"Ama, I'm sorry! When that rascal gets back, I'll make sure to give him a piece of my mind, just to make it up to you."

"Grandpa, please don't. Finnian and I aren't meant to be. His heart is with Ms. Porter, and we're just not right for each other. You should start preparing yourself to welcome Ms. Porter."
