[edit] Quotes
Summer: Was I really mean to you?
Seth: No.
(pause)
Seth: That would have required speaking to me.
Sandy: We only have two hours to unleaven the kitchen.
Sandy: Who is that woman?
Seth: Not the nana.
Kirsten: Come on you guys. Maybe she's changed. Maybe she's mellowed. Maybe she's genuinely happy to be here. (everyone stares at Kirsten) No you're right, something's wrong.
Sandy: She's staging an intervention. To put me back on the path to righteousness, or in my mother's case self righteousness.
Nana: Your father doesn't know me as well as he thinks he does.
Seth: Well you're the one who doesn't want to stick around so whose fault is that.
Seth: I gotta go. Summer's having a hebrew hernia.
Sandy: Who's coming to the airport with me?
(everyone ignores him)
Sandy: Seth?
(Seth points to Ryan)
Sandy: Ryan? You're not ready for the Nana. No-one's ever ready for the Nana. That woman is scary.
Nana: (from the doorway) Hello?
Sandy: Can't be.
Nana: The door's wide open. A person could walk in here, take everything and kill us all.
Seth: It is. It's the Nana.
Seth: I don't know who that woman is, but it's not the Nana.
Ryan: (talking about Marissa) Where else could she be?
Seth: She was even nice to my mom and the nana has never been a fan of the Kirsten. She's like the Green Arrow to my mother's Hawkman.
(Ryan looks confused)
Seth: The Cyclops to her Wolverine, two people who have nothing in common suddenly getting along.
Ryan: I'm not so sure Marissa's glad to have me here.
Eddie: Come on man, of all the places she could've gone, she chose Chino. She picked the one place she knew only you could find her.
Seth: What's the GP, RA?
Ryan: I didn't understand a word you said.
Seth: Game plan, Ryan Atwood.
Ryan: So, you're just going to use initials now?
Seth: Yeah, it saves time.
Ryan: Not if you've to translate.
Seth: GP.
Ryan: Game plan?
Seth: Good point.
