OC quotes .:seth cohen's humor:.

Episode notes

First show to be aired on it's 'orginal' spot on Wednesdays.

Show was the 'premiere' from the 6 week hiatus.

Marissa uses her cellphone in the hospital. I speak from experience...this is a major no-no!!

When Seth is surprised that Summer read the book Madame Bovary, she explains that it's the favorite book of patient Tom Shales, who is incontinent (lacking normal voluntary control of excretory functions). Tom Shales is a Washington Post critic who blasted the show in his review. (Pay back's a bitch, Mr. Shales!)

The Rescue

[Seth is in his room. Someone knocks on the door.]
SETH: Not now, Mom, I'm studying... naked.
SUMMER: (on the other side of the door) Ew.
SETH: Summer? Come in.
SUMMER: Um... no way

SUMMER: (covering her eyes) No no no no! (peeks, then takes her hands away) Mmkay, I don't get it. What kind of family do you have, Cohen?
SETH: The kind where mothers and sons wear clothes. Always. Even in the shower.

SUMMER: Mmm... (spots something and laughs) What (picks up toy horse) is this?
SETH: Uh, I don't know, I've never seen it before.
SUMMER: Uh huh, what's its name?
SETH: I don't know. (Summer gives him a look) Captain Oats. What are you doing here?

SUMMER: Yeah. I'm serious. I've gotta do something, Cohen. I need to get radical. I need Ryan.
SETH: Well, you can't have him. He's taking a placement exam. What's wrong with me, though? Am I not radical enough?
SUMMER: Well, that depends. Are you ready to take on Julie Cooper?
SETH: (pause) We need Ryan.
SUMMER: Yeah.

SETH: That's my bed.
SUMMER: Okay.
SETH: Just wanted you to know that—
SUMMER: Uh huh.
SETH: I have a feeling you'll be seeing it very soon—
SUMMER: Okay, let's go.

RYAN: I'm done waiting for Summer. (to clerk) Hi, we're here for Marissa Cooper.
SUMMER: [appears in candy striper outfit] Uh, it's okay, Denise. They're with me.
SETH: [takes a good look at Summer] Good. Lord.

SUMMER: What? I told you I was a candy striper.
SETH: I thought you were kidding.
SUMMER: It's for charity. All the girls do it.
SETH: I should be hospitalized more then.
SUMMER: Well, if you need any help...

RYAN: My background? I can't change where I'm from, but I can change where I'm going.

Seth: He's naked. Alright. He's naked. He studies in the nude. I think it's a Chino thing.

(Summer gasps. Seth begins to make funky military gestures to Summer)
SUMMER: Okay, wait, no, I don't know what that means, Cohen. I wasn't in Panama.
SETH: That means you should, uh—
SUMMER: Okay, just go, and I'll run interference.
SETH: Yeah, that's what I said. 10-4.

SUMMER: Therapist, huh? Do you have a second? Because I keep having this dream, and well I'm in the woods trying to find this restaurant, but I'm totally lost, and so hungry. See I have a reservation so I can't be late, are you following?

SUMMER: What do you want to do now, Coop?
MARISSA: I don't know what to do. I mean, what can I do?
SETH: We could hide you in one of my mom's developments. [Everyone stares at Seth] I'm kidding.

Seth: So, you still think that, after everything that happened today... when we get back to school, you're gonna be able to ignore me?
Summer: Well, all I can do is try.
Seth: I admire your will.

SANDY: Hey. Check out my new mug shot.
SETH: God.
SANDY: What?
SETH: Dad, those eyebrows are out of control.
SANDY: It's a sign of power, you know.
SETH: Well, then you must be the most powerful man in the world.
SANDY: Well, brace yourself son. It's genetic.
SETH: Yeah, there's a new invention that just came out. You might have heard of it. It's called tweezers.
SANDY: Oh ho! You're killing me. Ooh! You're killing me.
