Have him put it on a separate line. At
Christmas, we’ll pact it so full of
lights, we’ll make God wear sunglasses.
(Robin)George i did say he could go. (George)He is not spending the entire summer with some KID in Tahoe. He can hate me! You can hate me! He can try to kill while I’m sleeping. I don’t care! Sam is spending the summer with me. He’s my son. He’s 16, that’s it! Listen to me. I want that thing out of your chin. If you’ve got nipple rings naval rings, those come out too. And there’s no make up at my house. No glue-snuffing. No pills, no grass. You’ve worn out your welcome in this house Sam. This may well be the worst summer of your entire life, but you’ve earned it. Now pick up your bag, get in the truck, now. (Sam) I’ll hate you for the rest of my life. (George) You can’t even begin to imagine how much I hate my father, think of it as a family tradition.
(Sam) Do you ever wished you done it? (George) What, killed my dad? (Sam nods) I loved him too much. (Sam) That’s wierd. (George) Yeah, I guess it is.
-i’ll hate you for the rest of my life.
-you can’t begin to imagine how much i hate my father, think of it as a family tradition.

1) What? Do I still love you? Absolutely. There’s not a doubt in my mind. Through all my anger, my ego, I was always faithful in my love for you. That I ever made you doubt is the great mistake in a life full of mistakes. I can tell you that I love you as many times as you can stand to hear it but it doesn’t set us free, all it does is remind us that love is not enough. It’s not even close
1) You were wrong about that first year. 2) I’ve been wrong a lot in my life.
1)Do you have a black Lexus? 2)..no 1)That’s not your black Lexus sitting in your driveway? 2)…maybe we can just forget about the 6 inches and everything (walks away) 3)(the cop) what the fuck?
1)Hey! Where were you? 2) Floating to Catalina.
1)I’d be more comforable if he slept in the guest bedroom. 2) Well I’d be more comfortable if you hadn’t slept with Josh. George would be more comfortable if he wasn’t dying.
1)So you’re dying, and you told mom today. (walks over and grabs him) FUCK YOU! (punches the wall) FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! You knew you were dying from the start? 2)Well everyone’s dying from the start I just got moved to the head of the line. 1) SO this whole thing, this whole summer with me being here, it was all just to get me to like you?!?! 2) I wasn’t trying to get you to like me. I was trying to get you to love me! 1) Well congratulations because you fucking pulled it off!

Mother: I’d feel more comfortable if Sam slept in the guest room.
Teenaged Daughter: I’d feel more comfortable if you hadn’t slept with Josh!
A thought struck me, I’m happy today. And I was trying to remember when the last time was that I felt like this. (Robin) Do you remember? (George) I remember one time for sure. i was with Sam, saving him from the waves. I could feel his heart pounding against my chest. i remember i kissed his hair, just before it was blue. (Robin) We have it on video you know. It’s when my parents were down for his 6th birthday I remember that. I gotta go. (Sam) You haven’t been happy in 10 years?
Because all we’re really talking about is six inches, right? -Hayden Christensen
build this house with me.
Can I ask you something? Do-do you have to ask me like that? I want you to try something on me. I’m uhh i’m on a lot of morphine, for my back. Can you wait till I say no and sound convinving. (kisses george) Did you feel anything? Uh, maybe a tongue… my mouth is numb. Why did you do that? I saw you kissing my mom once when you were dating, you looked like such a good kisser. What did you expect it to be like? I dunno, more like when I kiss Sam. Yeah, more like that.

Do you drive a black lexis?
Do you drive a black Lexus?
Do you drive a black lexus? … Are you sure we need lawyers I mean were only talking about 6 inches?
Do you think it’s odd that your children never hug you?
Dude, I was in total realm.
EWWW! Yuck! You’re scrubbing down the shower.
George: (sneaking in the back door) I could be anybody
Robin: Then why do you stay you?
George: Sometimes things happen for a reason, you know, something bad to force something good. Sam: So you’re dying (George nods) and you told mom today. (George nods again) (they walk towards each other as if to hug, then Sam grabs George’s shirt in his fists) Sam: Fuck you, ok, fuck you (Sam walks away and puches a wall) FUCK YOU! You knew you were dying from the start? George: We’re all dying from the start, I just got moved to the head of the line. Sam: But you lied to me. George: I would have lied to myself if I thought I’d believe it. Sam: So this whole thing, this whole summer having me here was for your sake you selfish fuck! Having me here trying to get me to like you. George: No sam, I wasn’t trying to get you to like me. I was trying to get you to love me. Sam: Well congradulations, ’cause you fucking pulled it off!

