"I'm gonna be one of his helpers." "It's just such a slap in the face, you know?" "Hey, do you guys know what you're doing for New Year's?" "Hey, what?" "What is wrong with New Year's?"

"We'll have a big party, and no one will know who's with who." "This is so not what I needed now." "What's the matter?" "Oh, it's Marcel." "He keeps shutting me out." "He's walking around all the time, dragging his hands." "That's weird." "I had a blast with him the other night." "Really?" "We played." "We watched TV." "That juggling thing is amazing." "What juggling thing?" "With the balled-up socks?" "I figured you taught him that." "It wasn't that big a deal." "Just balled-up socks." "And a melon." "Phoebe!" "Hi!" "Hi, Max."
