- Rush Sanders: I always knew you were stupid, but I never thought you'd be so self-destructive!
- Steve Sanders: Thanks for the support, as usual.
- Rush Sanders: Oh, good sonny boy. Keep up that sarcasm on the unemployment line.
- Steve Sanders: What does that mean?
- Rush Sanders: It means you lost your job at ITM, and you embarrassed the hell out of me considering that I was the one that got you that job in the first place. Scott Coveny told me to tell you that you're finished there. He even told me to tell you not to even come back to clean out your office.
- Steve Sanders: What are you talking about?
- Rush Sanders: You messed up is what I'm talking about! You delivered the present that Scott was sending to his mistress to his niece. His wife's sister's kid got a leather bustier. His mistress got a Holly Home Maker oven! What the hell is wrong with you, you idiot? That note that was included in the bustier is gonna cost Scott a fortune now since his wife is going to sue him for divorce.
- Steve Sanders: [incredulous] Dad... I just delivered the packages to the addresses on the labels as Scott told me to. I didn't write them. I didn't put the address labels on the wrong packages or vice versa. I didn't screw up. Somebody else did.
- Rush Sanders: [scoffs] Somebody else screwed up? That's your MO, kiddo. Did you just make that up, or did you rehearse it by saying it in front of a mirror before saying it to me? Yeah... sure, you mess up and it's always somebody else's fault! You used that same excuse just last year for the bloody fire!
- Steve Sanders: You know what? I don't need to take that crap from you. That's your MO. I didn't do anything wrong, and you never believe me. I got nothing further to explain to you, 'cause you just will not believe me.
- Rush Sanders: Sometimes I'm ashamed to call a loser like you my son.
- Steve Sanders: Then don't bother. You're not my father anyway!
- Rush Sanders: Don't say that.
- Steve Sanders: Why not? You're not my father! You've got nothing to be ashamed about, and neither do I!
- Susan Keats: [Trimming the tree at the Walsh household] Is it true that for your first Christmas in L.A. you spray painted a dead tree?
- Brandon Walsh: It's an ugly rumor.
- Cindy Walsh: [Answering the front door] Rush, come on in!
- Rush Sanders: Cindy! What a nice surprise, hi, I didn't know you were in town.
- Cindy Walsh: It was a last minute visit.
- Rush Sanders: Is Jim here, I'll take him out on the golf course.
- Cindy Walsh: Uh, no, I came by myself.
- Rush Sanders: Everything all right, kid?
- Cindy Walsh: Actually no.
- Rush Sanders: Anything I can do?
- Cindy Walsh: Marry me?
- Brandon Walsh: [Handing her the package from Jim] Who do you think this is from?
- Cindy Walsh: [Opens the package and reads the apology note from Jim and opens the gift] Oh what a lovely angel. Brandon I have to call the airline, there's a reservation I need to make.
- Steve Sanders: [At the Peach Pit the next morning] What kind of mood is he in?
- Nat Bussichio: Not good pal.
- Steve Sanders: That makes two of us.
- [Goes to join his father]
- Steve Sanders: [At the park talking with Steve] It went great!
- David Silver: So you in the will again?
- Steve Sanders: Very funny Silver Bells.
- Steve Sanders: Incoming!
- [a snowball that Steve has just thrown hits Colin in the shoulder]
- Colin Robbins: [Colin looks at Steve] Are you kidding me Sanders?
- [Drops the hot chocolate and throws a snowball at Steve]
