- Marlo: I bet you have big plans. I mean, your twenties are great. They are, but then your thirties come around the corner like a garbage truck at five AM.
- Marlo: If I had a dream that didn't come true, I could at least be pissed off at the world. Instead I'm just pissed off at myself.
- Tully: I'm here to take care of you.
- Marlo: I thought you were taking care of the baby.
- Tully: Yeah, but you pretty much are the baby. I mean, even though this one's been earth-side for three weeks, her DNA is still inside of you.
- Marlo: [chuckles] Right, yeah.
- Tully: No, actually her cells will hang around in your bloodstream for years, and though Mia here will be her own person someday, right now she's still very much an extension of you. She knows your smell, your voice, your heartbeat. And you know her better than anyone. I mean, you built her from the toes up.
