Quotes 

• Alex : [as Ben greets Alex arriving home from the hospital]  ... Don't tell me we're having a party in honor of my suicide.

  Ben : Attempted suicide. Jeez, if it were a suicide, we'd both be wearing suits.

• Sarah : So, we are all doomed, romantically speaking.

  Alex : Only on like a deep karmic level.

  Josh : For whatever reason, I'm strangely okay with that.

• [last lines] 

  Josh : [posing for group picture]  Alright, posture everyone.

  Kate : [holding the camera]  Uh, I'm going to need you to get a lot closer together than that.

  Sarah : Okay.

  Ben : Come on, come on.

  [arm around Alex] 

  Josh : Alright. I'm going to pose a quick idea, you guys. Maybe next time we do this, it's a happy occasion.

  Alex : Is there going to be a next time?

  Isaac : Uh oh.

  Sarah : Alex...

  Kate : Okay. One, two...

• [Watching Kate arrive with Isaac] 

  Sarah : Oh, she's hot.

  Alex : Your boobs are bigger.

  Sarah : That's not true! That's not true!

• Josh : Alex, where did you get these records? I feel like I'm at a garage sale.

  Alex : I bought them at a garage sale.

• Alex : I guess I was mainly just scared.

  Sarah : Of what?

  Alex : Of you all. The possibility that you didn't like me.

  Sarah : That's ridiculous.

  Alex : It's the truth. I remember that that feeling did not go away. Until, um, until junior year when Ben had me at his parents' place for Easter. We took the train there and back. Barely talked, but you know, it was, it was better than talking. It was just... Just nice.

• Alex : Hey, um... I'm sorry about what I said last night. I'm...

  Kate : It's okay. Don't worry. You're not even 48 hours removed from a traumatic event. You're suddenly the center of love and attention and you're feeling mildly manic and also oddly angry. I imagine you're also experiencing mood-cycling and you're scared as hell of the next time you'll crash, so, no. I'm not taking it personally.

  Alex : Good.

  Kate : Don't worry, though. You'll level off.

• Alex : I've got great southern exposure, so I was thinking of installing a solar array. And um, maybe a few rainwater basins too.

  Josh : That sounds great, Alex. Then you'd have everything you need to start a cult.

• Sarah : Maybe we should make one of those pacts where if we're still single when we're 35, we all just get married.

  Alex : Who, the *three* of us?

  Sarah : Yes, and Timmy of course.

  [indicating the dog] 

  Sarah : We'll make a great dysfunctional family. How's that sound Timmy?

  Josh : I'd consider it.

• Josh : I figured that I would be far less curious now if I'd just done a better job of...

  Alex : ...doing more drugs in college.

• Ben : Nice shiner.

  Alex : Nice driving.
