Julian Baker quotes from One Tree Hill

Julian

Even with all the gorgeous models here tonight, the most beautiful woman here was backstage.

Brooke

Thank you.

Julian

I was talking about Victoria.

Julian

Have you seen Alex's script? I'm working with her today. Ohh. Sorry. Good morning, Brooke Davis, you get sexier and younger every day.

Brooke

Well good morning, babe. You're so sweet.

Julian

So have you seen her script?

Brooke

You certainly do know how to hit the off switch.

Julian

Sorry babe, but you know I'm working with her today.

Brooke

Yeah, I'm not so sure that's a good idea. I don't trust her around men. She's like one of those Herpes from Mythology.

Julian

You mean Harpies?

Brooke

No, actually, I don't. Her underwear should be a welcome mat. I've seen the way she looks at you. Can't you find a better script written by an uglier person?

Julian

Trust me, I'm not interested in the writer, I'm interested in the story.

Brooke

As long as it doesn't become the story you and Alex tell your kids some day when they ask how you met.

Julian

Hey. The only kids I'll be telling stories to will be ours.

Brooke

That's a good answer. Have a good day.

Brooke

Hi. How's the story coming? It better not have a happy ending.

Julian

Nope. No worries there, it's over.

Brooke

What happened?

Julian

Let's just say she's the person you thought she was.

Brooke

Does Brooke Davis have to slap a bitch?

Julian

No, baby. I just won't be working with her anymore. She's all yours.

Brooke

I'm sorry, babe. Are you okay?

Julian

Yeah, it's just I hadn't found a script I liked that much in a long time.Can't believe I was stupid enough to think she'd take it seriously.

Brooke

Well, you'll find a better script.

Julian

Yeah? I guess it's back to renting movies instead of making them. Any suggestions?

Brooke

Something that'll put you in a better mood, or at least in the mood to make out with me.

Julian

Grease 2 it is.

Brooke

Again? You're weird.

Brooke

Hi. This hot body of yours has just inspired me to something that I have never done before.

Julian

Oh yeah?

Brooke

Yeah. And it's going to take a lot of hard work, and it's going to take a long, long time.And I'm going to need you to start by taking your pants off.

Julian

That sounds amazing. But Alex is coming over to work.

Brooke

You two were up half the night!

Julian

It's all business, Brooke. I don't know, she seems to have really come around.

Brooke

I don't buy it. Once a ho-bag, always a ho-bag.

Julian

Now as I recall, you...

Brooke

You might want to consider what you are about to say very carefully. Now come kiss me 'till ho-bag shows up.

Julian

You okay?

Brooke

No. I need to know that you feel the same way that I do. That you can...see yourself doing this with me forever. Because if not, what am I doing? What... what are we doing? What.. who are we?

Julian

Hey. look at me. We're us, Brooke. You're the girl I love with all my heart. And I'm the boy who's gonna be with you forever. We don't have to rush into anything. Forever is a very long time.

Julian

I’m not a guy’s guy. I don’t have homies.

Brooke

I don’t think anyone has had homies since 1989.

Nathan

You knew Jamie needed that…how’d you know about the gate?

Julian

It’s no big deal, I saw it while I was getting fire wood.

Nathan

95% of being a parent is instinct, and you’ve got great ones. You’ll be a great parent when the time comes.

Brooke

How'd you sleep?

Julian

Not good.

Brooke

Good.

Julian

I'm sorry. I thought alex was in trouble, and i reacted.

Brooke

She okay?

Julian

She's fine.

Brooke

Imagine that.

Julian

Brooke, you would have done the same thing if she would have called you.

Brooke

yeah, but she didn't call me. she called her boyfriend i mean, my boyfriend.

Julian

Look, i know we were supposed to have a night together, but we can do that tonight. Or any night, okay? don't get upset.

Brooke

I'm not upset about that.

Julian

Yes, you are.

Brooke

not about that

Julian

Well, what else is there?

Brooke

I thought i was pregnant.

Julian

What?

Brooke

I'm not. so you're good.

Julian

i would have been good if you were. if we were.

Brooke

Don't say that to me.

Julian

You knew last night. I'm such an idiot. come here. I'm sorry.i messed up. Are you sad?

Brooke

A little.

Julian

[hugs her] It's gonna be okay.

Julian

Hi.

Brooke

They're beautiful. :[the flowers]

Julian

So are you. How you doing?

Brooke

Not so good.

Julian

Yeah, I know.

Brooke

I don't think you do.

Julian

No, I suppose I don't. But I want you to know something...I know that I've talked about slowing down and taking our time...but I want you to know that whenever we do get pregnant, that's gonna be a great day. And I'll be more than okay with it.

Brooke

We're not gonna have that day.

Julian

Baby, we will.

Brooke

No, we won't. They didn't just tell me that...that I wasn't pregnant. they said I'm never gonna be. I can't.

Julian

You can't have children? They told you that?

Brooke

I'm sorry.

Julian

Brooke...Hey, shh. baby, it's okay.

Brooke

It's not.

Julian

It is. It's going to be. I love you so much.

