I should go in there and be like, "Excuse me, where are the beta fish? Also, could you put your penis inside me?" Oh! Not you. God. What if you actually did that? What if you lost your virginity in a Petland? I think it'd be kind of nice. All the little tropical fish watching. It'd be kind of spiritual. [laughs] [school bell rings]

Oh, my God. Would you please look at that stupid shirt my brother's wearing? [Krista] Oh, you can see his nipples. How does he not realize that all that does is scream, "I have a body complex worse than a girl." How much does he even work out now? It's OCD. You should have seen him. He had a conniption 'cause my mom won't by him creatine anymore since it fucks up your kidneys. I was like, "I know, Darian. I know. What does Mom expect, you to win people over with your personality?"

Hey, so, uh, just a heads-up, but yesterday when you were giving your lecture, you were like, "Oh, blah, blah, blah and then the North seceded from the Union." You meant to say the South seceded. You accidentally said the exact opposite. I didn't want to raise my hand and be all, "Excuse me, these kids are pretty confusable." Just thought maybe you'd want to know. -[taps desk] -Oh. Hey. [clears throat]
The Edge of Seventeen
Yep. Yeah. [chuckles] I don't know where that came from, but-- -[Krista] What's his name? -Erwin Kim. I don't know him. You'd freaking love him. He's adorable. So are you gonna hook up with him? No, not like that. Like pathetic adorable. Like I wanna carry him around in a BabyBjorn. [Krista chuckles]
The Edge of Seventeen
No. Yeah, you don't sound very believable, and you're making me nervous, Nadine. Your upper arms are breathtaking. -Where are you going? -Well, it's last minute, but Brent called me, the-the dentist one, and he asked if I wanted to go to Manzanita for the weekend, and I thought, you know what? I deserve to be a little selfish once in a while, so-- Is that one of the, um, Match.com guys? Yeah. You should go for as long as you want.
The Edge of Seventeen
[door closes] -Mm-hmm. -[cell phone buzzing] What? Dibs. Huh? -Dibs, dibs, dibs. -What are you even saying? Mom's fucking a dentist in Manzanita for two days, so I called dibs on the house. Ew. Bye. You are so sick for saying it like that. Mom's boobs are jangling around a dentist's face. See it, Darian. See Mom's titties all up in that dentist's face. - Ah-ah. -♪ Let's go ♪ ♪ And the man in the back said everyone attack ♪ ♪ And it turned into a ballroom blitz ♪ ♪ And the girl in the corner said, Boy, I want to warn you ♪ ♪ It'll turn into a ballroom blitz Ballroom blitz ♪ ♪ Ballroom blitz ♪ ♪ Ballroom blitz ♪ -Ow! -♪ Ballroom blitz ♪