How do you become someone else? Who would you like to be? Someone I’m not. What are you now? I’m nothing. That’s not true. But that’s the thing, I am what I say I am.
How do you become something you’re not? What do you want to become?
What I’m not. What are you now? I’m nothing.
i always thought of myself as a house. i was always what i lived in. it didn’t need to be big, it didn’t even need to be beautiful. it just needed to be mine. i became what i was meant to be, i built myself a house…29 years ago my father crossed a double line, changed my life and the life of a little girl forever with that mistake i just can’t stop thinking about her. with every crash of every wave i hear something now. i never listened before. i’m on the edge of a cliff listening almost finished. if you were a house and this is where you would want to be built on a rock facing the sea listening, listening.
I always thought of myself as a house. I was always what I lived in. It didn’t need to be big. It didn’t even need to be beautiful. It just had to be mine. I became what I was meant to be. I built myself a life. I built myself a house.
I always thought of myself as a hut.
I was always what I lived in.
It didn’t need to be big,
It didn’t even need to be beautiful,
It just needed to be mine.
I became what I was meant to be,
I built myself a life,
I built myself a house.
29 years ago my father crossed a double line.
Changed my life and the life of a little girl forever,
For that mistake.
I just can’t stop thinking about her.
With every crash of every wave,
I hear something now,
I never listened before.
I’m on the edge of a cliff,
Listening!
Almost finished.
If you were a house Sam,
This is where you would want to be built.
On rock facing the sea.
Listening!
Listening!
I became what I was meant to be. I built myself a life.
I don’t see Alissa around. Just please open the door when I knock. Just come on up……. JOSH! What are you doing? I was wondering… if you would like to go for a ride…
I have hated this house from the moment my father put it in my name. 25 years of hating what you live in, hating what you are. This isn’t the end of it, Sam. I’m finally gonna build something of my own, something i can be proud to give you. (Sam) Don’t, I don’t want it. (George) Fine, you can do whatever you want with it. All I want is for you to know that we built a house together. (Sam) We haven’t built shit. You’re just tearing your father down. (George) Try it, it feels good.
I hope this made the pain in the ass that called you happy.
I like how it feels not to feel.
I like the way it feels not to feel
I mean all were talking about is 6 inches, right? Uh I dont think we’ll be needing lawyers… What the fu…. My dad says everything happens for a reason
I put a gun to my father’s head once. Have you ever thought like that? … He was passed out. Just screaming at my mother before. About nothing. Under-cooked meat. I went back to my room… put the barrel close to his ear and chickened out again. Of course it was a BB gun. But it still would have hurt like hell.
I still love you, absolutly. Theres not a doubt in my mind with all my anger and my ego, I was always faithful in my love for you. That I made you doubt it, was the great mistake in a life full of mistakes. The truth doesnt set us free, or i would tell you I love you as many times as you needed to hear it, but all it does is remind us that love isnt enough..
I think you have to have a door between where you cook and where you crap. Even in the bush, tribal people are like that – they have a place for both. Probably, you know, it’s like the law. Probably in the Bible. It’s at least a building code violation. [Pause] I have to take a dump
I thought I was helping you. It would help me if I could kiss you.
I wasn’t trying to get you to like me. I was trying to get you to love me.
I wish you would talk to him, he needs a man. He has a father. A man he respects. He respects nothing.
I won’t ever hit you, Sam. I want you to be happy, you’re not. Not here with me, not home with your mother, not alone, not anywhere! You’re what I was most of my life, Sam. I see it in your eyes, in your sleep, in your answer to everything! You’re barely alive! 2)I’m not even listening. 1) You know the great thing though is that change can be so constant you don’t even feel a difference until there is one. It can be so slow at first that you don’t know that your life is better or worse until it is. Or it can just blow you away, make you something different in an instant. It happened to me. Build this house with me, Sam.
I would be more comfortable if Sam slept in the guest room. Well I would be more comfortable if you hadn’t slept with Josh. George would be more comfortable if he wasnt dying.
I’d rather sell my nuts to a castratee
I’d rather sell my nuts to a castrati.
I’m at the edge of a cliff, watching, listening.
I’m just saying, it beats letting town folk go down on you for the summer. What? I know the deal, Josh is a pimp. Yo, I havent done anything! Chill out man.
