Quotes 

• Marissa : Who are you?

  Ryan : Whoever you want me to be.

  Marissa : Okay.

• Marissa : So, what do you think of Newport?

  Ryan : I think I could get into a lot less trouble where I'm from.

  Marissa : You have no idea.

• Marissa : So, what are you doing here, seriously?

  Ryan : Seriously?

  [truthfully] 

  Ryan : I stole a car. Crashed it. Actually, my brother did. Since he had a gun and drugs on him, he's in jail. I got out, and my mom threw me out. She was pissed off and drunk. So, Mr. Cohen took me in.

  Marissa : You're their cousin from Boston, right?

  Ryan : Right.

• Julie : [to Kaitlin]  Do you like my hair this straight or is it too Avril Lavigne?

  Marissa : No, it looks good, Mom.

  Julie : [sees Marissa behind her]  Oh, Marissa. You look... oh honey, I thought you were going to wear your hair down. Pulled back like that, it's a little harsh on your angles.

  Jimmy : [heads downstairs and to the front door]  Okay, let's go!

  Julie : It's going to be so amazing tonight. Are you going to wear the Donna Karan, Maris? I thought it was very forgiving.
