    Enid: Just because.

    Rebecca: Yeah, we've made other plans.

    John Ellis: You really want to fuck up the system? Go to business school. That's what I'm going to do. Get a job in some big corporation and, like, fuck things up from the inside.

    Enid: You know, I'm not even trying...

    Enid: Go die, asshole!

    John Ellis: Get a job.

    Enid: God! Fuck you!

    Rebecca: Can we go now?

    Enid: You know, it's not like I'm some modern punk, dickhead! It's obviously a 1977 original punk rock look, but I guess Johnny Fuckface over there is too stupid to realize it!

    Rebecca: I didn't really get it either.

    Enid: Everyone's too stupid!

  • Rebecca: I remember this hat. This is from your little old lady phase!

  • Rebecca: God, I'm so sick of Seymour.

  • [Enid takes Rebecca to a "party" at Seymour's place, which is really just a gathering of nerdy record collectors]

    Jerome, the Angry Guy - Record Collector: Some records I will pay serious money for, provided they're a sincere V-plus. Other than that, I just prefer to have them on CD.

    Steven, the Asian Guy - Record Collector: But CDs will never have the presence of an original 78.

    Jerome, the Angry Guy - Record Collector: Wrong! A digital transfer adequately mastered will sound identical to the original. Do you have a decent equalizer?

    Steven, the Asian Guy - Record Collector: I have a Klipsch 2B3.

    Jerome, the Angry Guy - Record Collector: [talking with his mouth full] Well, obviously the problem! You expect a 10 band equalizer to impart state-of-the-art sound? Dream a little dream, it's never gonna happen!

  • [first lines]

    Rebecca: The best place to meet a guy is at the supermarket. You don't need to waste a lot of time there, either. You see a guy holding a list, you know he's married. He's in the frozen food section carrying a small basket, he's single. I like to hang out by fruits and vegetables, there's a better chance of getting a guy who's healthy.

  • Heather: Hey Peter, Peter Swersey! We're going to give you a... Jimmy ha ha.

    Rebecca: Do you know what that is?

    Peter Swersey: Yeah.

    Heather: No you don't 'cause I just made it up.

  • [Justin and Rebecca kiss in her bedroom when she notices the MFC written on his thumb]

    Justin Cobb: Nothing.

    Rebecca: It's nothing? Well, then why don't you just tell me? Justin.

    Justin Cobb: Motherfucking cocksucker.

    Rebecca: Why are you acting like this? What's the point of us spending time together if it can't lead to openness?

    Justin Cobb: I'm sorry.

    Rebecca: Maybe you should go.

    Justin Cobb: I'm sorry. Um... Should I call you?

    Rebecca: When you're ready to be open.

  • [Justin listens and smiles at Rebecca giving her debate speech in Mr. Geary's class]

    Rebecca: The ocean contains 97 percent of the Earth's water and generates over 70 percent of the Earth's oxygen, and replenishes our fresh water through the clouds. If our oceans are failing, than so will we.

    [the class claps by banging on the tables softly]

    Mr. Geary: Well done. Justin. Rebuttal. Justin?

    Justin Cobb: Actually, I uh - I agree with Rebecca. I saw this show on Animal Planet about how they were giving depressed male baboons prozac.

    Mr. Geary: Justin. This isn't Agree Club. It's Debate Club. If you had done your research you'd have the confidence to have an opinion. And if you have an opinion that's based on facts gathered from your research, then you are confident to speak. And speaking confidently does what, class? Speaking confidently...

    [the class mumbles]

    Mr. Geary: That's right, wins minds.

    Mr. Geary: [whispers] Justin, if you wanna admire Rebecca, you can do that during recess. If you wanna compete here, you're gonna have to apply yourself. You can have a seat, Rebecca. Sasha, Lewis. Well done, have a seat. I like the Animal Planet, though, Justin. Great channel.

    [the scene cuts to Justin sucking his thumb in the school's bathroom stall]

  • [Justin plays the blindfold game with Rebecca]

    Rebecca: We're not in a relationship, Justin.

    Justin Cobb: Why not?

    Justin Cobb: [Justin takes off the blindfold] Rebecca... I love you.

    Rebecca: God, you always have to make everything so serious. This was just a teenage experiment. That's all.

    Justin Cobb: Experiment?

    Rebecca: [whispers] I needed to educate myself, Justin. So, um... I decided to pick someone like you.

    Justin Cobb: Like me?

    Rebecca: Someone that I'd never get hurt by.

    Justin Cobb: That's just so fucked up.

    Rebecca: Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry. Maybe you should just go. Go, Justin.

  • [Justin sits in the school library when Rebecca sits across from him and draws]

    Rebecca: You like that book?

