Quotes[]

Bridget and Kerry: (both yelling at each other) I'm gonna kill you!!
Paul: Girls don't kill each other (they still yell at each other; Paul waits a moment) At least I said it.
Cate: Keep Bridget off the phone and out of the mall.
Paul: I'm a man, not a miracle worker.
Cate: Alright, you guys. Look, I'll have my cell phone if there's any problems. Like if there's a fire and your dad won't get up. If a pipe bursts and your dad won't get up. Or locusts....
Paul: Locusts? I would get up for locusts.
Cate (to Paul): I just got here. I forgot to pick up my allergy medicine. Do you think you can drop by the pharmacy?
Paul: Oh, man. You know I hate picking up that stuff.
Cate: No, no, no. It's really allergy medicine this time.
(When Bridget is deciding which pair of pants to wear)
Kerry: Could you take the fashion show outside? Those of us who can are trying to read.
Paul: It was a very challenging day, Cate and I must say, I rose to the challenge. I think I should be inducted to the Father Hall of Fame.
Cate: Father Hall of Fame and yet you couldn't put your dish in the sink.
