  • Christian Troy: You didn't have an orgasm, is that right?

  • [at the start of a consultation]

    Sean/Christian: Tell me what you don't like about yourself?

  • Julia McNamara: Do you know how long it has been since I have heard you laugh? Since I have even seen you be emotional about anything? Jesus, Sean, I haven't seen you cry since Matt was born.

    Sean McNamara: I'm not going to apologize for that. I'm a surgeon. If I get emotional patients die.

    Julia McNamara: I'm not one of your patients, Sean! I'm your wife! And on your watch, a death has occurred, the death of you and me. This marriage doesn't even have a pulse anymore.

    Sean McNamara: AntEater?

    Christian Troy: Basically, he's self-conscious about his dick, and he wants a circumcision.

    Sean McNamara: He doesn't need a circumcision. That's a vanity operation.

    Christian Troy: We're in the vanity business, Sean. It's what we do. Appearance is everything to a kid. It's how you fit in. Snip, snip, he feels better about himself, and you, sir, can make that happen. How cool is fatherhood?

    Sean McNamara: I'm not doing anything to my son's penis or my wife's breasts. I don't want my family infected by what we do here.

  • Kimberly Henry: I don't understand this! I haven't heard form him since my operation. It thought that we were gonna be together.

    Sean McNamara: Ms. Henry, I think you're confusing Dr. Troy's pleasant and very thorough bedside manner with real emotions.

    Liz Winters: If it's any consolation to ya, honey, you're not the first girl he's done this to, but at least you got a good set of tits out of it, so heal in more ways than one and just go on with your life.

  • Grace Santiago: I keep forgetting about the hierarchy of McNamara/Troy, I keep imagining I'm apart of it.

    Sean McNamara: You were brought aboard with the promise of parity.

    Grace Santiago: What about respect? It's because I slept with Christian, isn't it? Suddenly I'm no longer a professional with credentials, I'm just his latest conquest.

    Sean McNamara: I'm not here to pass judgement on your promiscuity.

    Grace Santiago: Why don't you admit it Sean. You're operating out of repressed rage because I rejected you and slept with your partner.

    Sean McNamara: Dr. Santiago, as a professional, it should have been obvious when I came on to you that I was acting out because of trouble with my marriage, it wasn't personal. It could have been anyone after you.

    Christian Troy: [shoves salesman] You're bragging to me about banging the mother of my unborn child, and you think I'm cool with that? What kind of sick freak are you?

    Salesman: She told me you weren't together!

    Christian Troy: What's the difference? That's my god damn child you're poking at!

    Salesman: She was just so lonely and beautiful. You can't see it, but I can!

    Christian Troy: [knocks salesman down] Cancel my order! Stay away from my kid!

    Matt McNamara: I have 2 dads.

    Miss Wentworth: Well, was there a divorce? Oh, got it. 2 dads. Emily Willis has 2 momies. We're seeing more and more of this.

    Christian Troy: Matt's father is my partner, Dr. Sean McNamara.

    Miss Wentworth: I understand.

    Matt McNamara: They're not gay, Miss Wentworht. My Mom slept with Christian before she married my Dad.

    Adrian Moore: Technically, I don't have any father figures, but Matt's living in my house and screwing my Mom, so I pretend he's my Dad.

    Ava Moore: It's true, Miss Wentworth. Matt and I are lovers. I was his life coach.

    Adrian Moore: You see, Matt has a problem. He's a premature ejaculator.

    Miss Wentworth: Ok, enough. I deal with dysfunctional families on a daily basis. And trust me, everyone has a story, and none of you are that special.

  • Christian Troy: [In reference to a woman who was on the schedule to have her lips, which were burnt off, rebuilt using skin from her vagina.
