Day 17: A pairing you never thought would work, but did.
Kitty Walker McCallister & Robert McCallister (Brothers&Sisters)
I don’t know exactly how to explain why I choose them, it was more a feeling when I saw Robert the first time. First of all their relationship didn’t start in the better way because in the beginning Kitty tried to convince him to help her for Justin and it was a thing that she didn’t have to do. Then, he was a public personality, a Senator of the U.S.A. and even if Kitty was a politic’s journalist I thought that she wasn’t ready to have a mature relationship and after his divorce Robert didn’t need a one night stand. So there were a lot of reasons and bad feelings against this couple but luckily all this things were meaningless because they didn’t only ended up together but they become my second favorite pairing of B&S (Kevin and Scotty will have always the first place in my heart ♥). I’m still hating the writers for that they did to Robert, something that I didn’t see coming and that it broke my heart :(((
Looking back on it, I kind of think it was the best of times. Families, like life, have a way of changing, never staying the same. But they’re your family, this ecclectic, deeply bonded group, so you evolve. You adapt. And now, as I look at my life, and my new extended family, I think of this wonderful quote by George Elliot. ‘It’s never too late to be what you might have been.’

Robert: You’re perfect for this job.
Kitty: I have zero experience in national politics.
Robert: That didn’t stand in the way of our president.
Kitty: Oh, well, I’m not sure that he’s your best example.
Robert: You didn’t spin the story about asking me to keep your brother out of Iraq. You took responsibility. The party needs more honest people like you.
Kitty: Still, it doesn’t make any sense. Why me?
Robert: You know, I’m beginning to think you have either alarmingly low self-esteem or you’re relentlessly fishing for compliments. You can’t possibly be that blind to your own value. Thank you.
Kitty: We’ve talked twice once on-camera for about probably 20 minutes. I don’t even buy shoes without walking around in them longer than that.
Robert: You see these shoes? I bought ‘em on the Internet, sight unseen, never had a problem. I’m a very good judge of quality, Miss Walker, and how things are gonna fit.
Kitty: Did you just compare me to shoes?
Robert: You started it. The point is, you don’t know me well enough to offer me the number two spot on your team. All right. Come up to my place in Santa Barbara. I’ll take a crash course in Kitty Walker.
Kitty: Right, and we’ll start with how I don’t date potential employers, especially those who are going through a divorce.
Robert: Well, I think we just ruled out low self-esteem. You’ll have lunch and a professional conversation. If you consider that a date, then your social life must be pretty lame.
Kitty: It is

Kevin: The one contribution you made to this party is to bring Senator Homophobe!
Kitty: Kevin I really thought you and I were done with this.
Kevin: God you miss the point! OK. OK. It is one thing to go and work for the guy, which I have finally come around to. But to bring him to our house, to my mother’s birthday party?!
Kitty: Pedro’s his chef! It was the nice thing to do. What?! You have no room to talk. What? Sleeping with a closeted actor.
Kevin: Who told you?
Kitty: Tommy did.
Kevin: What?!
Tommy: I never said a word. You’re the one blabbing to the entire family.
Kevin: OK. Whatever, look, where did you hide the wine? I need to get grandma a drink ASAP?
Tommy: It’s in the closet.
Kitty: You put the wine in my closet? Is your little boyfriend in there?
Kevin: He’s not my boyfriend!

Warren: What’s going on?
Nora: What do you mean?
Warren: Well, why isn’t anyone but us talking?
Nora: Oh…Well they all think that I don’t know that my husband had an affair with that women Holly over there; a long one, with a cunning little cottage built for two to go with it. Yes, Warren you see they all think I’m living in the dark and they’re terrified that I’m going to figure it all out tonight. And in their panic and obliviousness and their eagerness to handle me they’ve lost their very basic ability to conduct themselves in a social circumstance. It’s very sad, but there it is…

Sarah: I thought you hated the guy. So why did you sleep with him?
Kitty: I didn’t. The gin slept with him.
Sarah: We had the gin talk five years ago. It’s the…
Both: Devil’s drink!

Kitty: Will you marry me? Oh my God. Oh, no. I didn’t. Did I just… Yes I did.
Robert: I think that you just did. Now, Kitty, I’m not the world’s biggest traditionalist but where the hell’s the ring?
Kitty: I’m sorry.♥amazing
