk almost all of our savings into this campaign. Because I thought, if I won, you'd all be proud of me.

  Harper : We're already proud of you.

  Sloane : We don't care if you win.

  Jane : Yeah, and the money doesn't matter. When I sell my book, I'll take care of all of us.

  Ted : I love you, girls. And I'm sorry for making you think that anything could ever get in the way of that. I want to do better, and it will take time, but all I want for you is to find the same joy and happiness that you have given me, no matter where it comes from.

• Tipper : Harper, did you see that the Bennett's are here?

  Harper : Yeah, we just ran into Riley.

  Ted : Did you hear that she's doing her residency at Johns Hopkins?

  Jane : I should have her look at my mole.

  Harper : No, I hadn't heard that.

  Ted : It's very impressive! Her parents must be proud. And relieved.

  Tipper : I know. That lifestyle choice.

  Ted : Such a shame.

• Connor : Abby, what do you do?

  Abby : Oh, I'm working on my PhD in art history over at Carnegie Mellon. My parents were professors there, so I kind of wanted to follow in their footsteps.

  Ted : You know, before law school, I took all the money I had and went to Paris for a month. Spent every day in museums! That experience made me the man I am.

  Abby : That must have been incredible. What a dream!

  Ted : It was. Boy, Carnegie Mellon, huh? Bet you could teach me a thing or two.

• Tipper : What is going on!

  Sloane : Yeah, what is going on? Harper, do you want to tell them, or should I?

  Harper : Don't, Sloane!

  Sloane : Why? It's not good timing?

  Tipper : Girls, stop that this instant!

  Jane : Come one, guys. Just hug it out.

  Harper , Sloane : Shut up, Jane!

  Harper : Don't do this, Sloane!

  Sloane : All this because you're scared to not be the favorite. Pathetic!

  Ted : Sloane, you're making a scene!

  Sloane : I am? You think she's so innocent? All of this is happening because Harper is... Harper is a lesbian! Abby's her girlfriend.

  Harper : She is lying! I am not a lesbian!
