Episode Quotes

Dena: Really? Is he gonna break up with her to be with you?
Samantha: Uh huh. Yeah. That and because she's a total loon. And emotional. And a little unstable.

Samantha: I am not like that anymore. That was bad Sam! And you're just, you know, same Todd. I don't wanna live like that. I have nothing to hide. (the apartment door opens) Hide!

Todd: I wanna be with you on your birthday. I wanna start clean with you. I wanna be part of your life again.
Samantha: It's my birthday?

Samantha: No, I can't, I can't do it like this.
Todd: Sure you can. Just hold under the Civil War and put your foot on the Korean conflict.
