- Barry: They're uh, different races. I'm guessing that's what Kathy meant.

- Barry: My mom's from Kansas, and my dad's from Kenya. I've only met him once though. I grew up in Jakarta and Honolulu, and spent a little time in California, then well, I ended up here.

- James Boggs: You know what that makes you young brother?
- Barry: No sir, I don't. I uh really really don't.
- James Boggs: It makes you American. And you don't ever have to choose.
