Alex: 'Sup fam, I was just wondering how the planning is coming for my quince?
Penelope: What the hell are you talking about?
Alex: Oh well, I thought that since Elena had a quince, obviously I would also be getting a party to celebrate my coming of age. This being a house of gender equality and all.
Alex: I just need five hundred dollars, okay?!
Penelope: Five hundred dollars?! Why?!
Alex: For once, can't you just give me five hundred dollars without asking any questions?!
Penelope: So what was your plan? You were just going to keep buying clothes until I showed up to a fake graduation looking fantastic?
Alex: I'm not saying it was a good plan, but that was the plan.
Penelope: Alex, relax. You only took one class, it's okay not to be perfect.
Alex: Not in this family! I mean everyone here is killing it! And a badass! And a strong independent woman!
Alex: So I figured that if I'm not gonna be great, it's better not to do it, right?
Penelope: No. You gotta keep doing it.
Alex: You already said I could quit.
Penelope: Yeah, that's when I thought you hated it, but now that I know you love it, I expect you to work until you're miserable. You can't be afraid to fail. You think I'm gonna love you any less because you're not perfect?
Alex: I mean, I'd rather not find out.
It's okay to be bad at some things. Dare to suck! It's the first step to getting good. And if you love the fashion thing, you have to keep going back, and not be afraid to be bad at it for a while. Because you'll get better. We're all learning. It's a process.

Avery: Now you have a buddy. Me. And our baby doesn't need a creepy stuffed companion, 'cause they'll have us.