Brooke

But I want to have babies with you. I want to have a family.

Julian

Then we'll get a second opinion. And a third, okay? We'll find the best doctors out there.

Brooke

What if ...

Julian

Hey, shh, shh. I love you. That's all that matters. I love you.

Brooke

I love you, too.

Julian

So, I was thinking about taking some time off from, well .. doing nothing; how'd you like to spend some quality time with your boyfriend?

Brooke

I can't.

Julian

Oh, come on!

Brooke

No, really.. I need to go talk to Millicent. I am so pissed at her, so pissed that...

Julian

That you're going to go over and check that she's okay?

Brooke

Yeah.

Julian

Love my girl. Hey. I don't need kids to make me happy. I just need you, Brooke Davis.

Brooke

What did I do to deserve you?

Julian

My mom used to be the most amazing woman. She had this magic inside her. And after a while, she felt unloved or unworthy. I don't know. My dad was always working, and I was just a kid. I was always gone, just doing whatever kids do. No one reminded her how special she was. No one tried to stop her when she took that extra drink or those extra pills. And... Eventually, her fire burned out. And she became the not-so-special person she thought she was all along.

Brooke

Julian, you can't fix your mom by fixing Alex.

Julian

But maybe I can help her before her fire burns out. And if not... then at least I tried.

Julian

Welcome back. It would have been nice to get a call...E-mail, anything.

Brooke

We're taking some time apart.

Julian

And I backed off for six weeks, but...We need to talk now. We need to figure some things out together. If this is about you not being able to have kids, we should be talking about that. We should be talking about a lot of things.

Brooke

Things like Alex? How is she, by the way? Seems to be on the mend.

Julian

You want to talk about Alex? Okay.

Brooke

You told me that you want to save her, like you couldn't save your mom. What am I supposed to do with that?

Julian

Understand.

Brooke

I can't!

Julian

Oh, I see. So since you can't understand me working with Alex, you show up in town with some guy like we're playing a game?

Brooke

I'm not playing a game.

Julian

Really? You show up with a guy named Alexander. "Alex"? Right. No game here.

Brooke

My mother hired Alexander. He is consulting on my men's line! That's it!

Julian

Okay. I believe you. Imagine that. I believe you.

Brooke

Do you think that this has been easy for me?

Julian

How would I know, Brooke? You never talk to me about it!

Brooke

I've tried...you know what? I can't do this. I have a lot of work to do today.

Julian

Right. Of course. Clothes over bros.

Brooke

Julian.

Julian

Hi.

Alex

Hey, here you go.

Brooke

Alex.

Alex

You guys should talk. I'll... go.

Brooke

All day long I've been trying to figure out how to get past the you-and-Alex thing, and here you are...Together. You are always together.

Julian

Brooke, I bumped into her tonight.

Brooke

Of course.

Julian

It's always about Alex! Just stop it, Brooke!

Brooke

I will as soon as you stop acting like it's in my head! It's not!

Julian

Yes, it is!

Brooke

I saw you with her in the hospital, sitting by her bed, holding her hand. That was not in my head!

Julian

She tried to kill herself. I'm her friend.

Brooke

It was more than that. I was there!

Julian

How dare you? I am here in tree hill for you, and it's not good enough. You just keep waiting for the other shoe to drop, waiting for this not to work.

Brooke

I don't want to fight. I just wanted to talk.

Julian

Yet here we are fighting. And I'm getting really tired of fighting. You know, maybe you're right. Maybe I'm the guy who needs to save people. That's my issue. But I'm also the guy who loves you. I'm the guy you pushed away when you found out you couldn't have kids. I'm the guy you can't trust no matter much I tell you to. And that's your issue, Brooke. I'm never gonna be able to make that stop for you.

Brooke

So what are you saying?

Julian

I'm saying...maybe right now, you need to work on you, and I need to work on me. You've got your new line, and...I'm making a movie...with Alex. I should concentrate on that...Goodbye, Brooke.

Brooke

You really think I'm the best.

Julian

Of course you are.

Brooke

So, let me get this straight. I'm better than everybody else on the planet who could possibly do this job?

Julian

That's right.

Brooke

Well, I guess if I am the best and you need the best...Then I have to do it.It wouldn't be fair otherwise...When do I start?

Julian

As soon as I find a director.

Brooke

You don't have a director?...Did you hire anyone for this movie?

Julian

The last guy didn't work out.

Brooke

What a shame. Too bad you don't know anyone who's...always wanted to direct...who knows the movie really well. I'm thinking someone whose name rhymes with "Shmulian"? You know anyone like that?

Julian

I don't think my dad would go for that. You know, I've never directed before.

Brooke

Make him go for it. Tell him you hired the best costume designer on the planet, and she'll only work with you if you direct. Because, ps., that's now the deal...Have your people call my people.

Brooke

Girl behind the brown door. Doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Julian

Hey Brooke how are you doing?

Brooke

Yeah I’m just watching a teamster paint my door a fugly shade of brown.

Julian

Oh this must bring back a lot of memories for you.

Brooke

You could say that…in high school this was Lucas’ bedroom.
