    • [opening lines]

      Joshua: [voiceover] Ever think on how you got somewhere, or why? Well, my somewhere was an art town on the edge of the Pacific. The name of the place didn't matter much. I just knew I didn't belong.

    • Joshua: [noting her school uniform] That's a nice outfit, by the way.

      Amber: Thank you. It's required.

      Joshua: Thank God. I was beginning to think your grandma dressed you.

    • Vanessa: Joshua, are you an only child?

      Joshua: What does the file say?

      Vanessa: It's incomplete.

      Joshua: Yeah, well, that sounds like me.
