Joey: Lauren, Lauren, Lauren, look. I am so sorry I screwed up the plot twist. I panicked.
Lauren: Didn't they ever have press junkets on Days of Our Lives?
Joey: Yeah, but the producer always forgot to tell me about them. That's good producing.
Lauren: I'm just really disappointed, Joey. I was really counting on you. You're our most experienced actor, and you're the patriarch.
Joey: Hey, hey. We're All Americans here.
