Quotes 

• Jordan Armstrong : You know, maybe if I had the luxury of getting my ass whooped, I could be calm right now. But I have been drinking tequila shots, my hormones are raging out of control, I'm emotional, I'm horny, and I don't wanna hear about no goddamn peas! Fuck you! Good night!

• Jordan Armstrong : [after Harper arrives bruised and bloody]  So, Lance figured it out, didn't he?

  Harper Stewart : Yeah. He figured it out, promptly beat my ass, and, oh, called off the wedding.

  Jordan Armstrong : What?

  Harper Stewart : Yeah.

  Jordan Armstrong : Well, was he serious?

  Harper Stewart : I don't know. Well, he was drunk. I don't know.

  Jordan Armstrong : Oh, my God. Well, do you want me to get you anything? Are you okay?

  Harper Stewart : No, you've done enough. You've done enough. See, you don't seem to understand something. They would have been in marital bliss by the time the book was SUPPOSED to have come out! But thanks to you, Miss "I Want An Exclusive," I got my ass whupped! I almost thrown from a fucking BUILDING because of yo ass! So, thank you, Jordan! Thank you! And what the fuck is that smell?

  Jordan Armstrong : [Fiercely slaps Harper] 

  Harper Stewart : [Reacting to it]  Whoo!

  Jordan Armstrong : You know, you have some nerve, blaming me for your skeletons, Mister!

  Harper Stewart : Jordan...

  Jordan Armstrong : No, I'm not done, Harper. You wrote the book. You aired your dirty laundry. No matter how hard you tried to disguise it, it was YOU! You got me all fired up saying that my life was empty and we could have been great together! That was you, okay? Not me. YOU.

• Jordan Armstrong : [to Harper]  I want to make love to you tonight. I feel our opportunity has presented itself again, and... I don't want to miss out on it twice.

• Jordan Armstrong : So?

  Mia Morgan : So... what?

  Jordan Armstrong : So, what? Mia!

  Mia Morgan : Jordan, good girls never tell.

  Jordan Armstrong : Bitch, don't make me hurt you.

  Mia Morgan : [Smirks]  What?

  Jordan Armstrong : [Glares at Mia] 

  Mia Morgan : What we shared was as sweet and as endearing as a forehead kiss. It was what I wanted. It was what I needed. He was a gentleman, and a friend, and I will always love him for that.

• Jordan Armstrong : You are a family man. The press loves you. They're gonna be dying to see this!

  Lance Sullivan : No, Jordan. This is not a media event. This is our wedding day. Can you understand that?

  Jordan Armstrong : It's one camera...

  Lance Sullivan : [frustrated]  Jordan!

  Jordan Armstrong : One!

  Lance Sullivan : Jordan, some things are just sacred, like between a man and a woman? Oh, I'm sorry. You wouldn't know anything about that, now would you?
