Ben: So did you play any music over the summer?
Julie: Yeah. I wrote a lot of songs, too.
Ben: You did? That’s great!
Julie: They had titles like, ”When Ben Dies”.

Ben: You know what? Not everybody's like you, all right? Crazy-sensitive and always judging everybody.
Felicity: I don't always judge everybody. I always judge you.
Ben: Well, I can't live up to that, all right? I'm a guy in college. If I want to make out with a Power Ranger... I can do that. I mean, not everything has big meaning, okay? I mean, yes, we had a nice moment, but so what? It doesn't mean anything.
“Ben wanted to go out with me tonight, okay? But I told him about this stupid...”

Noel: Hey! Hey! You still haven't seen Felicity have you?
Elena: What the hell are you on?
Noel: On? What am I on? My God, you look so small just sitting there.
Elena: And you're sweating.
Noel: [Rapidly] Of course I'm sweating, you'd be sweating too, if you were me because then you'd be me, and you'd be sweating. Is it cold in here?
Elena: No.
Elena: Don't try to deny it. You just went whiter than usual.
Felicity: Who told you that?
Elena: That Halloween costume you live with. And if you want to know why I'm so upset, it's because if procedure as benign as a fridge lottery is susceptible to sexual conspiracy - what does that say about the whole system?
Felicity: You think I'm dating Noel to get an appliance?
Elena: I think you're dating Noel and getting an appliance.
“Look, I… I understand why you rather see Felicity with someone like Noel....”

Meghan: This is how I know Felicity still likes you. You ready?
Ben Covington: Yeah. Wha... what is it?
Meghan: Sarah McLachlan.
Ben Covington: What?
Meghan: When Felicity showed up last year, head over heels for you, Sarah McLachlan was all she listened to. If "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" wasn't in the CD player, it was only so "Solace" could get a little airplay. I started calling it 'Ben music'... not to her face but behind her back. But then it went away, and I thought Sarah was gone for good. I almost started celebrating. And then you showed up again. You offered Felicity this cross-country trip of a lifetime, which means I got to memorize every lyric from "Surfacing"... all 10 songs! This year started off McLachlan-heavy, until the big break-up, and then all of Felicity's hair went away, and so did Sarah. Until you guys broke into the pool. Now maybe it was a coincidence, but guess who started to make a comeback? It was gradual, but constant, and now if you want me to, I can sing any song from "Mirrorball" which really annoys the hell out of me! So if you're ever curious about whether Felicity has the hots for you, just check her boom box.
Ben Covington: That's the dumbest theory I've ever heard.
Sean Blumberg: Well, I buy it.
Meghan: Let me put it this way, Greg knows how to work it. If she spends too much time with him, Sarah's going back on the shelf.

Noel: I gave blood last month, and I had zero contact with anybody, and I have a card. So that means, medically, that I am safe sex material.
Felicity: Wow. Okay, so, uh...
[Takes out her day planner and flips through it]
Felicity: So, uh, when do you want to do this?
Noel: Um, now?
Felicity: I don't want to rush it.
Noel: No, no, okay. Um, how about tonight?
Felicity: [Looking at planner] Uh, lecture.
Noel: Okay, tomorrow.
Felicity: I got lab tomorrow.
Noel: Right. How about Wednesday? I'm wide open Wednesday!
Felicity: I'm working at Dean and Deluca.
Noel: Isn't, uh, isn't there someone who can cover for you?
Felicity: Yeah, yeah, I'm sure I can. Okay.
[Starts writing in the planner]
Felicity: "Noel... sex." Is eight o'clock okay?
Noel: For sex? Eight o'clock? Eight o'clock is good.
Meghan: I think it's premium.
Felicity: What?
Meghan: You having a forbidden affair.
Felicity: I'm not having a forbidden affair.
Meghan: Man, I had you pegged as this uptight, no-fun, like, follow-the-rules kiss-ass bore.
Felicity: Well, actually that's much closer to my personality.
Meghan: You and the R.A! You just went up, like, a notch.
