Annie Garrett : I know why you want Taylor in Denver. But why me?
Bonnie McCloud : [frowns] That's a silly question.
Annie Garrett : I don't think so.
Bonnie McCloud : What's gotten into you?
Annie Garrett : Just answer the question.
Bonnie McCloud : Oh for goodness sake's, Annie, stop being melodramatic.
Annie Garrett : Oh, I have pussy-footed around this for too many years, let's just get it out in the open right now, okay?
Bonnie McCloud : I don't know what you're talking about!
Annie Garrett : Katie's ghost. She permeates that house you call home.
Bonnie McCloud : Why? Because I hang a few pictures of her on the walls?
Annie Garrett : Pictures are great, but you've turned them into shrines, along with her whole bedroom!
Bonnie McCloud : The memory of Katie lives in that room and will as long as I'm alive.
Annie Garrett : You can cite how many ribbons she won and when she won them.
Bonnie McCloud : Of course I can. I was there.
Annie Garrett : How many have I won? Huh? I know you've always blamed me for Katie's death.
Bonnie McCloud : That's a terrible thing to say.
Annie Garrett : It's true. If I had picked up the ice-cream that night, she would still be alive.
Bonnie McCloud : I don't blame you for that.
Annie Garrett : Don't insult me by lying to my face. "She wasn't supposed to be driving, she was supposed to be home". That's what you said to me that night, Mother, and I heard it loud and clear.
Bonnie McCloud : I had just lost a daughter!
Annie Garrett : What, and I didn't lose anything?
Bonnie McCloud : Losing a sister is not the same.
Annie Garrett : Wrong! I lost more than Katie. That night, my mother died too. You emotionally died with her. I am trying to put away the guilt and move on with my life. Go home Mother, bury Katie, and get on with your own life. Taylor and I will be just fine.

Mary Lou O'Brian : Ribbons?
Bonnie McCloud : [nods] The number Annie won before she left Denver.
Mary Lou O'Brian : Have you ever told Annie you know that?
Bonnie McCloud : [shakes head]
Mary Lou O'Brian : You know Bonnie, we've both lost a daughter. But you still have one that's very much alive. You shouldn't be afraid to love her.
Bonnie McCloud : I think ever since Katie died, I've been afraid of everything.
Mary Lou O'Brian : How about I call you from time to time?
