Episode Quotes
 
Marissa: Besides, I'm not the only one crying.
Seth: What? I'm not crying. It's allergies. Besides, there's a lot of pollen in here right now. It's ridiculous.
 
Summer: Was I really mean to you?
Seth: No, that would have required you to speak to me. Nobody would speak to me.
Summer: A lot's changed in a year, huh.
 
Seth: Yeah, so do you really think a little Feng Shui would make her forget her mom slept with her ex-boyfriend?
 
Julie: I had to block you from my buddy list. You were incessant.
Luke: You blocked me?
 
Summer: Do you have the stud finder?
Seth: Oh Summer. I think you are the stud finder.
Summer: You see this hammer in my hand?
Seth: Yeah, we'll find the stud finder. What does it look like?
Summer: Don't you know what a level is?
Seth: Yeah, it's something that you advance to in a video game.
Summer: That's funny. The tool doesn't know about tools.
 
Seth: She'll watch over you with her Care Bear Stare.
Ryan: How do you know about the Care Bear Stare?
 
Luke: Welcome to Portland, bitch.
