Isabel Evans quotes from Roswell

Isabel

[about Alex] Well, he's a complex individual with... a lot of complexities.

Isabel

I know my brother, and I know that if there is one voice he will hear no matter where he is, no matter what he's doing, it's yours. Take my hand, Liz.

Isabel

You know, is it too much to ask that one day a year, I can be like a normal human being with a normal life and have a merry Christmas?!?

Isabel

Max! You idiot! What are you trying to do to our poor, clueless human parents?

Michael

I didn't just wander in. I had a cover story.

Max

And what was your cover story.

Michael

I was selling candy for charity. Peanut cluster?

Max

And they bought it?

Michael

No, they all seemed to be on a diet.

Isabel

Not the candy, Einstein, the story.

Isabel

The way to deal with [Maria] DeLuca is to make her sweat, keep her on her toes. Make her afraid of my shadow, your shadow, her shadow, Michael's shadow. Right, Michael?

Michael

Or we could just kill her. [pause] Kidding.

Maria

Relax. God, you guys act like I've never tailed someone before. [drives in reverse]

Isabel

Subtle. He'll never notice us going backwards.

Isabel

Hey. Something's up with Michael. He's acting weird.

Max

Weirder than usual?

Isabel

Actually I think Maria would find it in her heart to forgive you for exceeding the price limit, though there would be hell to pay if you gave the girl you love an electric toothbrush for Christmas. You're better off getting her no gift at all.

Michael

No. I tried the "no present" idea last year. It didn't work.

Oh, honey. I wish -- I wish I had some kind of special powers or something to make all of this go away for you.

Isabel

Special powers don't help.

Isabel

What if I said I wanted to stay?

Max

When we came out of the pods and we lost Michael, it was just the two of us in the desert and I knew that I wasn't alone, that I had my sister. To me, earth isn't home and whatever's out there isn't home, but you're my home.

Isabel

Alex, I can't really talk to you about guys.

Alex

I'm dead. I'm beyond getting jealous.

Isabel

Michael... I don't want to put my life on hold. This is my one chance to be happy... To love someone and have him love me back without all of this garbage that has made us miserable our whole lives getting in the way. I've put a lot of thought into it, and I don't see any reason why Jesse has to know the truth.

Michael

Well, knowing what I know about alien sex, he's gonna have major questions after the honeymoon.

Isabel

You know, Michael, I, too, was miserable around the holidays until I found my calling.

Michael

Making other people miserable.

Michael

First day of school, third grade. I'm standing by the lunch line arguing with that ass Mr. Trevors. He tells me that the cafeteria won't take my food stamps. I say that they're for food, aren't they? And he looks down on me, and he says with that scraggly mustache and that stupid comb over, he says, I don't take lip from welfare punks. I'm about to kick his balls up into his throat, but then I feel someone watching me. And it feels like a heat lamp turned on in the back on my neck, and I turned around and there you are. You're sitting at a table all by yourself. You're just staring right at me. So I walk over and I sit down. You're still staring at me with those big eyes. And you push your tray of food over to me, and you said that you can have my lunch. Right then, I knew you were different. You know, you were different like I was different like people liked you and wanted you around [trying not to cry], I want you around. I want you around, so please don't go. [he cries and lays his head down on her chest. He squeezes her hand, and we see Michael's hand turn white and the white travels to Isabel's hand and up her arm. She puts her hand on his back. Michael lifts up his head and looks at Isabel.]

Isabel

You still owe me for that lunch.
