"HE WAS AN ORTHODONTIST." "WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?" "JUST THAT SHE REGRETTED IT." "IT WAS WEIRD." "THE GUY CRIED OR SOMETHING." "I DON'T KNOW." "THE POINT IS THAT WHEN THAT HAPPENED," "SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GONNA HAPPEN" "WITH HER AND DEACON, OK?" "TODAY IS THE DAY BEFORE THEY'RE GETTING BACK TOGETHER." "SO IF THE SEX GOES PAST MIDNIGHT," "IT'LL BE THE SAME DAY." "THE SEX PROBABLY WON'T GO PAST MIDNIGHT." "DON'T BE SO SURE." "SOME PEOPLE CAN ACTUALLY PULL THAT OFF." "OH, I SEE ALL THE GUNS ARE OUT NOW!" "YOU CAN INSULT ME ALL YOU WANT." "I'M STILL NOT GOING OVER THERE AND TELLING HIM." "I'M JUST NOT." "ALL RIGHT." "LOOK, DOUG, OK." "I ADMIT THAT DEACON BEING WITH THIS GIRL TONIGHT" "PROBABLY WON'T DESTROY THEIR MARRIAGE," "AND, YES, MAYBE IN SOME WAY," "HE PROBABLY DOES DESERVE IT." "BUT I JUST FEEL" "LIKE NOT TELLING DEACON ABOUT KELLY" "IS JUST WRONG." "HONEY, IT'S WRONG," "AND I KNOW IN YOUR HEART" "YOU KNOW THAT, TOO." "I DON'T KNOW." "MAYBE." "COME ON, HONEY."

"CAN YOU HEAR THE DOORBELL FROM THE BEDROOM?" "I DON'T KNOW." "WELL, WHAT DO YOU THINK?" "I DON'T KNOW." "IT'S BEEN A WHILE" "SINCE WE HAD A SLUMBER PARTY." "ALL RIGHT, JUST USE YOUR KEY." "I DON'T HAVE A KEY." "OH, DON'T GIVE ME THAT." "I KNOW YOU GUYS SWAPPED HOUSE KEYS," "LIKE, 5 YEARS AGO." "OH, RIGHT." "MY "PLEASE BURST IN IF I'M EVER NAILING A STEWARDESS" KEY." "RIGHT."

"YES, I DO." "THEN WHY THE HELL DID YOU TELL ME NOW?" "!" "I'M SORRY." "CARRIE MADE ME." "THE ONLY WORSE TIME YOU COULD'VE PICKED" "IS IF YOU WAITED ANOTHER HALF HOUR" "AND POPPED OUT FROM UNDER THE COVERS." "I FOUGHT FOR YOU!" "I FOUGHT FOR YOU," "AND I TOLD HER YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH HELL" "AND YOU DESERVE THIS," "AND THEN SHE SAID SOME STUFF," "AND HERE WE ARE." "OH, MAN." "SO WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?" "I DON'T KNOW." "I CAN'T EVEN THINK STRAIGHT." "IN MY MIND, I'M SEEING MY FAMILY" "ALL BACK TOGETHER FOR CHRISTMAS," "EXCEPT INSTEAD OF A TREE," "WE'RE DECORATING A NAKED STEWARDESS." "DEAC, THAT IS A MILLION-DOLLAR IDEA." "HEY." "DID YOU GUYS HAVE YOUR TALK?" "YEAH." "OH." "OH, WHAT?" "NOTHING." "I WAS JUST IN THERE WITH MELANIE," "AND, UH, SHE AIN'T UGLY," "THAT'S FOR DARN TOOTIN'." "WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?" "I SHOULDN'T HAVE TOLD HIM?" "NO, NO." "YOU DID THE RIGHT THING." "DEFINITELY." "YOU DEFINITELY DID THE RIGHT THING," "ALTHOUGH SHE COULD NOT BE NICER." "SHE ACTUALLY GAVE ME SOME FREE COUPONS FOR AN UPGRADE." "WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING TO ME?" "I DON'T KNOW." "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING TO HIM?" "!" "NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING." "I'M JUST THINKING." "THEY STILL ARE TECHNICALLY SEPARATED," "AND KELLY DID HAVE HER THING" "WITH THE ORTHODONTIST." "SHE SLEPT WITH DR. GOTTLEIB?" "!" "KIND OF." "IT WAS NOT A BIG DEAL." "LISTEN, DEACON, YOU'RE AN ADULT." "YOU'RE CAPABLE OF MAKING YOUR OWN DECISIONS." "WE SHOULD HAVE NEVER INTERFERED." "JUST DO WHAT FEELS RIGHT, OK?" "COME ON, BABE." "WE WERE NEVER HERE." "THE LAST 5 MINUTES NEVER HAPPENED." "YOU'RE JUST GETTING BACK FROM THE MET GAME." "THE METS WON." "YOU'VE GOT A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN" "IN YOUR APARTMENT WAITING FOR YOU." "AND GO." "OH, ARE THESE YOUR KIDS?" "THEY'RE ADORABLE." "AW, CRAP."
