Erica Severson : Maybe she doesn't like you as much as your brain thinks she does. There are so many other girls out there besides Siobhan, you can do way better. Ryder, I've known you since the fourth grade, you're a sweet guy okay.
Ryder Jensen : Yeah, you were that cute girl with the double ponytails.
Erica Severson : Pigtails.
Ryder Jensen : Yeah that's what I said.
Erica Severson : No, no it wasn't
[laughs]
Ryder Jensen : You sat right in front of me and you were always so nice to me. Remember that time I accidentally threw up on you?
Erica Severson : Yes, oh my god, I tried to block that out of my memory. Thanks for bringing it back up.
[laughs]
Ryder Jensen : I'm sorry about that.
Erica Severson : I loved that dress so much, my mom made me throw it away.

Siobhan Alexander : Have you ever had your cards read?
Ryder Jensen : No, what's that?
Siobhan Alexander : Tarot cards. I've been studying them lately, they work. I believe the past is not fixed, the future's not fixed, it's all in the cards.
-
Ryder Jensen : You know what I'd like to do after graduation, is travel to Europe.
Erica Severson : Oh I hear you. Anywhere along the Mediterranean.
Ryder Jensen : I mean my dream would become some painter or writer. You know live in a small Spanish style fishing village or something like that.
Erica Severson : That sounds like a lonely, yet romantic existence. But that would only fuel your tortured soul and inspire you more.
Ryder Jensen : I say that we get Eurail passes. Travel all over Europe together
Erica Severson : Mm-hmm. I like that. We will walk the beaches of Spain and party in the streets of Rome.
-
Ryder Jensen : A quote from Kerouac's novel Big Sur has stuck with me. The story ends on a surprisingly optimistic high note when he writes "something good will come out of all things yet, "and it'll be golden and eternal just like that." I believe this. Nobody knows what the future has in store and that's what's exciting. Years from now, these times will only be tattered memories, so I'm gonna enjoy the present.

Ryder Jensen : I don't care what any of you guys have to say, I'm starting this year off right. I mean I got a car, anything's possible. I'm gonna get Siobhan Alexander. You guys watch.
Jordan Oliver : Alrighty. I like the attitude man.
Greg Randle : Hey man, just remember it's not the size of your boat, it's the motion in the ocean.
Ryder Jensen : Yeah real funny Greg.
Jordan Oliver : He knows man, he's rocking a kayak, don't sweat it.
-
Ryder Jensen : Look Siobhan, I'm getting mixed signals here. I mean the other day at the museum and then we kissed in the park and I thought we were together.
Siobhan Alexander : Sure we kissed, but it felt right for the moment.
-
Ryder Jensen : Remember that time when in the eighth grade, we stayed up all night to get tickets to see The Cure?
Erica Severson : Damn scalpers got the best seats.
Ryder Jensen : It's all rigged.
Erica Severson : It was still a good show though.
Ryder Jensen : The best.
-
Erica Severson : Please Siobhan doesn't care about you. Ryder it's been four years. You've been pining after this girl ever since freshman year, how many times does she have to break your heart before you get the message?
Ryder Jensen : Oh my gosh Erica, why do you hate her so much?
Erica Severson : Well, she's hot, she's a psycho bohemian chick and she brings you heartache.
Ryder Jensen : Yeah well she's had some problems. I mean her dad left when she was young. Her parents use her against each other.
Erica Severson : Chicks with daddy issues, those are the worst. What are you gonna do? Save her?
-
Ryder Jensen : What if this is as good as it gets? These are the best times of our lives.
Greg Randle : Man, if in 20 years I look back and these are the best years of my life, it'd be pretty sad.
-
Ryder Jensen : Where are we going?
Erica Severson : Um, a really cool spot, where I'm gonna kill you.
Ryder Jensen : Carl's Junior?
Erica Severson : Yep.
