Dialogue

Kyle: I was in the neighborhood - I was just on a date with Claire, the girl I met at the bookstore? My date did not go well, unfortunately, due to a lack of chemistry... and, I think, an overuse of profanity on my part. But, whilst on my date... I ran into Rachael. Adam: Oh, yeah? Kyle: And I would like to present to you what I am going to call Exhibit...whore! Kyle: Look at it! That's Rachael! And that's a fuckin' filthy, Jesus-looking motherfucker, and they're kissing! I did it! I fuckin' nailed you! I've hated you for months, and now I have fuckin' evidence that you suck as a person! Holy shit! Holy shit!

Kyle: Because you're his girlfriend, you cheated on him, and he has fucking cancer, you lunatic!

Dialogue

Adam: Okay... My mom is... I don't know. She's a crazy person. She just worries all day every day. And honestly, it annoys the shit out of me. It's way too much. And it's not helpful, and um, I can’t talk to her. I don't call her back. It's a problem. Katherine: So she's got this husband who can't talk to her, and this son who won't? Adam: Uh, yeah, I guess. Katherine: Makes you kind of a dick. Adam: Me? [laughs, obviously surprised by her directness] Is that, like, the medical term? Katherine: Yeah, I mean, listen... You can't change who your parents are. The only thing you can change is how you choose to deal with that. Adam: Aren’t you supposed to, like, subtly manipulate me into figuring this stuff out? Not just call me on my shit? Katherine: Yeah, you cleaned my car. So, uh, we are completely beyond that.

Adam: I want this to be over. I’m so fucking tired of being sick...if this surgery doesn’t work, that’s it -- [crying] I’ve never been to fucking Canada or told a girl I love her...it sounds stupid. Katherine: No. It doesn’t. Adam: I’m sorry I was such an asshole. Katherine: I was the asshole. I was so totally unprepared - for you. This job is really hard. If I fuck up, I could ruin someone’s whole life. Adam: I guess we’re both beginners at this. Katherine: [smiles] Yeah. Adam: What were you doing when I called? Were you on Facebook? Katherine: You know... umm... stalking my ex-boyfriend actually isn't the only thing I do in my free time. Adam: I wish you were my girlfriend. Katherine: Girlfriends can be nice. You just had a bad one. Adam: Yeah, but I bet you’d be a good one.
