- Summer: My dream involved a date. A hot guy in a tux with a carnation pinned to his lapel. Instead, I'm drawing straws between nerd boy and ass clown.
- Caleb: You could have been killed.
- Kirsten: I learned my lesson. Always eat dinner before you drink.
- Caleb: That's not the lesson to be learned here.
- Kirsten: I made an error in judgement. You should be familiar with that.
- Caleb: This is not about me, Kiki. You have a problem. And my God, did you give any thought to your kids?
- Kirsten: I am a good mother!
- Caleb: You're also an alcoholic. Your mother was one too. She did her best to hide it. But I always knew.
- Kirsten: [enraged tone] Why do you think Mom drank the way she did? Why do you think Hailey left the house at 17? If this family is screwed up, it's because of you! All our lives, you terrorized us, bullied us... you treated me, Mom, and Hailey like business employees rather than family.
- Caleb: I gave you everything you ever wanted!
- Kirsten: I know! You spoiled us to control us! Make us lead the lives you wanted than what we wanted. I may like my Chardonnay, but I am not going to die alone which is a lot more than I can say for you!
- Julie Cooper-Nichol: Sandy, I did not come here to talk about myself! But as long as we're on the subject, I could kind of use your advise.
- Sandy Cohen: Hey, if this involves you being naked please, you've got to warn me!
- [Seth and Reed are at a restaurant sitting across from "Star Wars" creator George Lucas]
- George Lucas: [to waiter] I'll have a seltzer on the rocks with a twist of lemon.
- Seth: [to waiter] I'm gonna have the same. Seltzer on the... George Lucas drinks seltzer. Every-- everything you do, every little detail for me, it's just, uh... I don't know, it's fascinating.
- George Lucas: You're too kind.
- Seth: Let me just ask you one question, and then I promise we'll get into the book... um... how did you first come up with the lightsaber?
- Reed Carlson: I'm sure Mr. Lucas doesn't have time for such large scale questions.
- Seth: Ok, fine, I'll go smaller. Did you go to your prom?
- George Lucas: Prom?
- Reed Carlson: [puts hand to her head] Oh, my God...
- George Lucas: As in, "prom"?
- Seth: I just, uh... it's a personal thing, and I was just kinda wondering if you went to yours. It'd really help me out.
- George Lucas: Well, actually, I didn't. I spent my time being creative. Drawing Ewoks... Jar Jar Binks...
- Seth: Good to know. If George Lucas can skip his prom, I can skip mine.
- George Lucas: No. Now, wait a minute. I do regret not going to my prom.
- Seth: Really? Because it's like a seminal moment?
- George Lucas: Exactly.
- Reed Carlson: Mr. Lucas, I am so sorry. Can we get back to the point now?
- George Lucas: No, no, no. Wait. It would be good for me to talk about this. The prom is a great American tradition. It's important to experience the things of being a teenager when you're a teenager. When I went off and made my film "American Graffiti", I'd never had the experience of a prom and I had to make a movie about it. I felt... hopelessly inadequate without having... really done it myself. Not having been part of that pivotal moment in teenage life, uh, I felt very sad and alone.
