Christopher Rodriguez Marquette: Adam Rove

Quotes 

• Joan Girardi : So, who else blew off Trig?

  Judith Montgomery : Me.

  Adam Rove : I did.

  Joan Girardi : Excuses?

  Judith Montgomery : Apathy.

  Adam Rove : Art project, internship. It made no sense.

  Judith Montgomery : You?

  Joan Girardi : "Behind the Music" marathon. Grand Funk Railroad. So tragic. Their manager took all their money, and now I've never heard of them.

• Adam Rove : I just got to drop some stuff in my locker, then we can start putting my sculpture together.

  Joan Girardi : Oh! Wait, I can't. I have my first appointment with the college counselor today.

  Judith Montgomery : He is so scary. He actually licks his lips when he mentions Princeton.

  Joan Girardi : Yeah, well, I'll be lucky if he mentions college.

• Adam Rove : I can't talk to you like this, okay?

  Joan Girardi : Adam. Yes, you can. Just act natural.

  Grace Polk : [approaching]  That's an oxymoron. The minute you turn on the camera, you're distorting reality. It's Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

  Joan Girardi : You sound like my brother.

  Grace Polk : Then I will shut up. And I will walk away.

• Joan Girardi : I know how weird it is to be photographed, so I thought I could make it a little easier if I just kinda, you know, told you what to do.

  Adam Rove : How is that a documentary?

  Joan Girardi : I'm supposed to document how I see things. You're a part of that. I wanna show the world what kind of couple we are.

  Adam Rove : The world?

  Joan Girardi : Okay. Public television. I know people don't really watch it, but if I do good at this, we could get free tote bags. Look, now just walk towards me and talk about all the things you like about us.

  Adam Rove : [uncomfortably]  Jane, I...

  Joan Girardi : All right, that's good, but with more feeling.
