"Not just some pretend-for-a-night version of yourself, but the real deal." "He went to NYU after he graduated, which is where I'm planning on going, provided I can survive the insanity that is my family." "I know." "Everyone thinks their family's crazy." " But trust me..."

"Why couldn't you have gotten attached to something of your dad's from this decade?" "Mom." "Application." "Focus." "We need to talk about this, Wren." "I understand that you want to go to NYU, but Ohio State is just much less expensive." "I know it's a lot of money and I promise not to major in English so I can help pay it off." "When my dad died, my mom kind of lost it." "She started dyeing her hair blonde, shopping at Forever 21, and going out with a person named Keevin." "Oh, Joy." "M'lady." "M'dawg." "Yeah."

"Don't do what?" " That." "Maybe you'll like praying mantis better." "Ready?" "Whoo!" " Can you please stop it?" " You don't like that?" "Wren, I said please."
