  • The Bait-and-Switch exchange about falling in love:
    Ryan: You know that moment when you look into somebody's eyes and you can feel them staring into your soul and the whole world goes quiet, just for a second?
    Natalie: Yes!
    Ryan: Right well, I don't.
  • Ryan awkwardly trying to calm Natalie as she collapses into hysterics in the middle of the airport, although not before letting out an exasperated "Ah, fuck".
    • Alex suggests a drink and the freshly-dumped Natalie, until now a picture of prim professionalism, responds "Now you're talking!"
    • Natalie thanks Alex's generation for everything they did for feminism, to which Alex can only drily say "It was our pleasure".
  • Even while talking to a heartbroken girl, Ryan manages a snappy one-liner.
    Natalie: (sobbing) He broke up with me by text message!
    Ryan: Wow. That's kinda like getting fired over the Internet.
  • "Please can I fire the next one?"
  • The cardboard cut-out Ryan has to photograph as he travels.
