"A very, very, very small town." "As far away from civilisation as David could manage." "Right, David?" "No big city conveniences for us." "Just peace and quiet." " How were the game hens?" " Um... tasty." "That's good to hear." "Because so often when David tries to take care of something, he just fucks it right up." " Dana, you're being rude." " Hey, I was trying to be funny!"

"It's not polite to interrupt someone when they're talking, David." "In answer to your question, Jules," "I would say this move has been a lot like a death." "A lot." "Which reminds me." "Excuse me for one moment." "Uh, maybe we should go." "DANA:" "Stay right where you are, Jules." "Nobody's going anywhere before we have dessert." " David." " It's fine." "Oh, my God."

"Isn't that why you asked them to come all the way here on one day out of all possible days that they could have come?" "So here we are, sitting at our table, eating our food, on the exact day that I gave birth to our daughter one year ago." "Dana, please, I'm begging you, stop this."
