Quotes 

• Clay Jensen : [to Hannah as he is scraping gum off seats at the movie theater]  I saved you a particularly gnarly piece with some hair in it.

  Hannah Baker : Here I thought I was a flowers and chocolates kind of girl.

• Skye Miller : Didn't realize you were such a stoner, Clay.

  Clay Jensen : I didn't realize you cared.

  Skye Miller : Excuse me. Of course I don't.

  Clay Jensen : Did you tell Zach I keyed his car?

  Skye Miller : Seriously? You think I'm the type that would rat anyone out about anything?

  Clay Jensen : I don't know what kind of person anyone is anymore.

  Skye Miller : Yeah? What kind of person are you?

• Clay Jensen : I lied. Um, I did know Hannah Baker. We worked together all the time at the Crestmont, we had classes together. Uh, she was my friend and I miss her really fucking bad.

  Lainie Jensen : Oh, honey.

  Clay Jensen : I didn't know how empty it would feel. There's this big part of the world that's just just gone, and everyone else just keeps moving forward.

  Lainie Jensen : Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry.

  Clay Jensen : The worst part is, there's there's nothing I can do. I can't save her, I can't... I can't bring her back. I'm... I'm completely fucking useless.

  Lainie Jensen : No, you're not useless.

  Clay Jensen : You don't know, you don't know.

  Lainie Jensen : I know that you're a good person with a big heart. I know Hannah was very lucky to have you as a friend.

  Clay Jensen : She wasn't, though. She wasn't.

• Clay Jensen : [When Clay arrives at Justin's house]  He can't be prosecuted, okay?

  Justin Foley : What are you doing here?

  Clay Jensen : I know it was Bryce.

  Justin Foley : All right? Jesus.

  Clay Jensen : She said he was your friend.

  Justin Foley : All right, get in here.

  [lets Clay inside his house] 

  Clay Jensen : You have to tell her.

  Justin Foley : When the fuck will you give up?

  Clay Jensen : I get it. Trying to protect your friend, you lied to Jessica and told her Hannah made it up.

  Justin Foley : I did? I guess it's my word against Hannah's.

  Clay Jensen : Exactly. The one witness is dead, Bryce will get away with it and you can stop protecting him. It's legal fact.

  Justin Foley : Did you talk to somebody? Tell me what the fuck you did.

  Clay Jensen : Are you listening? I just told you, I can't go to the cops.

  Justin Foley : What do you want from me?

  Clay Jensen : Tell Jessica the truth about what happened to her that night.

  Justin Foley : She knows what happened. Go ask her.

  Clay Jensen : I did. She repeated whatever bullshit lies you fed her, but she knows something's up. She's messed up. She was drunk at school today.

  Justin Foley : She's fine.

  Clay Jensen : She's fucked up and so are you. Jessica deserves the truth and she's never gonna believe it unless it comes from you.

• Jessica Davis : [When Clay confronts Jessica about the night of her party]  Seriously, Clay? Get over it.

  Clay Jensen : It was you she was talking about, right? Because if it was, I want to help, okay? We need to do something about it. Tell someone.

  Jessica Davis : That night did not happen the way Hannah said.

  Clay Jensen : Then how did it happen?

  Jessica Davis : I hooked up with my boyfriend.

  Clay Jensen : With Justin.

  Jessica Davis : Yeah. With Justin.

  Clay Jensen : Hannah said you were completely out of it. She said things happened.

  Jessica Davis : If something happened, I'd remember it.

• Clay Jensen : Excuse me, Mrs. Bradley?

  Pam Bradley : Yes, Clay?

  Clay Jensen : Um, about what I said yesterday, about Hannah writing that note. Well, I... I wasn't trying to say it was your fault, and I wanted to apologize for being rude.

  Pam Bradley : Well, that's very...

  Clay Jensen : 'Cause people need to take responsibility for their actions and face the consequences, one way or another.

