The Summer I Turned Pretty asks us each a very serious question: If we were in Belly Conklin’s shoes, what would we do? The coming-of-age show revolves mostly around Belly’s relationship with brothers Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher, the former who she’s had a crush on her entire life and the latter who has become her best friend. While she entertains a relationship with both brothers, the real question will be answered in the upcoming and final season: Who will Belly ultimately pick?
While there are plenty of arguments for both brothers, I’ll let the dialogue speak for itself. Here are the 10 best quotes for anyone who is Team Conrad:

Belly Conklin (Lola Tung): “If I’d known that you’d done that, that you cared that much about me, about us, if I would’ve known that, I would’ve fought for you.”

Belly: “I would’ve fought for us. I would’ve been there for you through everything.”
Conrad: “I thought you knew! I thought you knew. From the moment we kissed at the beach, I thought you knew.”

“Belly, I don’t think I could ever get over you. Whenever I talk to you, I’m just happy. And I’ve got to say, standing here in front of you now, it’s torture not being able to kiss you.” — Conrad Fisher (Christopher Briney)
