Seth Davis: you know what I think? I think that was a sales call, good job buddy
The Daily News telemarketer: so, are you going to buy a subscription?
Seth Davis: [before immediately hanging up] No I already get The Times.

Abbie Halpert: do you mean is this little black girl taking care of her grandmother because her mother is a crack head?
Seth Davis: [jokingly] yeah exactly, I thought it was "smack" though.
Abbie Halpert: your right.
Seth Davis: [referring to her attitude] You've got to get ahold of that edge, it's kind of sharp.
Abbie Halpert: I know, it's just that I get so much shit at JT that sometimes I just get into that mode to get them off of me you know?

Seth Davis: one
Abbie Halpert: exactly