I’m not going! Mom, tell him I’m not going. Uh George I did say he could go. He’s my son. He’s 16, he is not spending the summer in Tahoe. Listen to me, now I want that thing out of your chin. You have nipple, navel rings, those come out too. And there’s no makeup in my house. You’ve out-stayed your welcome and this might be the worst summer of your life. I hate you for the rest of my life! Oh, you couldnt even imagine how much I hate my father, think of it as a family tradition!
I’ve always thought of myself as a house. I was always what I lived in. It didn’t need to be big. It didn’t need to be beautiful, it just needed to be mine. I became what I was meant to be. I built myself a life. I built myself a house…with every crash of every wave, I hear something now. I never listened before. I’m on the edge of a cliff, listening. I’m almost finished. If you were a house, Sam, this is where you would want to be built. On rock, facing the sea, listening…listening…
If I asked you to stop would you? I haven’t used in two days. I’m trying.
If I walk out the door right now, who’s going to be here tonight for the follow-through?
Josh you look like you need a hug.. No, thats…. Bill, they got me going. No. Come on. I swear i will shock you so hard your tongue will turn black.
Josh, i think you need a hug -George
No, im good -Josh
*BIG HUG*
My brother’s say it’s the worst smell they’ve ever smelt.
Not if I knew that his love was real. I’d want to spend every second with him. …You’d hate him for the trick.
queer
what did you say?!
dad said it first
Robin: i had a dream about your house. George: finished or unfinished.
Robin: it was perfect. unbelievable.
George: didn’t you have a dream you could lick people well
Sam: Do you own a black Lexus?
Man: No
Sam: That’s not your car right there?
Sam: How do you become something that you’re not?
George: What would you like to be?
Sam: What I’m not.
George: What are you now?
Sam: I’m nothing.
Sam: I like how it feels not to feel.
George: I know the feeling.
Sam: I think there has to be a door between where you cook and where you crap. Even in the bush, tribal people, you know, they have places for both; probably, it’s like a law, maybe in the Bible. It’s at least a code violation.
So this whole thing, me staying here. It was all for you trying to get me to like you. I wasnt trying to get you to like me. I was trying to get you to love me. Well congratulation…. because you fucking pulled it off!
Sometimes what you think you know doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with reality.
Thank you for talking about me behind my back – it’s useful in court.
Thanks for talking about me behind my back, its useful in court. Are you wearing eye makeup? …No. Take it off. Think about it, if i just left right out that door who is gonna be here tonight for the follow through. Have a nice flight.
The great thing though is that change can be so constant that you dont even feel a difference, until there is one. It can be so slow that you don’t know that your life is better or worse, until it is. Or it can just blow you away make you something completely different in an instant. It happened to me.
The truth doesn’t set us free. All that does is remind us that love isn’t enough.
Thinking of jumping? Pushing.
This has got to stop. Does it give you some sort of perverse pleasure to expose your penis in front of my sixteen year old daughter?
Twenty years of hating what you live in. This is the end of it.
Twenty years of hating what you live in… hating what you are! This is an end of it Sam.
Uh, I hate to ask about the window.
We havent built shit. Your just tearing down your father. Try it, it feels good.
What kind of a mother can’t stand her
son?
What you know doesn’t have much to do with reality -Sam
What you think you know doesn’t necessarily have much to do with reality.
What you think you know, has nothing to do with reality.
What’s in my pants is none of your fucking business! What you smoke, what you sniff, what you swallow is all my business. I’ve been using since I was twelve! You people are so unbelieveably stupid you know that?! You didn’t give a shit about anything till now. And I apologize for everything but today. Today I give a shit!
Where’s your dad?
He jumped into the ocean.
why can’t you all just die and leave me alone?!?!?!
why can’t you all just die and leave me alone??
Why would you be there? ….I live there. You live in Cory’s parents cabin in Tahoe? Your spending the summer with me. NO FUCKING WAY!
You are the most beautiful woman I’ve ever known. I don’t mean just physically…even your anger is perfect.
You got anymore weed? You got anymore money?
you know the great thing about it is that change can be so constant that you don’t even feel the difference until there is one. you can be so slow that you don’t know that your life is better or worse until it is, or it can just blow you away make you something different in an instant it happened to me, build this house with me cmon.

You’re what I was most of my life. I see it in your eyes. You’re barely alive.
Your who I was most of my life. I see it in your eyes. I hear it in your answers to everything. Your barely alive.
