Quotes 

• Clem : I can't wait for our first dance.

  Nick : Ooh, you know what's gonna make our first dance really special? Is when I do this. Can I get a beat?

  [Clem starts beatboxing] 

  Nick : [starting a striptease]  Yeah. That's not really a beat, but I'll dance to it anyway.

  Clem : Yeah.

  Shannon : Solid abs, kid.

• Shannon : Hey, sis.

  Clem : Shannon? What are you doing here?

  Shannon : I picked the lock and now I'm eating your leftover spaghetti. Or pad thai. Whatever it is, it's not very good.

  Clem : How did you even get in the building?

  Shannon : I snuck in behind some old blind lady with a cane. Didn't even know I was in the elevator with her. It was like a horror movie.

• Nick : Is this your sister?

  Shannon : Half-sister.

  [to Clem] 

  Shannon : You got any hot sauce or, like, a burrito?

  Nick : Well, Shannon, it's great to meet you. Hot sauce is on the stove. I'll be right back, 'cause ya boy's naked.

• Shannon : Speaking of hot sauce, who's that?

  Clem : He's my fiancé.

  Shannon : Ooh, "fiancé". Look who speaks French.

• Clem : Shannon, what are you doing here?

  Shannon : Oh, I needed a place to crash until my boyfriend gets back tomorrow. He's selling a pound of weed to pay off the deposit for a new apartment. He's a good man.

  Clem : You're gonna live with a drug dealer?

  Shannon : When you were sixteen, you lived with a drug dealer.

  Clem : Mikey did not deal drugs. Mikey did drugs. There's a difference.

• Clem : Why aren't you living with your mom?

  Shannon : Oh, you are way behind. She moved to Phoenix, like, a year ago, and I cannot take living with dad anymore...

  Clem : Shh! I told Nick that dad was dead.

  Shannon : Why would you do that?

  Clem : Because he's a narcissistic sociopath.

  Shannon : Then what are you marrying him for?

  Clem : I'm talking about dad.

  Shannon : Oh. Oh, yeah. He totally is.

• Clem : Look, family is really important to Nick. And if he found out that I cut my own father out of my life, he would never understand, so I kind of, sort of panicked and...

  Shannon : Murdered dad, you psycho?

  Clem : Look, Nick knows everything else about me, so please just don't say anything about dad.

  Shannon : If there's one thing I'm good at, it's lying.

• Shannon : I need a beer, like, yesterday.

  Clem : Uh... n-n-n-n-n-no. You cannot have a beer.

  Shannon : Dad doesn't care if I drink.

  Clem : Well, dad isn't here, is he?

  Shannon : [pretending to cry as Nick returns]  I know. He's dead. And he's never coming back, ever.

  [stopping as he leaves] 

  Shannon : You're welcome. Now can I have my beer?
