- Zach Braff: The dog's code to fuck a leg is "Who's your bitch? Who's your bitch? Love him up. Love him up."
- Zach Braff: Somebody really did tell me that their buddy was writing a movie about snowboarders.
- Natalie Portman: But wait, aren't you writing a movie about surfers?
- Natalie Portman: How do you feel about the example you're setting for young people without the helmet?
- Zach Braff: Well, I think that my character quickly learns that he needs to wear a helmet.
- Natalie Portman: All my friends, after they saw the movie, they were like, "The main thing that we learned was that Jersey has *really* hot girls!"
- Zach Braff: There are people who really speak Klingon, you know that, Natalie?
- Natalie Portman: Uhm, no; I'm in Star Wars, not Star Trek. I know it's confusing.
- Zach Braff: We had to teach Jean Smart how to smoke a bong. That was really fun, giving Jean Smart bong-smoking lessons.
- Zach Braff: Look at that dog, I mean he's unstoppable.
- Natalie Portman: I like how he goes from one foot to the other.
- Zach Braff: He shakes it up.
- Natalie Portman: Here comes the Jersey accent.
- Zach Braff, Natalie Portman: Bawls!
- Natalie Portman: I wanted Natalie to have like a subtle Jersey accent, but it comes out in words like "balls".
- Zach Braff: Now I hear you don't like this upcoming shot of yourself.
- Natalie Portman: This really embarrasses me.
- Zach Braff: I think it's pretty. Ha ha!
- Natalie Portman: Ha ha! I can never watch this shot at all.
- Zach Braff: Every time we're at a screening and this shot comes on, I get to sit there and watch you cringe.
- Natalie Portman: It's so embarrassing.
- Zach Braff: I think it's adorable.
- Zach Braff: I love this because it's sort of that awkward older brother moments like, " Are you trying to kiss on my sister or what?"
- Natalie Portman: Yeah. I love that I invite you up to my bedroom right away.
- Zach Braff: There's something really sexy about a girl who collects vinyl.
- Natalie Portman: Although you guys totally had to teach me how to put a record on.
- Zach Braff: Ha ha, I know. Natalie's like never put a record on in her life.
- Natalie Portman: I grew up with tapes, bud.
- Zach Braff: I know, I think it's really cute though.
- Natalie Portman: People saw this in the trailer and they were like "Wow, she *really* can't dance." Little do they know.
- Zach Braff: Little do they know you're a break dancer.
- Zach Braff: I don't know if you get to do much of that in the "Star Wars" stuff, just dance really silly.
- Natalie Portman: Just wait for Episode 3.
- Zach Braff: I told my cinematographer for this scene I wanted that really warm, romantic light.
- Natalie Portman: Where you can't help but fall in love.
- Zach Braff: Yeah. Most of those leaves are fake by the way, I should mention.
- Zach Braff: You're so amazing here. I mean when you pulled this out on you're first day, I was like "Holy shit."
- Natalie Portman: My mom always pulls this shit on me.
- Zach Braff: Really? She gets out the old video tapes?
- Natalie Portman: Yeah, for like friends or boyfriends. It's very embarrassing.
- Zach Braff: Can I just say, without making you feel uncomfortable, how beautiful you look in this scene.
- Natalie Portman: Thanks.
- Zach Braff: You look hot. Hot, hot, hot.
- Natalie Portman: It's like 'Wild Things', the Indie version.
- Natalie Portman: And the woman who owned the house was mad because everyone used her bathroom.
- Zach Braff: Yeah, and the toilets were all clogged up and she was like "There's doodie everywhwere!"
- Natalie Portman: And we were like so much more preoccupied with why she was using the word "doodie" instead of helping her.
- Zach Braff: Remember how I couldn't swallow that thing? Oh, that's right, you weren't there.
- Natalie Portman: You're such an asshole.
- Zach Braff: No, I didn't mean it like that.
- Natalie Portman: Rub it in.
- Zach Braff: No, I totally thought you were there, you were there every other day.
- Natalie Portman: My dishwasher wouldn't close yesterday, something was wrong with it, and I was like flipping out. I was like, "Oh, my God something bad's going to happen, something ironic and horrible."
- Zach Braff: You're like "You stupid latch!" It would be a great article though, if you tripped over it.
- Natalie Portman: Make our movie millions.
- Zach Braff: This is really cute here. When you actually have the balls to tell a girl that you like her, you want this kind of reaction to it.
- Natalie Portman: It's awesome when you can write it for yourself, huh? How things pan out. I remember in the script, it said "She's so cute." Like, that was the stage direction. I was like, "Hmmmm."
- Zach Braff: Yeah and you know what, when I look at that shot I think "She's so fuckin' cute."
- Zach Braff: Actually, I take it back, the scene of these two having sex was the very first shot. And I really have to give it up for these two actors; they really just went for it as uncomfortable as it was. I mean, they don't know each other obviously.
- Natalie Portman: Uncomfortable or *AWESOME. Like "Hi, nice to meet you, lets bang!"
- Natalie Portman: Yeah, someone actually just told me that he was nervous to say "titties" in front of me; which I was so excited about. Like he thought I was all sweet and innocent.
- Zach Braff: Little did he know.
- Zach Braff: This is one of two green screen shots in the movie; so Natalie could feel right at home.
- Natalie Portman: This is so mean; if anyone uses these lines on a girl they should go to hell. It's like the meanest thing ever.
- Zach Braff: What?
- Natalie Portman: To be like, "You changed my life. See ya later. You're the best girl. Bye." It's a shitty thing to do.
- Zach Braff: I think it's sweet that they're sort of like sweet innocent lip kisses. You know, it's not like we're...
- Natalie Portman: Tonguing.
- Zach Braff: Yeah, it's not like we're jamming tongues down each other's throats. It's more just like the... innocent lips.
- Natalie Portman: Well, that was only because of the deal we made.
- Zach Braff: What? Oh, the tongue -
- Natalie Portman: The "no tongue" rule.
- Zach Braff: You jammed it in there a couple times, come on.
- Natalie Portman: You liked it.
- Zach Braff: Yeah, I loved it. It distracted me from my direction.
