I know it might seem like it's out of order, but he's trying to keep you safe. It's like if you tried to build the roof on one of your Lego houses before you put up any walls. You know, Dad is really good at building things. Character, too. You should listen to him.
Kevin: I'm not like Dad.

Kevin: You belong in the deep end, Randall. Cause you're a brainiac. You too, Kate, if you can ever get out your own way. Me, I don't have what it takes. I'm not solid. The only solid thing I had in my life was Sophie and I blew it.

Cassidy: You mean like an hour ago or since I met you?
