Quotes from Lord John Marbury

Mrs. Landingham: Oh, I'm sorry, dear. Would you like a cookie?
Josh: Yes, thanks.

Zoey: So, Charlie, do you ever get the night off?
Charlie: No, actually.
Zoey: That's too bad.
Charlie: Oh, that's all right.
Zoey: No, I meant, 'cause it'd be cool to go out or something.
Charlie: Yeah.... I'm sorry, with me?
Zoey: Charlie, you know you don't have to stand up the whole time I'm in a room.
Charlie: Yeah, I don't know why I do that.

Mandy: We're gonna look good in California.
