Alex Taggart quotes from E.R.

[about Luka] Why did you invite him?

Alex Taggart

Because he's my friend.

Well, you shouldn't have friends who are over 30.

Alex Taggart

Why not?

Because you're a kid.

Alex Taggart

So? I like him. He's cool.

I know what you're trying to do.

Alex Taggart

Am not.

And I'd rather not be going out with someone right now, okay?

Alex Taggart

You're probably not his type. Besides, he's my friend, not yours.

We're moving.

Alex Taggart

No!

Come on, hurry up!

Alex Taggart

I don't wanna go!

Ah, you don't exactly have a choice.

Alex Taggart

I'm not going!

Yes you are.

Alex Taggart

I like it here.

Yeah? So did I.

Alex Taggart

You're just being a bitch.

What did you call me?

Alex Taggart

I'm sick of moving just because you're screwed up!

You know what I'm sick of, Alex?! I'm sick of pretending that your dad is a good guy! I'm sick of keeping my mouth shut about all the crap that he's done and all the stuff that he hasn't. And I'm sick of him tracking us down every time he loses a job, so he can come here and buy you enough presents to make you think that he's actually a father. Because he's not! He's a user, and a loser, and I am not gonna let him turn you into one too. Now get your ass in that room and start packing!

Luka

[while Luka and Alex are playing video games] You're going down, you little freak.

Alex Taggart

You suck.

Luka

You're worse at this than you are at soccer.

Alex Taggart

Bite me, you Slav bastard.

[as she walks in the door] Alex! What did you just say?

Alex Taggart

What?

What did you say?

Alex Taggart

Nothing.

I heard you. [to Luka] You heard him. What did he say?

Luka

I didn't hear anything. Might have been the game.

Alex Taggart

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you heard the game, Mom.

Yeah, well, I don't wanna hear that kind of talk out of you. [to Luka] Or you.

Alex

Luka!

It's nothing, kiddo. Just a little disagreement.

Luka

[to Alex] What's all that for?

Alex

We're going to Florida. My dad's got a place by the beach where we can watch the whales migrate. Mom said it was OK.

Luka

Alex, go back up!

Alex

No!!!

Luka

Alex, now!

Easy, Hoss. Not your kid!

Luka

Listen. You can take what you want, I don't care, but he's not going anywhere with you.

Alex Taggart

Where's Luka?

He's at work.

Alex Taggart

You still fighting?

No.

Alex Taggart

We're gonna have to move again, aren't we?

You remember when we lived in that trailer?

Alex Taggart

You guys lived in a trailer?

It was a mobile home.

That's uppity for "trailer."

When I was your age, I had two jobs.

Alex Taggart

Yeah, doing what, milking a T-Rex?
