Quotes

Tori : Paulie, listen to me, okay, because I'm going to say this once and never, ever again. I will never love anyone the way that I love you. Never. You know that, and I know that, and I will die knowing that, okay? But it just can never... it just can never, ever, forever be. Do you understand? It just can never, ever, forever be.
-
Tori : Hey! Look, I know it's weird at first. But now, this is much more home to me than home. Like the lost boys in Peter Pan, right? Except we are the lost girls, right? Lost and delirious.
-
Tori : I mean I love Paulie, you know that I do. She's my best friend in the world and probably the only person that I will ever love like, like in the way that... Cleopatra
[crying]
Tori : . And to hurt her, its like I'm choking, like I'm not in the breathing world. But there's this life that I am supposed to live, this dream that my mother and father had for me and even though it is killing me Mary, I can't ever be with Paulie ever, not ever, ever again.

[Mouse and Tori are sleeping. Paulie comes over to Tori's bed, lifts up the cover, the climbs into the bed, getting on top of Tori]
Paulie : I bet he doesn't know how to do what I can do for you.
[Paulie starts to kiss Tori on her chin... Tori tries to push Paulie off]
Tori : Paulie...
[Paulie starts kissing and touching her. Tori moans...]
Tori : Paulie!
[Tori pushes Paulie off of her, and then sits up]
Tori : Paulie, there'll be no more of this, okay?
[Mouse is awake, and she looks over to Tori's bed and listens]
Tori : I love Jake!
[Paulie doesn't say anything, just sits beside Tori on the bed. Tori gets out of bed and stands on the floor with her back to Paulie. Paulie kneels on the bed and leans forward. Tori turns to Paulie, then kneels down to face her. She puts one hand on Paulie's face]
Tori : Paulie, listen to me, okay? Because I'm only gonna say this once and never, ever again. I will never love anybody the way I love you. Never. You know that, and I know that, and I will die knowing that, ok? But it just can never, it just can never, ever, forever be. Do you understand?
[pause]
Tori : It just can never, ever, forever be.
[She kisses Paulie, then gets up, but Paulie still holds on to her hand. Tori pulls it away. Paulie leans over on the bed, face down, and starts to cry]

[Everybody on the field looks up and sees Paulie on the roof of the builing with the falcon perched on her arm]
Mouse : [Quietly, in tears] Paulie... Paulie... please!
Paulie : [recites] 'I will make me a willow cabin at your gate, and call upon my soul within the house... '
[Tori's eyes widen as she shakes uncontrollably]
Paulie : [quietly] I rush into the secret house...
[Paulie stretches both of her arms out sideways]
Tori : PAULIE!
[Paulie leans forward and then falls off the roof. The falcon flies away]

Tori : I could totally give my life for blueberry pancakes.

Cordelia : [Tori ignores Paulie's beckoning to her and Mouse and sits with Cordelia and Kara, and Mouse continues to Paulie's table]
[to Tori]
Cordelia : So... how are you?
Tori : First of all, whatever they're saying is trash talk. Stupid. I know you guys won't listen to it.
Cordelia : Of course not. God, I mean, even if it was true, I'd still be like, "So? Grow up."
Tori : But it's not true.
Cordelia : I mean, like, my aunt is gay. Like, get over it.
Tori : Yeah, but I'm not. Totally. So...
Cordelia : No, I know.
Mouse : [She and Paulie have overheard the conversation] She's upset. Give her time.
Paulie : Bedford, this is a dark day.

Paulie : Hey, new girl, what do you think of Vaughnie?
Tori : [giggling] Don't call her "new girl," it's so rude!
Mouse : Miss Vaughn? She's nice.
[Paulie chuckles]
Tori : Some of the girls say rude things about her.
Paulie : She and Bannet, they got it goin' on for sure.
Tori : Paulie, give it a rest. She's just a single lady, and they're very good friends, and that's it. Don't be so mean... or homophobic.
Mouse : She seemed nice to me.
[Paulie and Tori stare at her]
Mouse : I mean, um, normal. Well, not...
Paulie : I'm not sayin' she's not nice new girl, I'm sayin' shes a LES-BO! And she got the hots for Tori here.
[Tori scoffs]
Paulie : Who can blame her, eh?
[squeezes Tori's face playfully]
Paulie : Beautiful.

