10) Her intelligence9) Her intuitionMichael: So, there’s going to be wine at rehab, huh?
Lindsay: Well, wine only turns into alcohol if you let it sit.
Michael: So, you just finished off the bottle?
Lindsay: Well, I had to. It’s vodka, you know. It goes bad once it’s opened.
8) Her chef skillsMichael: She’s a little bit more like me. It’s like we finish each other’s –
Lindsay: Sandwiches?
Michael: Sentences. Why would I say –
Lindsay: Sandwiches?
Michael: That time, I was going to say sandwiches.
7) Her compassionLindsay: Check it out. I found that canned ham that we’d had forever, and I put it in a pot of boiling water, and guess what I’m calling it?
Michael: Soup?
Lindsay: Hot ham water.
6) Her ambitionLindsay: You haven’t had a serious relationship since your wife, and you guys weren’t even speaking towards the end.
Michael: A lot of that was the coma.
Lindsay: Yeah, I’ve heard your side of it.
5) Her hotnessMichael: You’ve got to be the laziest person in the world.
Lindsay: If you weren’t all the way on the other side of the room, I’d slap your face.
Lindsay: I’m going to see if I can get a wrench to strip my nuts. [Everyone stares at her.] I was trying to be sexy, it just got away from me.
4) Her nurturing natureLindsay: You know what? I’m going to throw on a skirt, take off my underwear, and make your Pop-Pop proud!
Lindsay: No, you’re not going to that. You see, if I show up with you, it’ll just make me seem like I’m a mother.
Maeby: I’ve never thought of you that way.
3) Her altruismMichael: You know, instead of competing with Tobias, why don’t you try just spending a little bit more time with your daughter?
Maeby: Why? Is Tobias doing that?
2) Her moral compassLindsay: There’s a cream with real diamonds in it. I can actually smear diamonds on my face, and it’s only $400 a tub! That’s like, what? A million diamonds for $400? A million fucking diamonds!
1) Her chicken danceLindsay: Well, they expect a certain amount of theft, Michael. It’s built into the price. If I didn’t take it, then people would be overpaying for nothing … It was shoplifting, and I’m white, I think I’m gonna be OK.
