Quotes 

  • Chidi Anagonye : Uh, listen. Maybe on paper, you and Janet don't make total sense, but who cares? The relationship you have built together is wonderful. She knows you and loves you, and that's all that matters.

    Jason Mendoza : Do you really believe that?

    Chidi Anagonye : Of course I do.

    Jason Mendoza : [laughs]  Sucker!

    Chidi Anagonye : Sorry?

    Jason Mendoza : I got you so bad. Dude, pretend what you just said was what you said to you instead of to me. And you have to listen to yourself, because it was already in your own head and then came out. But just put it back in your head, and realize that it was you talking about you and Eleanor.

    Chidi Anagonye : Against all odds, I know what you mean, and I-I got to give it up. That was... that was good.

    Jason Mendoza : Yeah, it was. Chess mate.

  • Chidi Anagonye : But also, while Michael is trying to get the Architects trained, we're supposed to find the first 1000 humans to take the test, people who will just sail right through it so we can build confidence in the system. So what are the criteria? Should it be people with the highest point totals or overcame the greatest hardships?

    Jason Mendoza : I think we should just start with the gimmes - the very best people who ever lived. So Evel Knievel, Kool-Aid Man, Mini-Me, DJ Jazzy Jeff, a genie so we can wish for infinity people...

    Chidi Anagonye : Jason...

    Jason Mendoza : Sure, throw me in there, too. Also Fat Bastard, the World's Most Interesting Man, Pikachu, Karate Kid, Wendy from Wendy's, Grumpy Cat, and the GPS lady that tells you where to drive.

    [sighs] 

    Jason Mendoza : Feels like a good stopping point. Let's call it a day, come back fresh tomorrow. Great job, everyone.

  • Jason Mendoza : What's going on, dog? I know you're upset. You have a tell.

    Chidi Anagonye : I do?

    Jason Mendoza : Yeah, you telled Eleanor before that you were upset, and I think you still are.

  • Eleanor Shellstrop : I can't risk it. What if we spend half of eternity together and then you find out something that does change the way you feel about me and then you resent me for wasting half your eternity? No, it's better we just rip the Band-Aid off, and you read about all the bad stuff now when we're hot and heavy.

    Chidi Anagonye : Okay. I'll read your file. Can I finish reading about Oskar Schindler first?

    Eleanor Shellstrop : THAT'S who I got to follow? The list guy? You and I are so screwed, dude.

  • Eleanor Shellstrop : I can't argue with you on that one, but I love you. There is no one else I want to be with, at least not forever. I mean, if Frida Kahlo wants to make out with me in Heaven, then you and I are gonna have a conversation, but if you read my file and you're good, then we're good, unless there's something in your file that would freak me out, like you kept out a library book past the due date.

    Chidi Anagonye : I moved, and it got buried in the bottom of a box. I put the library in my will to make up for it.

    Eleanor Shellstrop : No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Relax.

  • Chidi Anagonye : Looking at Eleanor's life made me realize how different we are. If the system works and we both pass our tests, I don't see any version of eternity where she doesn't get bored of me. I mean, my fake heaven was a 600-square-foot apartment that was essentially a bookcase and a toilet, and I loved it.

    Jason Mendoza : So what? It's cool that you guys are so different. Sometimes two people who have nothing in common get together, and it rules. Opposites attract.

    Chidi Anagonye : Well, you need that to be true because you're dating Janet. Ultimate opposites.

    Jason Mendoza : So, what, are you saying Janet might get bored of me?

    Chidi Anagonye : No, that's not--I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean...

    Jason Mendoza : Man...

    [He wanders away in a stupor] 

    Chidi Anagonye : Oh, no. No, Jason, come back.

    [sigh] 

    Chidi Anagonye : I wish I were back in my toilet library.

  • Eleanor Shellstrop : [after Chidi read Eleanor's file]  Oh, no. I knew it. You hate me now. What did it? The time I was subpoenaed by the Make-A-Wish Foundation?

    Chidi Anagonye : No.

    Eleanor Shellstrop : Oh, I know what it was. In my defense, I didn't realize he was my boyfriend's twin until halfway into hooking up with him, and at that point, you know, it's a sunk cost.

  • Chidi Anagonye : I don't need to read your file. I know you, and I love you. And I can't wait to spend eternity with you. I mean, obviously, we have a lot of work to do here, and then we both have to pass the test, but eventually we're gonna be together forever...

    Eleanor Shellstrop : You have to read my file right now!

    Chidi Anagonye : What? I'm confused. Is this a game?

    [He leans in] 

    Chidi Anagonye : Is it a sex game somehow?

  • Eleanor Shellstrop : We're in love, and everything's great, and if we want to keep it that way, you have to promise to never, ever, ever read my file.

    Chidi Anagonye : Okay. If you don't want me to, then of course I won't, but nothing in there could ever change how I feel about you.

    Eleanor Shellstrop : Eh, you say that now, but you don't know what I did on Halloween 2013.

    Chidi Anagonye : What did you do on Halloween 2013?

    Eleanor Shellstrop : Oh, I don't remember, but it must've been bad, because the next morning, I woke up in a large Rubbermaid container in some family's basement, and I had barfed all over their old photo albums.

    [Chidi cringes] 

    Eleanor Shellstrop : Yeah, see, that's the look we're trying to avoid here, bud.
