Alex: (to Sam) When you least expect it...expect it.

Al: Maybe any mother that leaves her kids isn't worth saving.
Sam: (hesitates) You're taking this personally, aren't you, Al?
Al: No...Alright. Yeah, maybe I am. My dad wasn't there for my mom, so sometimes I can understand that she left him. But, she left Trudy and me, too, and I could never understand that...So just make sure they stay together, Sam.

Emma: (to Sam) I want to spend some part of my life as me.

Sam: (to Hank) Don't you see? You're gonna lose her if you don't start listening to what she needs.

Sam: (to Emma) You owe it to yourself to do the best thing for you.

The copy of The Feminine Mystique that Emma is reading is actually an 1980s reprint, not the original version that came out in 1964.
