Quotes[]
Jessica: Like, if I were managing this bar, I'd put up a football banner, get some men in here. It's all ladies. Deb: Yeah, by choice. Jessica: See? That's why you're a bad manager, Deb. You're ignoring 50% of the population. How are these women gonna meet anyone? |
Nicole: [to Honey] I need to talk to you. Deb: Kristen, get that bottle of champagne. Barb, get that cot ready in the back. We've got to be prepared for this to go either way. Bev, you set? Bev: It's either gonna be B4 or C29. Nicole: Um, I've been wanting to tell you this for a while, but I could never find the right time. But maybe there's never a right time. So... I'm gay. Honey: Oh, Nicole. Come here. Bev: C29, baby! Jessica: What do you mean you're gay? You're not a man. She's not a man. You mean it can go the girl way? |
Honey: Well, I'm glad you told me. You know I'll always support you. Jessica: How about Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing? Nicole: Again, I'm not attracted to any men. Jessica: Wow. |
Eddie: You came out to my mom? Jessica? Jessica Huang? Nicole: It really blew her mind. She kept asking me, "You feel nothing for Denzel?" Again, I-I'm not attracted to any men. Eddie: Not even Denzel, though? When he's in a suit? |
Marvin: You didn't tell me you were playing softball, Princess. Nicole: Yeah, I'm on the Denim Turtle team. Look, Dad, I– Marvin: Oh, those Denim Turtle gals are great. You just make sure that's the only team of theirs you're playing on, huh? |
Honey: It was just a joke. A really bad joke. I'm sure he didn't mean it any more than that one he tells about Mexican train killers having "loco-motives." Jessica: Ha! Oh, I just got that! Loco-motives. Nicole: Honey, it's okay. I'll just never tell my dad and live my life in secret forever. No big deal. Honey: That's a very big deal. A life in secret is no way to live. Trust me, I know. I didn't tell my parents I was dating Marvin for years. Jessica: Why? Honey: Because he's white. Jessica: But... you... You're white. Honey: Yeah, and you know parents and their expectations. Anyway, when I finally got the courage to tell them, I was so relieved. And they ended up loving Marvin. Honey: Will you be there when I tell him, for moral support? Honey: Of course. And we can tell him at movie night, so he'll be relaxed. Jessica: Watch Crimson Tide. Tell him after the part when Denzel relieves Gene Hackman of his command. Or maybe after watching that, you won't have anything you need to tell him at all. |
Marvin: Nicole and I had a real good talk the other night– Jessica: At movie night. I know. Jessica: And she said that you weren't supportive of her preference. Jessica: I was supportive. If Nicole wants to be gay, she should be gay. Marvin: What? Jessica: What? Marvin: What did you say? Jessica: Uh... what? Marvin: Nicole said she preferred to play shortstop and you made her play first base. Jessica: Yes. That's also what I was talking about. Being a coach, you have to make hard decisions. Marvin: Nicole. You're gay? Jessica: [mouths] I'm sorry. |
Honey: You outed Nicole? Jessica: It was an accident! I thought you already told him. You said you were gonna tell him on movie night. Honey: I said we'd hang a pride flag outside the front door if we were successful. Jessica: What's a pride flag? |