Allison Moller : [chanting, in unison with a pack of friends that came rushing in] It's morning time, you lazy sluts! Out of bed, or we kick your butts!
Tori : [sleepily] Ally, get out of my face...! I mean it.
[as Mary sits upright:]
Tori : Mary B., this is my sister, Ally. She's a moron. And she has warts, like, all over her toes.
Allison Moller : Gmph!
[shakes her head]
Allison Moller : No!
[giggles along with Mary]
Tori : Get your gross toes out of my bed!
Allison Moller : Don't listen to her, Mary. My toes are perfect.
-
Eleanor Bannet : What do you think you're doing?
Paulie : I'm teaching, Miss Bannet, what you should've been doin'.
Tori : [whispers] Paulie, don't.
Eleanor Bannet : Out of my classroom! You will go to Miss Vaughn's, and explain why you are not in my class, and suffer the consequences.
[Paulie doesn't move]
Eleanor Bannet : Do you hear me? Am I not clear?
Paulie : [smirks] You have a nice day now, Eleanor.
[winks seductively and saunters out]

[while Tori is dancing with her father, Paulie appears at the party dressed in a men's suit. As she is walking in, everyone is looking at her. She walks over to where Tori and her father are, and just stands there staring at Tori. A few seconds later, Bruce looks over at Paulie. Then Tori looks over too. Paulie steps in closer to them]
Paulie : Good evening, Victoria. Hello Bruce!
Bruce Moller : Good evening.
Paulie : Bruce, I wonder if I might cut in?
Bruce Moller : This is a joke, right?
Paulie : Joke? I'm asking you... nicely... can I dance with your daughter please?
Bruce Moller : I'm afraid I don't think that's appropriate, and I don't think Victoria does either, so...
[She cuts in anyway, and shoves Bruce out of the way. They are dancing together now. And by now, mostly everyone at the party is watching]
Tori : Are you crazy?
Paulie : What? You don't like dancing? You used to love to dance with me on the roof, remember?
Tori : Paulie... please...
Paulie : What?
Tori : Don't make this difficult!
Paulie : You love me Tori!
Tori : Like a friend!
Paulie : As a lover. Say it! I'm in love with you Paulie!
[yells]
Paulie : You say it or I'll stop this dance right now!
[Everyone looks over at them]
Tori : Paulie please... please...
Paulie : Then say it! Say it!
[Tori looks at her father then looks back at Paulie]
Tori : No! You tell anyone whatever you want.
[Tori walks away and her father follows behind her, leaving Paulie standing alone in the middle of the dance floor. Paulie starts to cry and Ms. Vaughn comes up behind her]
Fay Vaughn : Paulie! Paulie!
[tries to grab Paulie]
Fay Vaughn : Come here... Paulie...
[Paulie grabs her, spins around with her, and then runs from the party. Ms. Bannet walks over to Ms. Vaughn]
Eleanor Bannet : Faye!
[Paulie runs out onto the grass, screaming]

Tori : [showing the new girl around school, helpIng with carrying her luggage:] So, this is the bathroom and the showers. What's your name again?
Mouse : Oh, most people call me Mouse.
Tori : Mouse?
Mouse : My Dad always called me that.
Tori : Really? How come?
[no answer]
Tori : My Dad used to call me Princess. It made me barf.
Mouse : Better than Mouse.
-
Tori : I mean, how could I ever say to her what I mean? Even in a letter. I'm, like, "Dear Mommy, I hate you. For multiple reasons. The most recent one being that you went on and on about my teeth at Easter in front of all of your gross friends. You want me to be, like... your perfect junior league girl and grow up to do, like, charity balls, and be the concubine of some banker, like you. But the truth of it is... I'm, like, addicted to you. Like chocolate. I'm like.. I just always wanna be around you. I'm like a stupid little puppy, and you just keep kicking my teeth in with your words. No, your tone...! Sometimes... I don't know. Sometimes I wish you were dead."
Paulie : [smiles] Rage more, Victoria!
