Carrie’s little sister, Dorrit, had plenty of good lines this week, and she’s most definitely growing on me as a character. Also, Larissa kick-started the episode comparing models to emaciated muggles. Best line of the night!
Here are seven quotable moments.
- “In two weeks time, two emaciated muggles will cling to that bag like their lives will depend on it.” — Larissa to Carrie about a photo shoot featuring Carrie’s purse.
- Carrie: “We’re alone for exactly sixty-five seconds. I timed it.”
Sebastian: “Just imagine what would have happened if we had another nineteen seconds.”
- Maggie kisses Walt in the hallway. Walt: “Stop.”
Maggie: “I just want to feel close to you.”
Walt: “Well you couldn’t be any closer than you are right now. You’re kind of smothering me.”
Maggie: “I’m just trying to get something started. It’s not like you ever do. I’m kinda all alone in this.”
Walt: “Well maybe you shouldn’t try so hard. It makes you seem desperate.”
- “I couldn’t believe it. One night, I wrote my name on my mother’s bag in an attempt to salvage it, and now here I was, holding a Zebra and watching my purse be photographed for ‘Interview’ magazine.” — Carrie
- Walt: “The longer I waited and wondered where you were…”
Maggie: “I wasn’t with anyone. I swear.”
Walt: “It doesn’t matter. That’s weird, right? That I wouldn’t care.”
- Carrie: “I was hoping to make it up to you. Want to hang out? We can make a night of it. I think Mouse is coming over — watch ‘The Wall’ or something.”
Dorrit: “Are we going to be stoned?”
Carrie: “No.”
Dorrit: “Then I don’t get it. What’s the point?”
- Mouse: “I just miss him.”
Maggie: “I miss Walt.”
Carrie: “I miss Sebastian.”
Dorrit: “You guys are so lame.”
