Quotes
Scott: Your like a stalker or something.
Shelby: I only stalk the very best
Scott: For the first time in so long, I feel like I can breath.
Peter: Scott, tell me, what's the difference between nature and
human nature?
Scott: I don't know, bugs?
Scott: She's not a skank. She's a woman, and she's my friend. Three
things I can no longer say about you.
Scott: We're not even losers until we cross the finish line. We
sit here and we're nothing. We move, then we are a team. At least we're that.
Scott: I wonder why he didn't leave a note?
Ezra: Yeah really, I'd leave a note.
Scott: You'd leave a book.
Scott: You're not gonna tell, are you?
Shelby: No, I won't tell.
Scott: Thanks.
Shelby: Yeah, well, we'll see what you say when you get my bill.
Scott: I always thought that if anyone ever found out about my stepmom,
about what happened, I thought if I ever told anyone, I'd never be able to look at them again.
Shelby: You can look at me, can't you?
Scott: You're beautiful.
Shelby: There are only two words I ever want to hear from you, "I'm
sorry."
Scott: I don't know why you're....
Shelby: Wrong words.
