• Lucas : Man, its been like, twenty minutes, do you think they're coming back?

  [Nathan shrugs, then starts laughing] 

  Lucas : What?

  Nathan : Thing, Thing 1, and Thing 3.

  [they both laugh] 

  Lucas : Well, yeah, man, he was the third.

  Nathan : Yeah.

• Karen Roe : [referring to Brooke]  Oh Lucas, look it's her loss. There are a ton of girls out there that would be lucky to have you.

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I'll make sure to tell those girls my mommy said so.

  Karen Roe : I'm serious. You know a customer once told me that the best way to get over someone was to get uder someone else.

  [stops licking envelope after realizing what she just said] 

  Karen Roe : Ohh my God! I just realized what that meant! Uhhhh, ohhh my God. I-I thought it was more philosophical, you know get to know them... not get under them...

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Mom!

  Karen Roe : Uhhhh, scratch that.

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Ida Scott Taylor once wrote: Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering.

• Lucas Scott : Do you ever wonder if the we make the moments in our lives or if the moments in our lives make us?

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I should go.

  Haley James : Lucas, wait.

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : No, I should go. I thought you weren't ready. I didn't mean to - it's just - I thought you were going to wait until you got married, Haley.

  Haley James : What?

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I thought you were going to wait.

  Haley James : We did.

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : What?

  Haley James : We, um -

  [hold up her left hand] 

  Haley James : - we got married last night.

• Lucas : [to Peyton]  Hey. So I saw Nathan in the shower... yeah, no wonder you broke up with him.

• Lucas Scott : [after Brooke saw Rachel naked in the back of Luke's car]  Brooke, this isn't what it looks like. Anyways, I don't get why you're so upset.

  Brooke : You're kidding, right?

  Lucas Scott : You're the one who wanted to be non-exclusive. I'm just doing what you wanted.

  Brooke : What I wanted? I wanted you to fight for me! I wanted you to say that there was no-one else you could ever be with and that you'd rather be alone then without me. I wanted the Lucas Scott from the beach telling the world that he's the one for me!

  Lucas Scott : How was I supposed to know that?

  Brooke : You just are.

  [looks at Luke's car] 

  Brooke : And one more thing...

  [goes up to the car window where Rachael still is in the backseat and punches her] 

  Brooke : Don't ever hit me again.

• Nathan Scott : I heard about what happened Saturday night.

  Lucas Scott : And?

  Nathan Scott : And if all this stuff about Brooke is gonna make you play any worse, you should just take yourself out of the game right now.

  Lucas Scott : Thanks for your concern, but how about you mind your own business?

  Nathan Scott : The game *is* my business, all right? And I don't want you screwing it up over some chick.

  Lucas Scott : Heh. You're one to talk.

  Nathan Scott : Yeah, I am. See, my game's gotten better; your game sucks. Fix it.

  Lucas Scott : Your marriage sucks. Fix it.

  Nathan Scott : I'll tell you what. I'll give you the same brilliant advice that you gave me when Chris kissed Haley.

  [Nathan copies Lucas' voice and signature squint] 

  Nathan Scott : "Just forgive her, man. She loves you."

  [Lucas glares at Nathan] 

  Nathan Scott : Doesn't help much, does it?

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I'm the guy for you, Brooke Davis... you'll see.

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I know that you're hurting now more than ever and I don't want to make that worse but I need to tell you something. I lied to you about my heart condition. I have HCM. I need you. I need you now more than ever.

• Lucas : How close was I to not existing? Dan wanted an abortion, Mom. Why didn't you listen to him?

  Karen Roe : Because I realized... I wanted you in my future.

• Lucas Scott : Remember tonight, for it is the beginning of always. A promise. Like a reward for persisting through life so long alone. A belief in each other and the possibility of love. A decision to ignore, simply rise above the pain of the past. A covenant, which at once binds two souls and yet severs prior ties. A celebration of the chance taken and the challenge that lies ahead. For two will always be stronger than one, like a team braced against the tempest civil world. And love will always be the guiding force in our lives. For tonight is mere formality. Only an announcement to the world of feelings long held. Promises made long ago. In the sacred spaces of our hearts.

• Haley James : The magazine pages are sticky again, little perv. Hey, Lucas! Have you been reading this?

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I don't know, Haley. Is that the "Why do I hang out with these people?" issue, because your on the cover of that, right?

  Haley James : Actually it's the "My best friend is an idiot" issue, and there you are.

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I look like an idiot.

  Haley James : Dude, I saw you in your headgear.

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Don't call me dude. And I thought we promised not to talk about that in public?

• [repeated line] 

  Lucas : It's worth nothing if you can't knock down the shot.

• Lucas : My dad didn't want me, okay? Not just that he didn't want to claim me. He didn't want me to be born. Now I always thought that when I started a family, I'd be older and settled and I'd be...

  Brooke : In love?

