TV show quotes
I have a daughter. Her name is Lily. And someday when she's old enough, she's going to ask me where her daddy is. Who he was and how he died. And on that day, I'm going to look into her beautiful eyes, eyes that don't know of malice and jealousy, and evil, and I'm gonna say, your father loved his younger brother very much, and that brother took him from you for your entire life. (Dan starts to cry) Made sure you would never know your father.
Karen.. (Karen spits on the glass)
My dad's in prison and so am I.
Yeah, well you can walk out.
Guys. Absolutely not! There is no way she gets on the cover of my magazine unless she gains 10 pounds, minimum. She looks unhealthy.
We were just brainstorming.
Brainstorm better. Anorexia is a disease. It is not a fashion statement.
I hate to be the one to break it to you, but rock & roll can't actually save the world.
See, I disagree. Walk into any club on the strip tonight, and just look at the kids. Look into their eyes. I mean they're all looking for something to believe in, and I think that music can be the thing to change the world.
I believe in our lives we were all meant to do something. It does not matter when your success comes, success can come whenever you want it to.
[on the phone] Hi, it's Peyton. Yeah, I'm sorry. I know it's late there, I just... what happened to us? You know? I don't know who I am anymore. Or how I got here. I miss who I used to be. I wanna have a home again, ya know? And real friends. You know, the kind of friendships we used to believe in. I miss that. And I miss you. I guess I just miss all of it. Does any of that make any sense?
Yeah, it makes all the sense in the world, Peyton. Four years ago, it all seemed so clear, didn't it? Conquer the world, save the world, live happily ever after.
Are you happy, Brooke?
Sometimes. Not always. Are you?
No.
Okay, then let me ask you something. What is gonna make you happy, Peyton? Is it how you look? Or the car you drive or the people you know? Is it money or celebrity or power or accomplishments? Because I have all those things and I don't think it's enough.
Well then, what is?
Love, I think. And that love can be for a boy or a girl or a place or a way of life or even for a family. But where you find it is up to you. So where are you gonna find that love, Peyton?
I think I need to go home.
Yeah. I was hoping you'd say that.
(voiceover): My name is Lucas Scott. Four years ago I graduated high school with my friends. Brooke Davis moved to New York City and found success. Peyton Sawyer went to Los Angeles, success didn’t come so easily. I wrote a novel and fell for my editor, Lindsey. My brother Nathan saw his dreams vanish, leaving his wife Haley and their son Jaime more fragile than ever. Things have changed in four years, but in many ways this is just the beginning.
I was there Luke. At your book signing in LA. I was there Lucas. I was so proud of you, but we hadn't talked in a long time, and I saw you with Lindsey and I figured you guys were together. Which clearly you are. I like her. I do, but do you remember when you first joined the Ravens and you took all my sketches to Thud without even asking? And do you remember what you said that night when you first entered the gym?
Your art matters. It's what got me here.
Yeah, it's like you touched my soul. And a few days ago I was ready to quit again but you saved me with the words you wrote about me in your novel. So if you're struggling writing the next one you should know that your art matters Lucas. It's what got me here.
The rest of your life is a long time and whether you know it or not it's being shaped right now. You can choose to blame your circumstances on fate or bad luck or bad choices or you can fight back. Things aren't always going to be fair in the real world, that's just the way it is but for the most part you get what you give. Let me ask you all a question. What's worse: not getting everything you wished for or getting it but finding out it's not enough? The rest of your life is being shaped right now with the dreams you chase, the choices you make and the person you decide to be. The rest of your life is a long time and the rest of your life starts right now
Well.
Well. Oh don't look away, second and third greatest nights in your life just walked back into your world.
You looking all rock star totally does it for me.
It's very heroin chic Nate, I like it.
What are you guys doing here?
Well, Lucas tells me you can walk but you need a little incentive so we have come up with a drill.
For every step you take we kiss.
[throws beer bottles] Are you going to say anything or are you just gonna sit there like you have for the past four months? You gonna get drunk, maybe pout, a little cry?
You don't get it, do you? I used to be somebody, Haley, do you understand that? Do you understand what that means? I used to be Nathan Scott, and I was great and I should have walked away okay I know that and I didn't do it, and now I'm nothing. And I have nothing.
You have nothing? You have a beautiful son who is here. I am here! You've gotta figure out who you're gonna be in this, Nathan. Because this version of you does not work for us. I can not keep living like this, okay? Do you understand what I'm saying? One more night like this, Nathan, and I promise, you will have nothing!
What is this?
It's the beginning.
Of what?
Of the way it's going to be from now on. I know it's going to take a lot more than dinner, but I figure it's a start right?
I missed you.
Brooke, this place looks great. Think, if I can't sign any bands soon, maybe I can get a job here?
I'm sorry, darling, you're not nearly bitchy enough to work in one of my stores.
I think I'm realizing that I can't help everybody, and still somehow feel responsible. I don't know why I keep trying.
Lucas tell you he wrote all night?
No, I thought he's been blocked.
Guess he got inspired.
Oh, that's good. Isn't it?
Yeah.Yeah, as editor I'm thrilled obviously but as his girlfriend I can't help but notice the timing.
Oh, you're talking about Peyton coming back?
