What is happening?! We were supposed to have more time!

Mike

We minimize her.... people tune into reality shows to be sad about someone getting broken up with in a jacuzzi, not to be sad about a woman who was nice to everyone and finally found love but died of cancer way too young because that is a reminder that life is crushingly unfair which is exactly what people tune into these shows to forget about, okay? So we minimize her.

Nick

Nick: It can't be panic attacks. Do the thing where you yell at me again and call me a stupid bitch.
Monica: You're not dying, you're grieving. You're sad about Paula and you're afraid of wasting your life being a snake in the grass. You stupid bitch. Sometimes things happen that require us to stop and reflect and feel, Nick. Paula died and no one is okay, including you. It seems to me that you can either make something beautiful in her honor or continue to produce garbage to chase ratings.

Monica: When you auditioned for the show I thought you were just a dreary little office drone.
Gabby: Okay.
Monica: But I see how badly I misjudged you because you might be a genius.

Hi Mike. This is it! I assume it's just before curtain. Listen, baby, all of our friends, everyone on that show, they're helping us go through something so hard. So even if you don't want to go out there tonight, do it for them. Do it for me. Most important, do it for you. Be a part of something and then keep being a part of more things, I wish I had something more profound to say but that's all I got. Just keep doing stuff with people because that's what life is. My beautiful husband. Break a leg. I love you so much, and I want you to dance like I'm watching because I am.
