[to Julie]
Pete : Don't kill yourself in there.
-
Pete : [looking at a family portrait] We were pretty damn cute as a family.
-
Pete : Why did you walk out on my daughter that way?
Max : I made a mistake. We got married too young.
Pete : If you're too young to be married, Max, what makes you think that you're ready to raise Kenzie and Krash?
Nicole : It's Kash and how do you know my kids' names?
Ricki : Everybody on Highway 70 knows your kids' names.
Max : Look, lady, you weren't even at our wedding. Julie hates you.
Ricki : That may be. And I have to live with that every day of my life. But now *you* have to live with the pain you caused.
-
Ricki : Our child attempted suicide and you didn't tell me?
Pete : I didn't - I didn't even find out till the day after, okay? And then I was a little more concerned with Julie than Ricki.
Ricki : You should've called me and told me.
Pete : I did. That's why you're here.
Ricki : I didn't realize that she was suicidal. I thought she was just depressed because of Max leaving.
Pete : Depressed? No, I could've manage that alone. No, I'm - Julie's always been a moody kid. I wouldn't have even bothered to call you.
Ricki : Well, why not?
Pete : Because historically, Linda, you don't really give a damn.
Ricki : Yes, I do!
-
Ricki : You shut me out of this family.
Pete : I shut you out?
Ricki : Yup.
Pete : You came back here from California, if you recall, with a chip on your shoulder, you were completely shut down.
Ricki : Well, I did come back.
Pete : Well...
Ricki : You had moved on.
Pete : I had to move on. I wanted the kids to have a mother who is there.
Ricki : It was my dream, man.
Pete : Yeah, and that stupid me. I thought we were your dream.
Ricki : I can't have two dreams?
Pete : No, in fact, Linda, you can't.
-
Julie : My heart is dead and rotten.
Pete : Don't say that.
Ricki : No, a heart isn't something like a steak, you know, that spoils. A heart is like a Big Mac. It just sits and sits and sits. It gets older, yeah, but it doesn't change.
Pete : What? You're saying that a Big Mac never goes bad?
Ricki : Yeah. That's what I'm saying.
Pete : Interesting.
Ricki : It - It lives forever. I saw it on 60 Minutes.
Julie : That's disgusting.
-
Pete : Arugula.
Ricki : 9-4-8-8-4
Pete : You just know that right off the top of your - ?
Ricki : Boom.
Pete : Is it - ?
[shuts refrigerator door]
Pete : Yes, you're absolutely right.
Ricki : Of course I'm right. I know all the PLU codes. I ring stuff up all day long. Go ahead, try me. Anything, anything, anything.
Pete : Bananas.
Ricki : Organic or regular? Organic is 9-4-2-3-7.
Pete : Yes. You're like a memorizing genius.
-
Pete : You know, they say, like... all kids are screwed up now. It's the air on the radio waves or the - the peanuts.
Ricki : Hey, do you remember the pediatrician, the one - What was his name? Fa - Dr. Fa - Farling. Fena - Fenamana. Fenan - Fenan.
[they laugh]
Pete : Yeah. The guy in Wheaton. What about him?
Ricki : That doctor. Remember, he said Joshy was hyperactive. Turns out he's drinking too much pop.
Pete : Pop, yeah.
Ricki : Right?
Pete : They know nothing.
Ricki : Yeah, they know nothing.
Pete : We know nothing.
[He checks on Julie]
Pete : She's gonna be fine. She's gonna be fine.
Ricki : I don't know.
Pete : Oh, yeah, she is.