    Justin Cobb: Oh, yeah. It's, um - It's got great stuff on Greenpeace.

    Rebecca: Yeah, it's a good introduction. Those Greenpeace guys are really brave.

    Justin Cobb: I wish I could do something like that.

    Rebecca: What? Be brave?

    Justin Cobb: Yeah.

    Rebecca: Maybe you already are.

  • [Justin and Rebecca walk along the stream together]

    Justin Cobb: It's hot today.

    Rebecca: Yeah.

    Justin Cobb: I think I'm gonna take my shirt off.

    Rebecca: Yeah? Go ahead.

    Justin Cobb: You should, too.

    Rebecca: What are you trying, Justin?

    Justin Cobb: No, really. I mean, we're so uptight in our clothes. It's just like wearing a bathing suit. At the beach.

    Rebecca: No. My stomach will get sunburned, and my mom will get mad.

    Justin Cobb: Your mom looks at you naked?

    Rebecca: Well, yeah, I mean, don't your parents?

    Justin Cobb: Audrey? Mike? No.

    Rebecca: Why do you call your parents by their first name?

    Justin Cobb: Mike says when I call him Dad, he feels old. And I sound like a child or something. And when I call Audrey, Mom, she seems old to him?

    Rebecca: Oh.

    Justin Cobb: So are you gonna take your shirt off?

    Rebecca: You?

    Justin Cobb: Yeah.

    [Justin and Rebecca turn away from each other and take their shirts off before turning back around to face each other]

  • [subtitled version]

    Rebecca: Mom talks about you all the time.

    Rebecca: Sometimes even nice things.

  • [last lines]

    Matthew: I needed you to know.

    Rebecca: Know what? Know what, Matthew? That I'm not the girl who can break your heart?

  • [first lines]

    Rebecca: It's over. I will always speak to you. And I don't mind if you don't say anything. Just because you went away, it doesn't mean you're not here anymore. Perhaps all I ever needed was this gift.

    [rubbing her belly]

    Rebecca: The one you gave to me at the end

  • Thomas: What are you doing this weekend?

    Rebecca: Same as you.

    Thomas: I can't, I have to go away.

    Thomas: I have to go alone. I'll only be 2 days.

    Rebecca: Where ever you go, I go.

    Thomas: This is somewhere you can't go.

    Rebecca: Then you shouldn't go either.

  • Thomas - 10 years: I keep dying!

    Rebecca: Try again.

  • Rebecca: I have to find a way to finish it.

    Steph: When will it be finished?

    Rebecca: I made a big mess out of our lives. I hope one day you'll be able to forgive me.

    Steph: It would actually be easier if you were dead. Then we could, we could all just be sad together.

  • Rebecca: Old houses are like people. They grumble and moan and cry like they're in pain.

    Alice: And keep you awake at night.

  • Rebecca: You're wrong. The good things I remember about my father - the walks we took, the fairy tales he read to me - they all really happened.

    Ernessa: He read you other fairy tales that you forgot.

    [singing]

    Ernessa: # My mother, she butchered me. My father, he ate me. My sister, little Anne-Marie, she gathered up the bones of me, and tied them in a silken cloth to lay under the juniper. Tweet, tweet, what a pretty bird am I! #

  • Nancy: What does your husband think about this?

    Rebecca: I don't have a husband.

  • Alan: What's your name?

    Rebecca: Rebecca.

    [They kiss]

  • Diana: [after being shot at] That won't hurt me.

    Sophie: [puts gun to her head] This will. There's no you without me.

    Rebecca: Mom, what are you doing?

    Sophie: Saving your lives.

    [pulls the trigger]

  • Rebecca: We're living with a dead woman!

    Sophie: Ghosts don't exist.

    Rebecca: Well, if she's not a ghost then what is she?

  • Rebecca: [about Martin] I'm sleeping with him tonight. You know I'm doing this for him.

    Bret: Just like I'm doing this for you.

  • Rebecca: Rebellion is the only thing that keeps you alive!

    Rebecca: Oh. Well what about people who are just tragically ambitious?

    Adam: They go to LA.

  • Rebecca: Well, at least I have potential. It's a wonderful thing, potential. Because as long as I don't do anything, I'll still have it.

  • [first lines]

    Rebecca: Hey baby. I got away for a little while. Are you happy to see me? You're not staying with me much longer are you? You're going back to the city, huh? You're gonna take me with you...

  • Rebecca: [to the flight attendant, after Jackson pushes Lisa back into the airline bathroom] A man went in there.

    Young Flight Attendant: Everyone shares the same ones. Here, I'll take you to one closer to your seat.

    Rebecca: But a lady's in there, too.

    Young Flight Attendant: OK, one of *those* flights.