• Marcus Cole : Yo, Clay. What's up? How you doing today?

  Clay Jensen : What do you want, Marcus?

  Marcus Cole : Did you and Tony talk yesterday?

  Clay Jensen : We sure did.

  Marcus Cole : Okay, and you're just doing your own thing.

  Clay Jensen : Oh, more than ever.

  Marcus Cole : Okay. Okay, look, I understand that you're going through your own process or whatever, but I'm worried about you, man. I don't want to see you get hurt.

  Clay Jensen : Yeah, I'm sure you don't.

  Marcus Cole : Hey, I'm trying to protect you, okay? But I can't if you keep running your mouth. I mean, what's your play here, anyway?

  Clay Jensen : My play? Like it's a game? Okay, you threw rocks through Tyler's window. What did you do for Jessica? This is the second tape where somebody committed a crime. There's a criminal walking around our school...

  Marcus Cole : Wait a minute.

  Clay Jensen : Don't touch me. Look, maybe Jessica's managed to convince herself nothing happened, but if she's not gonna do anything, I will.

  Marcus Cole : Listen, no one knows if those tapes are telling the truth and Jessica said nothing happened. No court of law's gonna listen to a case where...

  Clay Jensen : I'll start with the school.

  Marcus Cole : You don't know what the f... you don't know what you're doing. Okay? You haven't even listened to your own tape. I'm telling you, the worst is yet to come.

• Clay Jensen : [to Justin]  Whatever happened, whatever Hannah thinks happened, how does that help Jess now?

  Justin Foley : What she needs, what we all need is for this to be done with.

  Clay Jensen : How can she be done with this if she doesn't know what it is?

• Clay Jensen : [to Justin]  You can get me suspended, you can ruin my fucking life if you want to. It won't change what you did and sooner or later, people are going to find out.

  Justin Foley : People are not gonna find out.

  Clay Jensen : Why are you protecting Bryce? What does he have on you?

  Justin Foley : I'm not protecting Bryce, you little fuck! God, I'm protecting Jessica! I care more about Jessica than I do about Hannah, than I do about you, than I do about anybody else. All right? So just get the fuck out!

  Clay Jensen : I want my bike.

  Justin Foley : Your bike? Seriously?

  Clay Jensen : Yes, you fucking asshole, I want my bike.

  Justin Foley : It's out back behind the building. Go knock yourself out.

• Clay Jensen : [to Tony]  I just talked to Justin about Jessica.

  Tony Padilla : Okay.

  Clay Jensen : How did everyone how did you just listen to that, and, like, ignore it?

  Tony Padilla : I don't think anyone ignored it, Clay.

  Clay Jensen : Why is everyone protecting Bryce? Why are you?

  Tony Padilla : I'm doing it for Hannah.

  Clay Jensen : Fuck that, Tony! Fuck that! Jessica got raped! And Justin's got her brainwashed. Everyone at school is covering it up .That is beyond fucked up!

  Tony Padilla : You don't know the whole story yet.

  Clay Jensen : What else do I need to know? You're brainwashed like the rest, but I'm not, okay? And I'm not gonna sit back and do nothing like you and everyone else, including Hannah.

  Tony Padilla : You need to calm down.

  Clay Jensen : She let everyone intimidate her over and over and over, until she just disappeared. Well, not me. No. I am not giving up.

• Tony Padilla : [to Clay]  What happens if the tapes get out? Let's say we try and get some justice for Jessica. What then? It's his word against a dead girl's. Open season on Hannah Baker all over again.

  Clay Jensen : What if we got one person to tell the truth? I mean, just one of them.

  Tony Padilla : All right, okay, I'll make you a deal. Listen to the tapes, all of them and then we'll talk. We'll do whatever we have to do.

  Clay Jensen : And you'll help me?

  Tony Padilla : Always.

• Clay Jensen : I'm never getting old

  Hannah Baker : Yeah, me neither
