Quotes[]
Jessica: I can't believe Melrose Place is just over, Honey. What am I supposed to do now? Honey: It was only on for an hour a week. Jessica: Is an hour of joy not enough joy? Honey: Come on. Let's go for a jog around the neighborhood. We'll get your endorphins flowing. Jessica: Being out in our boring neighborhood is just gonna remind me how much better Melrose Place was. There's no drama here. No twists, no dark secrets revealed. No unlikely alliances, no betrayals between friends. |
Evan: The hell? What... is... this? This was not approved by the HOA. Jessica: Don't you want a pool? Evan: Of course I want a pool. Jessica: So what's the problem? Evan: Um, the law. The HOA bylaws state that we have to vote on all visible property changes. Jessica: I don't need somebody's permission to put a pool on my own property. Evan: They'll fine you $35 a day. Jessica: $35 a day?! That's like a suite at the Hyatt! |
Honey: Jessica doesn't suspect a thing. Evan: I don't want to get in trouble. Honey: You won't. Our plan worked perfectly. Your mom doesn't know I planted the idea of a pool in her head, knowing it would turn Deidre against her and lead to her downfall. Poor Deidre. All alone. The whole neighborhood shunning her. Let's see how she likes it. Evan: She'll never disrespect the HOA bylaws again. Honey: I have to say I was surprised you wanted to take down Deidre, too. I thought you were friends. Evan: We power walk together, sure, but I can't be friends with someone who puts their own needs above the association. |
Eddie: Yo. You really hurt Dad's feelings. Emery: What are you talking about? Eddie: You told him he was too old for that button-up tank top he got. He really loved that thing. Emery: You told me to do it. Eddie: I said express your frustrations, not ruin a man's life. Emery: I was better off before. At least when I kept things in, I wasn't hurting anyone. I feel terrible. Eddie: Emery, wait. Who's that bear from The Jungle Book? Emery: Baloo? Eddie: Yeah. Baloo. |
Jessica: Herb gardens installed before August 1988 are grandfathered in, and therefore permitted under HOA bylaws. Deidre's was planted in '87, but you already knew that, didn't you... Evan? |
