Amy Nicole Abbott quotes from Everwood

Amy

Maybe if you weren't scowling all the time people wouldn't feel the need to disinvite you places.

Ephram

You're right maybe I should take up football and cow tipping and then I could the most popular boy in the school.

Ephram

Boy, can I clear a hallway or what?

Amy

That's Kayla and Paige. They're allergic to anyone who's not at the top-2 popularity percentile.

Ephram

I'm only 98 percent short.

Amy

My friend Kayla is having a birthday party. Wanna go?

Ephram

Do you need somebody to play Happy Birthday?

Amy

Come on... you'll be my guest.

Ephram

I don't know... me, your friends... lit candles in the same room?

Amy

My dad is going to kill me.

Ephram

I'm sure he'll understand when you tell him why you went.

Amy

That's not the way it works at my house.

Ephram

How does it work?

Amy

He yells, I apologize, there's a sentencing of some sort, and then I plea bargain with my mother until the sentence gets reduced.

Ephram

In my house it's more like, I yell, he yells, we both keep yelling, and eventually someone gets tired.

Amy

Doctor Brown is one of the premier brain surgeons in the United States, patients fly halfway around the world for a consultation and we have him--right here and he wants to help us.

No. No he doesn't. We agreed that Colin should have the surgery and it was Doctor Brown who changed his mind.

Amy

Ephram, what are you doing here?

Ephram

I wanted a Twix.

Amy

You came a long way.

Ephram

Well, there's two in a pack, and I only wanted one. I needed someone to share with.

Amy

I just wanted to touch base with normal for a bit.

Ephram

You definitely called the wrong person then.

Ephram

If he suddenly wakes up tomorrow, are you and I gonna become total strangers?

Amy

Strangers? Ephram, I've shared more with you in the past few months, than I have with anybody in my whole life.

Ephram

Like it or not, you tend to have an effect on my moods.

Amy

I've seen your moods. That's a lot of pressure.

Ephram

[To Amy] It's nothing you do on purpose, but... it's like when you're nice to me, there's nothing I can't do. And when you're mad at me, it's all I can think about, you know? Then you say things like: 'maybe you should move on' and it sticks with me for a little while, you know? You're in my head.

Amy

I got in a fight with Colin, and he ended up in a coma. I bitched at Bright, and his appendix ruptured. I sort of needlessly bit your head off the other day and haven't apologized yet and I don't want you to end up in the hospital before you go. Call me superstitious, but...

Ephram

You have got to be without a doubt the strangest girl I have ever met.

Ephram

You're going to have to stop doing that, you know.

Amy

What?

Ephram

Saying stuff that makes me want to kiss you.

Amy

You too.

Amy

How come you're so smart?

Ephram

I'm not, believe me. If I was, I'd be wearing a warmer jacket right now… and I wouldn't be telling you to go back to your boyfriend.

Amy

What's going on between you and Colin. I mean...why are you being all buddy-buddy with him?

Ephram

I'm not being buddy-buddy with anyone, alright. He approached me.

Amy

He did!. . .I mean, he did? Why?

Ephram

I don't know. Maybe he thinks I'm pretty.

I like hanging out with your brother. He doesn't have a lot of facial hair so I can kiss him for a long time without breaking out.

Amy

Yeah I saw.

Amy

I didn't know you were going on the ski trip.

Bright

Well Gemma's goin'. And I go where the booty goes [Imitates whip cracking]

Amy

Later in my life, when I am in therapy you'll be able to take most of the credit.

Colin

Where do you think Bright and Gemma are?

Amy

Probably groping each other somewhere on a gondola.
