Lucas: Then I think you shouldn't go out at all. Stay home and shirtless is my suggestion.

Oliver: You're not even here to benefit it- so therefore why does it matter to you?

How can someone who looks so innocent cause so much mischief.

Lucas: ... It never occurred to me to get rid of your shirts so you could go shirtless... nice idea Ollie!

Oliver: Bugger. What have you done with them if you don't mind me asking- I'm looking for one in particular because I need to go out and I can't exactly do that shirtless.

Lucas: Nope. Why would that have anything to do with me? :P

Oliver: Oh, I don't know. It may be because you're the only one I live with, that unless Gabe and Daisy have became very clever and learned how to open drawers I'm not sure who else would have done it.

Oliver: That and you like to both wear my shirts and see me out of them- so.

Lucas: And what was that? If it was you are dating a male you might be a little late to the party.

Oliver: No- it wasn't that I was dating a male, I'm well aware of that. It was that I seem to be lacking shirts in my drawer. Do you have something to do with that, Mr Harper?

marktmcconnell: Bless. If she is anything like Ari she'll be a handful. Good luck with that.

olirose: I'm really not trying to think about those years yet, or the terrible two's. I'm quite happy with the little gurgling machine I have right now. She'll be walking before I know it.

marktmcconnell: She's practically in college.

marktmcconnell: It's alright.

olirose: Oh don't say that, I'm thinking about her teenage years now.

marktmcconnell: Just wait until it's her turn to have a birthday, that is going to be something special.

marktmcconnell: Happy Birthday by the way.

olirose: She's growing up so fast, but yes- her first birthday will be something spectacular.

olirose: Thank you.

marktmcconnell: She's a pretty good birthday present if you ask me.

olirose: She's a pretty great one, you're right. It's nice to have her here today to celebrate with.

benjianderson: Yeah. Mine gets mixed in with preparing for Thanksgiving since it's typically the week before. At least your birthday isn't ON Christmas

olirose: See, I wouldn't have had that problem, given I don't celebrate it. That is true, I don't think I would be too much of a fan of that.

benjianderson: Yep! I didn't realize it was your birthday though so Happy birthday from me too!

olirose: With it being a January birthday, I feel like sometimes it tends to blend into Christmas.

benjianderson: She's definitely saying Happy Birthday.

olirose: You think so? Well it's a nice little message from her this morning.

Mark: Yeah, I am. I graduate at the end of this month actually. I did a lot of my work over summer.

Mark: I honestly never meant to cause all that, it just happened like five times. Hire ugly people and it wouldn't happen.

Oliver: That has to be exciting, and trust me, you get a very good feeling of accomplishment once you've got that diploma.

Oliver: I thought there was going to be a fist fight in the kitchen. We didn't really think that we hired attractive people.

Mark: It really is. I do that a lot. Seb brought me a season pass so I can go in all the time.

Mark: Mhm, I guess. Oh he did. I saved up to buy him a pair of gloves he wanted too, by forcing Ari to give me shifts instead of her just babysitting me at work.

Oliver: You're a big fan of history though, aren't you?

Oliver: Well I can't blame you having to force her, given that you have made the staff cry more than once.

Mark: I love the whale!! I want this wedding. Damn it. I am very good at things like this, I must say.

Mark: Mhm. I can learn things pretty quickly, obviously I am not as good as him and I have to ask for words that I don't know yet but I can pick it up easily.

Oliver: I've heard the best thing to do is to lie on the floor of that room to look up at the whale. I'll be sure to come to you when I need help planning then.

Oliver: That's a good trait to have, to be able to pick things up quickly. But it's nice that you did that for him, I bet he loved it.

Mark: God, that's so cool. I'd love that. You could always do the ceremony in the park as one of the entrances to it is so close to the museum.

Mark: Ah, it's alright. I did the same again for Seb's Christmas present when I learnt french for him.

Oliver: It looks so beautiful, it's where the whale is and the lighting is just- it looks magical. That's.. actually a good idea. Maybe I should keep you around when it comes to planning this wedding, you have a lot of good ideas.

Oliver: You did? That's very sweet, did you manage to learn quite a bit?
