On friends friending your parents on Facebook:

Danielle: I know someone who’s friends with MY parent on facebook.

Lindsay: Oh… And I’m the one who added your dad. I’m like Abbi.

Danielle: *glares at Lindsay*

On the guest celebrity appearance:

Lindsay: It’s Fran!

Danielle: FRAN DRESCHER. OH MY GOD, SHE LOOKS SO GOOD! Look at her!

Lindsay: Is your style more Fran’s or Ilana’s mom.


Danielle: Mine is Fran’s, but more goth.


Lindsay: Oh me too.


Danielle: There are just too many colors she’s pulling off that I cannot handle on my body.


Lindsay: I actually would love that dress if it were all black with the cheetahs.


Danielle: Or all dogs.


Lindsay: Oh my god.

When Abbi and Ilana are at the pool:

Danielle: Do they have a belly button?

Lindsay: Holy shit. Look at Abbi’s abs. I can see five of them

Danielle: I don’t think Soulstice gave her to credit she deserved. Do you see how Abbi’s swimsuit looks like the Broad City intro?

Lindsay: Oh wow. It does.


Danielle: Do you think they planned that?

When they’re walking around the apartment complex:

Danielle: This is what it’s like at my dad’s apartment complex.

Lindsay: What? Old men on benches?

Danielle: No, alligators. But yes, that too.

When things are going too well:

Danielle: I think something bad is going to happen. They’re glorifying Florida too much.

Lindsay: What do you think the thing that makes them hate Florida will be?

Danielle: Guns, alligators, heat, thunderstorms.

When Abbi and Ilana are told the apartment is $400:

Danielle: That’s how much my rent cost in bumblefuck Nebraska.

Lindsay: I think it’s that much for the whole house.

Danielle: I’m offended. How could anyone think any rent is $400?

Lindsay: I really think the cost of the house is $400.

Danielle: That’s not true. It’s too unrealistic.

Lindsay: They were cartoons literally two weeks ago.

Danielle: IT’S STILL NOT TRUE!

When Abbi and Ilana start dressing like the people at the complex:

Lindsay: Look how they are dressed. Do you think they’re going to look older as they acclimate?

Danielle: Do you think this is going to contrast with the young Abbi episode?

Lindsay: Holy shit, that’s deep.

Danielle: Do you think this season of Broad City is surreal?

Lindsay: Yes. And that’s why I love it.

When they went to the store:

Lindsay: They’re Lemonading! She’s wearing LEMONS on her shirt as they are LEMONADING.

When Lindsay needed a snack break:

Lindsay: Oh my god. I forgot to open these plantains from 15 minutes ago.

Danielle: …do you still want to open them

Lindsay: Yeah.

When Abbi and Ilana see the Trump skywriting:

Danielle: SEE? Something bad is going to happen!

Lindsay: Oh my god. There are so many signs. Their hair, the guns, Trump.

Danielle: Do you think they’re going to turn into Trump supporters?

When Abbi and Ilana realize Florida is super racist:

Danielle: SEE I TOLD YOU? That’s so real.

Lindsay: Where do you think is more racist? Florida or South Carolina?

Danielle: Anywhere can be as racist as Florida. Because think of it: people move to Florida.


Lindsay: So are you saying people are less likely to move to South Carolina than Florida?


Danielle: Oh, I don’t know.

When Ilana’s mom and aunt are fighting:

Danielle: Oh, their mom did die.

Lindsay: Right! Because Abbi talked about pegging at the funeral.

Danielle: Is that what it’s like to have siblings?


Lindsay: No. Not for me.


Danielle: Well, at least it will never be a possibility for me. Have you ever gotten high with someone’s parents?


Lindsay: No, but I want to. Look at them all getting along now! So many problems get solved because of weed.

The Florida license plate:

Danielle: It says America’s droopy dick? Did you see that!?

Lindsay: No! Oh my god. What does it say on their normal ones?

Danielle: The sunshine state.

Lindsay: What’s Pennsylvania’s motto?


Danielle: I don’t know.

When Abbi and Ilana were driving back to New York:

Danielle: They got the grandma’s car?

Lindsay: ALL FROM WEED!

Danielle: Oh my god. LINDSAY. We can go on a road trip to Florida to visit my dad!

Lindsay: Why? Did they legalize weed?

Danielle: No. They do the opposite of that there.

When Ilana was in the suitcase on Lincoln’s doorstep:

Lindsay: OH MY GOD LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT.

Danielle: What?!

Lindsay: Did you ever hear the story about Taylor Swift being carried in a giant suitcase from her hotel room to her car?


Danielle: No.


Lindsay: Look it up.

After the episode:

Danielle: I didn’t feel like there was a lot of substance in this episode.

Lindsay: The moral of the story is if you are fighting with someone and you smoke some weed, it will get better.

Danielle: Thats a good lesson. They never ran into an alligator, though. I thought they would.


Lindsay: Is the alligator why you’ve been so critical of this episode?


Danielle: More stuff would happen if one did show up.
