Loren: [voiceover with view of Loren] My name is Loren; I'm 26 years old; I'm an alcoholic.

Loren: This-This is breakfast of champions.

Sue, Loren's mother: If they can live in their insular little world where the two of them work out this, this dance together, they don't have to do the work on themselves.
