Lily quotes from Grounded for Life

Brad

The stuff that you wanted Dean to say? Was it... you know, like, the way you look when you're happy about something?

Lily

What do you mean?

Brad

When you smile, it's like... it's like your eyes are smiling, too.

Lily

Yeah, that would've been okay.

Brad

Or how... when that storm knocked that nest out of that tree, you went and got a ladder and put it back, even though you're totally afraid of heights.

Lily

[sitting next to Brad] You saw that?

Brad

My dad locks me out a lot. You know, he could've said something about how, you know when you take a sip from the water fountain at school? You always use both your fingers to push your hair behind your ear. [Demonstrates] Like that. Anyone who pays attention knows there's a million nice things they could say about you.

Brad

[shocked] What did you do that for?

Lily

I guess it was too hard not to.

Lily

Well, maybe if you hadn't told your dad, none of this would've happened!

Brad

I didn't mean to, it just slipped out! He was giving me a driving lesson and it wasn't going well.

Lily

Is that when you almost ran over the dog?

Brad

Yeah. And my dad said I was such an idiot and even if I ever did get a girlfriend, I'd probably run over her dog, too, so I... just told him.

Lily

And?

Brad

And then he got all misty on me so I gave him a hug and he took me to Macy's and bought me some pants. My father has never bought me pants before!

Brad

Mom! Lily is not a tramp. She waited all year to sleep with her boyfriend and then at the last minute, she slept with me instead!

Lily

BRAD!!!

Dad can you drive me and Brad to the mall?

Sean

No

Walt

I'll drive you.

Lily

You don't have to work tonight, Grandpa?

Walt

No, these guys just canned my ass.

Lily

(bitterly) Yes.

Sean

No. Not no "yes", Yes "yes"!

Sean

No! Not no "okay", Yes "okay"!

Lily

OKAY!

Lily

I guess I'm not as stupid as you thought I was, huh?

Brad

I guess not. I mean… I never thought you were stupid, I thought you were pretty… I'll just let myself out.

Brad

Wow can you believe this will be the last time we'll be in this hallway?

Lily

We have to come back tomorrow to give back our caps and gowns.

Brad

No no that's outside the cafeteria. This is going to be the last time we'll be here, in this hallway, outside Annex Two.
