Elizabeth Masterson: You had no idea she was naked on your bed?

David Abbott: Darryl!

Darryl: Dude!

David Abbott: Yeah.

Darryl: Whoa, whoa, whoa, the spirit's with you, isn't it? You can't bring that thing in here, what're you thinking, bro?

David Abbott: Listen, man, you were right about her. She's alive.

Darryl: Righteous.

David Abbott: But she's in a coma and her family is gonna take her off of life support.

Darryl: Not so righteous. So, what, are you guys socializing now?

David Abbott: We've acclimated.

Darryl: Yeah, I can tell. In fact, I'm sensing some intense feelings she has for you, bro.

David Abbott: Really?

Elizabeth Masterson: No I don't!

Darryl: Ooh, MAJOR red aura, SOMEBODY's embarrassed.

Elizabeth Masterson: Oh my, this is more serious than I thought

David Abbott: Go away, you don't exist!

Elizabeth Masterson: I'm going to ask you a series of questions and I want you to answer honestly. Has your recent alcohol intake increased?

David Abbott: Yeah. So?

Elizabeth Masterson: So are you hearing voices or seeing things that aren't quite real?

David Abbott: As a matter of fact, yeah

Elizabeth Masterson: Well then, have you recently sought consult from a mental health care professional?

David Abbott: What? How did you know that? Stay away from me!

Elizabeth Masterson: Do you often feel paranoid, like people are out to get you?

David Abbott: Why are you asking so many questions?

Elizabeth Masterson: I'll take that as a yes. Listen to me. You have fantasised, quite convincingly that you have rented an apartment that in fact belongs to somebody else.

Elizabeth Masterson: [Extra dialogue] I think you may need to come to terms with the fact that you may be mentally ill.

Elizabeth Masterson: Really?

Elizabeth Masterson: I think I know what my unfinished business is.

David Abbott: What?

Elizabeth Masterson: You.

Darryl: You've got to let her go man

David Abbott: How can I when she won't leave?

Darryl: Not your spirit girl...

Elizabeth Masterson: We have an address, a dry cleaning ticket and a book of matches. Do you know what that means?

David Abbott: We could start a very small fire?

Elizabeth Masterson: Why is she wearing workout clothes? I mean, if you were gonna work out in the middle of the day, which is basically the only reason to be wearing workout clothes, do you really need a push up bra? The whole point is to strap 'em down, not push 'em up.

David Abbott: You know what? You're NOT coming with me any more!

Elizabeth Masterson: Why? Something might jog my memory.

David Abbott: Too bad. You're like an AM radio that someone SHOVED in my head and I can't turn off.

Elizabeth Masterson: You don't think she was completely unclassy and predatory?

David Abbott: Those happen to be two of men's favorite things.

Elizabeth Masterson: Why don't you just date a pit bull?

David Abbott: Maybe I will.

David Abbott: Your sister really wouldn't sign those papers, would she?

Elizabeth Masterson: I don't know. I hope not. It won't even matter if I don't wake up soon. My brain activity's decreasing every day.

David Abbott: Well maybe that's not such a bad thing, you're kind of a smarty-pants. No, it'll bring you down to my level.

David Abbott: Have you have any traumatic experiences recently?

Elizabeth Masterson: Like what?

David Abbott: Oh, I don't know. Like DYING?

David Abbott: I have a dinner date.

Katrina: Well, I got dessert.

Elizabeth Masterson: I just threw up in my mouth.

David Abbott: Ok, I'm sorry, maybe you're not dead - maybe you're just really light

Elizabeth Masterson: But I'm in a coma David, that's not good.

David Abbott: It's way better than dead!

David Abbott: I don't think your sister's a very spiritual person.

Elizabeth Masterson: She's just trying to be a good parent and keep her kids away from a crazy man.

David Abbott: We were romantic

Fran: What do you mean?

David Abbott: You know, like boyfriend and girlfriend.

Fran: Yes, I know what romantic means...

David Abbott: Get out of my house!

Elizabeth Masterson: You get out!

[She tries to shove him, but passes through him and falls through the wall]

David Abbott: Rest in peace!

[He turns around to see her standing there]

Elizabeth Masterson: I'm not leaving!

Elizabeth Masterson: Why do I know you?

David Abbott: Maybe from your dreams

[flashback]

Elizabeth Masterson: It wasn't a dream

David Abbott: No

[They kiss]

Elizabeth Masterson: [looking through a door at Katrina who is naked off-screen] Ooh! She's got a tattoo on her ass. It says "all aboard".

David Abbott: Really?

Elizabeth Masterson: In three languages!

David Abbott: Ugh! Why are you still here?

Elizabeth Masterson: That's a scary question, I have no idea.

Grace: [while visiting an Asian arranged apartment] This place is heaven! It has been photographed for magazines.

David Abbott: I think I told you I need something furnished.

Grace: Oh, it is furnished.

David Abbott: Where's the couch?

David Abbott: [Elizabeth's ghost is disappearing, she is about to die] Help her! Somebody Help her! Elizabeth!

David Abbott: I... I can't stab a man!

David Abbott: You're dead!

Elizabeth Masterson: Stop saying that!

David Abbott: I've told her to walk to the light, but she won't listen

Elizabeth Masterson: There is no light! Aaaarrrggg! You're infuriating!

David Abbott: [after Elizabeth falls out the window] Rest in peace

David Abbott: You saved lives.

Elizabeth Masterson: Yeah... including my own. I saved my life, for later. I just... I never thought there wouldn't be a later.

Simon Robinson: Well, I enjoy trouble.

David Abbott: Yes. I think you do.