  Lucas : Yeah. But so did my mom.

  Brooke : Lucas...

  Lucas : No, look - this whole thing scares the hell outta me, okay? But whatever you decide to do, I'll be there. And if you're not ready, then you're not ready, but if you wanna have this baby - then so do I, and whatever it takes for me to be a good father, I'll be there. Always. I promise you. I won't let you down.

• Brooke : There are 82 letters in here, and they're all addressed to you. I wrote them all this summer. One a day, but I never sent them 'cause I was afraid.

  Lucas Scott : Brooke...

  Brooke : I was afraid of getting my heart broken again, like before. 'Cause you hurt me so bad, and I was afraid to be vulnerable. And I was afraid of you and the way that you make me feel. And I know that doesn't matter now after what I did, but I just thought that you should know. This was how I spent my summer, Luke, wanting you... I'm just too scared to admitt it.

  Lucas Scott : Brooke! I'm sorry! What you did with Chris... it's okay.

  Brooke : It's not. It can't be. It's too much to forgive!

  Lucas Scott : Well, that's too bad because I forgive you.

  Brooke : You can't!

  Lucas Scott : I just did. So you're gonna just have to deal with it. I'm the guy for you Brooke Davis, and I know I hurt you last time we're together, but...

  Brooke : I love you.

  Lucas Scott : I love you too... pretty girl.

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I don't see why you get off by screwing things up!

  Chris Keller : How? By having sex with Haley?

  [Lucas looks shocked] 

  Chris Keller : Because we haven't done that.

• Lucas : [voice-over]  As happens sometimes a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. And then the moment was gone.

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : [to Brooke]  Game on Brooke Davis.

• Haley James : Lucas, Luke I'm scared, Luke this is so not cool! Come out here right now, *Lucas Scott*!

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Boogie Man!

  [Haley punches Lucas in the stomach] 

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Damn it Haley, jees you're gonna kill me. You know Houdini died like that.

  Haley James : Yeah, well you deserve it dumbass! I told you I didn't want to take this shortcut.

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : What are you whispering for?

  Haley James : Because...

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Haley, these people, they're dead.

  Haley James : Yes, but if you keep yelling the freakin' zombie's are gonna hear us!

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Haley!

  Haley James : What?

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I gotta tell you something!

  Haley James : OK, what is her name, and what is it that you did that you regret?

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I'm going to Charleston with Keith.

  Haley James : What are you talking about?

• Lucas : There's something I have to tell you. You should sit.

  Karen Roe : Okay. I think I'll stand.

  Lucas : This is gonna hurt you, Mom. And I'm sorry.

  Karen Roe : What happened?

  Lucas : Brooke's pregnant.

  Karen Roe : [she slaps him]  Oh, my God, Lucas. I'm so sorry.

  Lucas : I guess I deserved that. Stupid...

  [he walks off] 

• Karen Roe : [after finding out Brooke is pregnant, Karen has slapped Lucas]  Lucas! I didn't mean it.

  Lucas : I'm pretty sure you did.

  Karen Roe : No! It's just - do you understand? This is *exactly* what I didn't want for you! I mean, have I been talking to myself for the last few years? You have so much left to do in life! So does Brooke. Oh God, you're both just too young for this.

  Lucas : Don't cry, Mom.

  Karen Roe : It's just that I'm scared for you. I can't believe this is happening.

• Lucas Scott : Kahlil Gibran once wrote: "Your reason and your passion are your rudder and sails of your seafaring soul. If either be broken, you could but toss and drift or else be held at a standstill amid seas. For reason, running alone, is a force confining. And passion, unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction."

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : [Dan asks Lucas to play a basketball game one on one]  No I think I'll pass.

  Dan Scott : That's exactly what i want you to do pass the ball to Nathan tonight.

  Lucas 'Luke' Scott : Mental note, Nathan's Daddy wants me to pass the ball to him.

• Brooke : Okay. Read it. Just skip to the last line. Go ahead.

  Lucas : What's wrong with the last line? "You're mine forever." Sounds pretty damn good to me.

  Brooke : Yeah. Sounds great. Sounded even better when I read it the first time last spring in another letter you wrote. To Peyton!

• Brooke : I lied.

  Lucas : What?

  Brooke : I'm not pregnant.

  Lucas : Wha - But I saw the test.

  Brooke : I know. And when the doctor called, he said I wasn't pregnant. He said that can happen.

  Lucas : Okay, no-no-no-no no. I-I-I was standing right there when he called.

  Brooke : And you had just called me a slut.

  Lucas : So you lied to me to punish me? How could you do that?

  Brooke : How could you cheat on me with my best friend?

  Lucas : Brooke, I never meant to hurt you.

  Brooke : That doesn't really matter, Lucas. 'Cause in the end it all hurts just the same.

• Lucas 'Luke' Scott : I did something tonight, and I can't take it back.
