- Jameel Fisher: She your boss?
- Andrea Marino: Um, she's my partner.
- Jameel Fisher: You're partners with a white lady?
- Andrea Marino: Well, she's also my friend, Jameel. She's my best friend.
- Jameel Fisher: My dad says that people wouldn't fight if they stuck with their own kind.
- Andrea Marino: Well, your dad's a pretty smart guy. You know what my kind is? Here. People who are respectful of others, people who are intelligent, kind, funny, nice to kids... People like Melinda.
- Jameel Fisher: She's funny?
- Andrea Marino: Oh, she's so funny. See, that's the thing about people, Jameel. You... you don't know who they are just by looking at them. You have to get to know them. But, your dad is absolutely right. Once you find out that someone's *your* kind, you stick with 'em.
- Andrea Marino: [at the dedication ceremony for Judge Merrick] So, how come I never heard of this guy?
- Melinda Gordon: Maybe you need to be on trial more often.
- Andrea Marino: You're hilarious.
- Andrea Marino: You ever notice how people shop like crazy in the pouring rain, but one clap of thunder and they scurry home like roaches?
- Melinda Gordon: Hmm. Roaches. Nice visual.
- Andrea Marino: I liked it.
- Melinda Gordon: Is there anything I can do?
- Judge Walter Merrick: [amused] I think saving my life was enough for one night.
- Ely Fisher: [to Clive Slade] I've come to work on time for eighteen years, never took one sick day, and you're gonna start him at a dollar more an hour than you pay me? How is that fair?
- Link Hofstadter: [from the side] You think I'd work for less than some colored man?
- Ely Fisher: I'm takin' him! You better stand back or I may have to take you, too. There're people over here who are very interested in you.
- Ely Fisher: [in Judge Merrick's version of events] Don't you ever call me "boy," you dumbass cracker!
- Melinda Gordon: [to Ely] Lots of kids can see spirits.
- Andrea Marino: [seeing Melinda alone] Uh, are you talkin' to me?
- [Melinda shakes her head nervously]
- Andrea Marino: Okay, should I get ready to run screaming from the store?
- Melinda Gordon: I'll get back to you on that one.
- Ely Fisher: Tell him he grew up strong, and I'm proud of him for that, but he's gotta grow up soft now. He's got to teach his son to be both.
