Anna (in Tess's body): Are you mad?
Ryan: No.
Anna (in Tess's body): Do you, like, not want to get married now?
Ryan: No. No I don't. Not if you're gonna put me in this role.
Anna (in Tess's body): What role?
Ryan: The role of insensitive stepfather who couldn't care less, or thinks it's a stupid rock band, or any of the preposterous things you just said. How can you say I don't care? I'm not that guy, Tess, and if that's who you think I am, then this is never gonna work. When I fell in love with you, I knew you came with a history and a family, and I respect the hell out of that. You have always put the kids first. That's exactly how it should be, that's how I want it. I never pushed Anna, because I want her to like me on her own terms, in her own way.
