Lexy: Hedda who? Jack: You call yourself a writer. You should know. She was the most famous gossip columnist ever. Lexy: I am not a gossip columnist. I give advice. The article in the Daily Examiner is a human interest piece. Jack: Right. Sure it is.

Lexy: Oh, no. That detective thinks that Miss Dawson has something to do with Mr. Walker's disappearance and it's my fault. Jack: Don't flatter yourself. She's the lead suspect without your big mouth. Lexy: The only thing she is guilty of is loving him. Jack: That's definitely a crime. Why can't you tell it like it is? She threatened him. We both heard it. Lexy: She didn't. She said this school wasn't big enough for the two of them. Besides, she's too petite to murder. Jack: Well, didn't you ever hear of Lizzie Borden? Lexy: I think I've heard of Dizzie Borden.

Lexy: [to Jack] You're scared, aren't you? Jack: I'm not scared. I didn't wanna upset the detective. He seemed kinda strange. Lexy: That's because he was not a detective. Jack: What?

Jack: [to Lexy] Besides, how can you tell a Pumoni suit from across the room? Lexy: Trust me, I can spot a knockoff from a mile away and that was the real thing. Same with the watch. The best. Platinum band, 18-carat accents and mother-of-pearl dials that allow you to check any two time zones simultaneously. It's the ultimate in chic. Just call it my New York sensibility hard at work. Jack: Wow, who'd of thought that your insane obsession with material objects would come in handy? Lexy: I'll take that as a compliment.

Jack: Look, Brooklyn's not fancy like the Upper East Side, okay? I like it here. Everybody's cool. I bet you don't know your neighbors, right? Lexy: We don't have neighbors. We own the whole floor, but I did meet the people below us when I overflowed the bathtub once. Jack: Right. Overflowed the bathtub.
