Quotes edit see section history

• “You'll do, won't you?" "What did that enigmatic statement mean? I'll do...what! For what? Does she always say things like that then scamper off and leave whoever she was talking to confused?”

  Doreen and Carlin

• “What? Did I slosh some or something?" "No, but damned if you didn't make taking a drink of coffee look like a sexual experience. God, don't teach Severo that or I'll never finish a cup of coffee around him again.”

  Carlin and Laine

• “I swear, Matthew Nixon, you may think I'm a helpless little guy, but I can flip you on your back and kick your ass before you know what hit you.”

  Carlin to Matt

• “It was an innocent offer of comfort. But possessive and jealous looks good on you, Matt.”

  Brendon to Matt

• “If we could figure out how to market McKinton's residents' ability to gossip faster that they can breathe, we'd be wealthy men. I'd be like telepathy in a bottle." "And that's a good thing?”

  Brendon and Carlin

• “Love it like that. It kind of slaps you upside the head and grabs you by the balls, and there isn't anything you can do but give over to it." "You just managed to take the epitome of romance and turn in into an experience to be terrified of.”

  Severo and Carlin

• “I'll finish your reports. Don't bother coming back until you're human again." "If y'all would get out of the way...”

  Laine and Matt

• “I’m an attorney, I know all about diverting people away from subjects you don’t want them to broach. However, given the fact I was a colossal jackass to you when we met, I’ll drop it—for now.”

  Carlin to Matt

• “Robbie really did a number on you. I had no idea chickens could be so vicious. I’ll feel like a real man next time I sit down and have my favourite chicken dinner.”

  Carlin to Matt

• “Great, so I actually have a killer rooster, that’s what you’re telling me. Wonder why Robbie Red didn’t try to get me too?” “You’re just too cute. Or maybe the rooster was afraid of getting sued.” “More like getting stewed.”

  Carlin and Matt

• ““You do realise you just threatened a deputy, right? I could haul you in, put you in one of our nice cells…” Carlin laughed!”

  Matthew Nixon

• “Matt smacked his forehead hard enough to make his vision blur. “Why the fuck didn’t either of us think of that?” Carlin shrugged. “That’s what went through my head, too, though I didn’t try to slap my brain out like you just did.”

  Matt and Carlin
