Episode Quotes
 
Seth: I was into recycling way before it was cool. Al Gore got half his stuff from a paper I wrote in 6th grade.
 
Kaitlin: You could walk in front of him - I mean, if he's a butt guy.
Taylor: I don't know if he's a butt guy.
Kaitlin: Well, it couldn't hurt. I mean, girl, you've got a great butt.
Taylor: You are such a sweetie! Tell me more!
 
Dean: One final question. There is still one rabbit missing.
Summer: I don't know anything about that!
 
Taylor: You know its odd but I never appreciated how funny Ryan is. Life -- such a journey. Well, have a nice day.
Sandy: She said Ryan was funny ...
 
Taylor: Yes, I have a psychological predilection to become become romantically attached to men who are nice to me; due to the fact that I was raised by a she-wolf of a mother who practiced emotional terrorism. Does that mean that if by some miracle love does come into my life, I should deny it?! What kind of person would that make me? What kind of life --
Seth: (interrupting) Taylor, what do you want me to do?
Taylor: Find out if he's ready to start dating.
 
(on the phone with Kirsten)
Julie: So what, Sandy just served me up like a piece of meat?! (pause) How rich is he? (pause) Five o'clock will be fine.
 
Sandy: Hey, how'd it go with The Bullit?
Kirsten: Well, as it turns out Julie was dating his 25 year-old son.
Sandy: That's a weird coincidence.
Kirsten: That about sums it up.
 
Seth: Bollywood, huh? I didn't know you were such a world cinema buff. Especially at 2:30 in the morning.
Ryan: What are you doing up?
Seth: I had a dream. Summer was marrying Ralph Nader and I was playing the marimba at the wedding.
Ryan: Good gig.
 
Taylor: You might want to sit down. I have huge news and a favor to ask of you.
Seth: You're in love with Ryan and you want my help convincing him to date you.
Taylor: Wow.
Seth: You said he was funny. It's kind of a giveaway.
