Ben Feldman: Jonah

Quotes 

• Dina : [Dina tries to convince Jonah that Amy is at the eye doctor]  I bet you're wondering why she hasn't mentioned it. It's because she doesn't want you to worry.

  Jonah : Uh-huh.

  Dina : Yeah. You know, because if the dead spot gets worse, and let's be honest, it will, you're gonna be the person taking care of her. Feeding, bathing, describing the ocean. Anyway, it's gonna be beautiful. Like a Nicholas Sparks novel. I'm excited about that for you.

• Jonah : All right, I texted Amy and she's not responding, but there is obviously no such thing as an eye dead spot. Which I know because I looked it up.

  Dina : All right, fine. I'll tell you the truth. She's not at the eye doctor. She's taking a saxophone lesson. She wants to surprise you with a smooth jazz version of a contemporary hit.

  Jonah : Okay. Dina. You have to tell me where Amy is.

  Dina : Totally. I'd love to. It's just that... Brett is biting it so hard at being the Easter Bunny. Look at him. He's garbage. I gotta go tag in.

  Jonah : No, I... I know you're lying! Brett was born to wear that suit!

• Jonah : So you're okay with Amy leaving?

  Dina : Me? Oh, no, I hate it. I'm gonna go home and stress eat an entire jar of olives. But this is pretty huge for her.

  Jonah : Yeah. Yeah. It is, yeah. It's good that you're being so supportive. I went a different direction with it.

  Dina : Really? Come on. You're a light-boned weakling who brings in no money. I mean, if you're not emotional support for Amy, then what's the point of you? I mean, I've seen you drive. That's a mess. You can't grow facial hair.

  Jonah : Okay, I get it.

  Dina : I think about you holding a hammer and try not to laugh.

  [laughs] 

  Dina : I'm picturing it now. I wish you could see this. You're really struggling.

  [laughs]
