Jane: How was it?
Ziggy: Fun! I made friends!

Abigail: You seem a little wobbly. Are you having one of your massive periods?
Madeline: No. No. What people don't tell you is that you lose your children.

Madeline: And don't your start.
Chloe: I'm on your side, woman.

Chloe: When I grow up, I'm gonna run a massive label. Do you have plans?
Ziggy: No.
Chloe: What kind of music do you listen to? Don't tell me. Bowie.

You know how I feel about riding with texters. It is worse than drinking and driving.
