Harper Spiller : Mm. Okay, so you guys don't watch the news. Um... What do you do, like, all day?

Harper Spiller : Oh, right. Of course. Right.
Daphne Sullivan : We do a lot of Dateline. I love it. Husbands murdering their wives. Happens a lot on vacation. Scuba diving. He'll just unplug her oxygen while she's underwater. Happens more than you think.
Cameron Sullivan : Why... why are you looking at me?
Harper Spiller : Why are we all looking at you?
Cameron Sullivan : Yeah.
Daphne Sullivan : Cameron really likes to watch macho reality TV. The guys are really ugly. Oh, my God. That sounds so bad, but they are.
Cameron Sullivan : Honey, the people on Dateline aren't exactly attractive either.
Daphne Sullivan : At least they're murdering each other.

Ethan Spiller : So much content now. It's like there's billions of shows, everyone's trying to keep up. It's kinda suffocating, honestly. Yeah.
Harper Spiller : Too much. It's too much. It's like we're all entertaining each other while the world burns, right?

Daphne Sullivan : So, you do employment law. So interesting.
Harper Spiller : Mm-hmm.
Daphne Sullivan : What is that exactly?
Harper Spiller : Um, we, you know, we take on clients that are suing their employers for discrimination, sexual harassment, wrongful termination, stuff like that.
Daphne Sullivan : Amazing.
Harper Spiller : What? What is that face?
Cameron Sullivan : No, no, no. Nothing. Just, um... We've been dealing with a bunch of bogus claims lately. I mean, everyone has.
Harper Spiller : Ah! Hmm.
Cameron Sullivan : I mean, even when they have zero merit and they get thrown out in summary judgment, you still have to go through all the depos and the internal investigations. It's a total time suck. Not to mention a huge waste of money. I mean... God.
Harper Spiller : Mm. Well, they're not all bogus.
