Memories of Omaha

Arriving at airport in Omaha, NE:
Allison Clements:  Craig [Anderson], I feel like you're my dad right now. I'm hungry. Are you going to buy me dinner?


Driving from the car rental parking lot at the airport in Omaha:
Craig Anderson:  Can you make sure it's the other group behind us?
Kate Lindsay:  Yeah, two old men in the front. Two 20 year old girls in the back? Yeah, it's them.


At the "Steak & Lube" diner in Omaha:
Kate:  What's the difference between leaded & unleaded drinks?
Allison:  Caffeine?
Kristan Brooks:  (Pause, & possible eye roll) Alcohol.


Driving around Omaha:
Craig (in driver's seat):  Oh look, you're like my wife!
Brent Walker (in passenger's seat): This is so wrong, how did I end up here? But it seems so right.


Driving across a river in Omaha:
Kate:  Look! It's the Washington Monument of Nebraska!
Allison:  THAT is a bridge.

Road Trip Potty Break

Thamina: "My car will make it all the way to Vegas."

Kate: "I'm not going to make it to Vegas without having to stop to use the bathroom."

Thamina: "You'll have to learn."
