Trentina

"Your sister and I really like each other, and we're gonna keep going out."
"Okay. Just don't say I didn't warn you about Trentina."
— Eddie Huang and Trent Masterson

"Trentina" is the sixteenth episode of the fifth season of Fresh Off the Boat. It first aired on March 1, 2019.

Synopsis[]

Eddie begins dating Trent's sister Tina (guest star Isabel Oliver Marcus, "This Is Us") but it puts a strain on his friendship with Trent. When Evan fails his physical education test because he can't run, he turns to Jessica for help, but she's even worse at running than he is. Meanwhile, Louis is thrilled when the restaurant gets the Golden Prune award as being the best place for seniors to dine, but the honor doesn't reap the results he expected.

Quotes[]

Eddie: Do you want to play until he gets back?
Tina: Enough of these games, Huang.
Eddie: Oh. Well, we can play a different game. Maybe one where the rules make sense.
Tina: I was talking about you and me, Eddie. I guess all my signals haven't gotten through that adorable thick skull of yours.
Eddie: The doctor said it's fine. We should just keep an eye on it... Wait, did you say adorable?
Tina: Yeah. I like you. Romantically. I wrote you that note on Valentine's Day, but...
Eddie: Whoa. That was you?
Tina: Okay. I feel like we're finally on the same page here. So what do you say? We doing this? Let's go out.
Eddie: Uh... Uh... Uh, I-I... I mean...
Tina: I can see this is a lot for you. Take some time, think about it. You know where to find me.

Trent: Louis, my man. I believe some congratulations are in order.
Louis: Mm, likewise, deputy. That Prune wouldn't be ours without you charming our oldest and boldest customers. What's your secret?
Trent: Insult comedy. Everyone's always so careful with old people. They get bored. That's where the geezer teaser comes in.
Louis: Hmm.
Emery: Exactly. That's why I'm always razzing Grandma. Just roasting her, y'know? But she loves it.

Eddie: I mean, I gotta respect someone who says what they want. Plus, it's always kind of fun when someone likes you. Damn, it feels good to be back in the game.
Trent: Whoa. Cool your jets there, hot shot. There's no way you're going out with Tina.
Eddie: Why? Because she's your sister? You don't think I'm good enough?
Tina: No. You're too good for her. I don't want her dragging you down. Tina is challenging.
Eddie: I dunno, man. She seems kind of cool. Maybe a little aggressive, but what's wrong with that?
Trent: I just don't think it's a good idea. But hey, when you turn 18, I'd be more than happy to set you up with Trish. She likes to... party.

Evan: There's no easy way to say this, so I'm just gonna spit it out. I failed a test. We took the Presidential Fitness Test today. I couldn't run a 10-minute mile.
Jessica: Evan, how are you going to become doctor-president if you fail a presidential test?
Evan: That's not really how it works. President Taft was a–
Jessica: No dead-white-men excuses. I expect better from you. Much better. And running? Anyone can run. What happened?
Evan: You're right. I'm sorry. I promise, by next year, I'll be ready.
Jessica: Good. And I just want you to know that I still love you.
Evan: Should I have been worried about that?

Tina: You have to make those for me one day.
Eddie: You... actually like my stupid ideas?
Tina: Of course. But one rule... Never call them stupid again.
Eddie: This is the best date ever.
Tina: Do you want the rest of my ice cream? I'm full.
Eddie: Yes. Yes! A thousand times, yes.

Trent: Eddie!
Eddie: Gah! When'd you get there?!
Trent: Have you no honor? Have you no respect?
Eddie: I do have those things. It's just–
Trent: Then why are you dating Tina?
Eddie: Look, I was just gonna let her down easy, but then she talked so fast, and then we had ice cream, and it turned out, she's, like, awesome. I... I'm sorry, Trent. Your sister and I really like each other, and we're gonna keep going out.
Trent: Okay. Just don't say I didn't warn you about Trentina.
Eddie: Trentina?
Trent: That's her full name. My parents aren't great.

Trent: So, let me get this straight. Not only did you break my sister's heart, but then you also blamed it on me? What's wrong with you?
Eddie: Look, Trent, I'm sorry.
Trent: The woman owns a Louisville Slugger, Eddie!
Eddie: I... I panicked! I didn't know what else to say.
Trent: How about, "Let's keep dating, and Trent's a great guy"? What even happened? I thought you and Tina really liked each other.
Eddie: I... I did. I still do. It's just... she kept pushing me to do stuff, and I realized you were right. She's... challenging. I don't want that.
Trent: I wasn't right at all, Eddie. I thought you were too good for my sister. Turns out she's too good for you.

Jessica: Oh, go on ahead, Evan. Leave me. Outrun the curse. Become president.
Evan: No. I want to do this with you.
Jessica: Ohh.
Runner: Get out of the way!
Evan: GO TO HELL! She's trying her best!

Eddie: Well, do you think you could possibly consider, y'know, taking me back?
Tina: Maybe later, sure.
Eddie: What?
Tina: I'm just not looking to date a project right now. I've done the work, but listen... Take some time, work on yourself. Then we'll see.
Eddie: Okay, well, how much time?
Tina: That depends, man. It's up to you.
Eddie: So, how will I know?
Tina: These are all good questions.
Eddie: Can I decide I'm ready right now?
Tina: If you think you are.
Eddie: I'm so confused.
Tina: I can't hold your hand on this. But hey, I'm rooting for ya!
