- Nathaniel Fisher: The only god I know is a mean-spirited comedian in ugly pants whose every joke has the same damn punchline.
- Ruth Fisher: Something Robbie invited me to: "The Plan".
- Claire Fisher: Isn't that like a cult?
- Nate Fisher: No, it's one of those self actualization things from the 70s where they yell at you for 12 hours and don't let you go to the bathroom.
- Ruth Fisher: [takes out yogurt cup] No, not really, should I bring some kind of jar? I suppose that's not much of a solution. Oh and um ... you're on your own for dinner. I won't be back until after midnight.
- [leaves]
- Claire Fisher: The thought of Mom self-actualizing is making me nauseous.
- Nate Fisher: You're sure it's not the thought of Mom pissing into a jar?
- Alma: What do you really want to complain about really?
- Ruth Fisher: The fact that the blood stopped circulating in my rear end four hours ago.
- Alma: Okay, what else?
- Ruth Fisher: You want me to complain? Alright then, fuck this! Fuck you. Fuck all of you with your sniveling self-pity. And fuck all your lousy parents. Fuck my lousy parents while we're at it! Fuck my selfish bohemian sister and her fucking bliss! Fuck my legless grandmother! Fuck my dead husband. And my lousy children with their nasty little secrets. And fuck you Robbie for dragging me to this terrible place and not letting me have a Snickers bar! I'm going to get something to eat!
- Eileen Piper: I'm a psychic, so... y'know.
- David Fisher: Wow. That must be very interesting for you.
- Eileen Piper: It's just more information.
- Nathaniel Fisher: She really believed he was there, y'know?
- Brenda Chenowith: Well, she has to say that, right? If she claims she's a psychic.
- Nathaniel Fisher: Well, you don't think that's possible? What about you saying things happen that leave marks in people and places and time?
- Brenda Chenowith: That's physics. Energy affecting matter. Talking to dead people is delusional.
- Nathaniel Fisher: So you definitely don't believe in any kind of life after death, then.
- Brenda Chenowith: I think people live on through the people they love. And the things they do with their lives. If they manage to do things with their lives.
- Nathaniel Fisher: But that's it. That's it. That's all there is. There's nothing more. There's nothing like ... bigger.
- Brenda Chenowith: Just energy.
- Nathaniel Fisher: But there's no plan. No ...
- Brenda Chenowith: No, there's definitely no plan. Just survival. Should I have ordered the salmon?
