Margaret
It's easy to feel at peace when you're just eating quinoa all day and sleeping 14 hours, but in the real world? I don't think you're doing her any favors keeping her here.
Noah
Helen, is that what you're wearing? We talked about this. You have to wear something that makes you look sober.

Alison: I was certain that I would matter to people.
Cole: And you do.
Alison: No, I don't. That's the whole point. I don't. I'm nothing.
Cole: Not to me.
Alison: I'm afraid there might be something wrong with me.
Cole: What's that supposed to mean?
Alison: What, does everyone think I'm just a slut?

Noah: What the fuck is going on?
Helen: Why are you doing this to us?
Max: Would you like to fuck and then open your present, or open your present and then fuck?
Helen: Open the present.
Helen: Noah wants money.
Margaret: I'm sorry?
Helen: Were you gonna ask how the hearing was, or are you gonna talk some more about your hair dos?
Helen: Maybe. If you stop saying paramore.
John: If I?
Helen: I mean, what the fuck was that, John? You said it fourteen times.
John: Well, it happens to be the legal term for it, but if you prefer I could say concubine. Fuck buddy? Slut face?
Helen: How 'bout cunt? Cunt works for me.
