I’m Mr. Friendly. I’m going to change my name to ‘Friendly’ Bill Spencer.”
(Liam and Wyatt discuss Bill.)
Liam: “Hey, remember when he almost killed me? That was fun.”
Wyatt: “Oh, yeah, but that was an accident, right? I mean, he didn’t blow up the building until he was like 70 percent or 80 percent sure that you had already left.”
(Later on.)
Liam: “I mean, the thing about dad is, he just never learned how to love.”
Wyatt: “Oh, yeah? Did your therapist tell you that?”
DAYS OF OUR LIVES

YOUNG AND RESTLESS
(Mariah departs for her overnight on-location assignment.) Nick: “Hey, break a leg.” Mariah: “I can’t because it’s not in the budget.”

Arturo: “I just had a run-in with Rey.”
Abby: “What does that have to do with the job?”
Arturo: “A new job with Rey lurking, plus all the tension and drama that comes with that .... ”
Abby: “You’re talking to me about tension and drama? I grew up with the Newmans and the Abbotts, okay? A double dose of emotional gymnastics. If I can survive that, you can survive one annoying brother.”
(While working late at Nick’s office, Tessa is spooked, so she grabs a stapler as a weapon.)
Tessa: “You scared the crap outta me. I thought that you were an intruder — I was ready to attack.”
