"Somebody from the adoption agency will be here first thing in the morning." Tucker was concerned, though
"You okay?" Ben nodded.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"
"Ben, if you don't want to do this, man--"

"No, don't. I swear to God." Riley told Danny later at the bar.
"Okay. Okay." He laughed. She pointed her finger at him. "No, I will hurt you."

"You don't know that."
"I'm going to get a drink, you two want anything?" Mia said as she gets up
"I'm good."
