• Sheri Holland : [to Clay]  Are you gonna tell anyone?

  Clay Jensen : We have to tell somebody. We have to do something.

  Sheri Holland : But it's over now.

  Clay Jensen : It's not over for his family. They still think he was driving drunk.

  Sheri Holland : He was driving drunk. For all we know, it wasn't the sign that caused the problem.

  Clay Jensen : You know that? Or you just want to believe it?

  Sheri Holland : This is why I didn't want you to listen to my tape. I didn't...

  Clay Jensen : You wanted to keep your secret.

  Sheri Holland : No. Because I didn't want you judging me for the worst thing I've ever done. Other people, they know my secret, but you're different.

  Clay Jensen : I'm going to the police station...

  Sheri Holland : Clay...

  Clay Jensen : To register for a drug diversion program that I have to take because your fucking friends got me suspended.

  Sheri Holland : I didn't know anything about that. I think it was terrible.

  Clay Jensen : Do you? Why don't you stop it?

  Sheri Holland : What can I do?

  Clay Jensen : His family, the man he hurt. They deserve to know how it really happened.

  Sheri Holland : We don't know how it really happened! I mean, yes, the sign was down, but he was driving drunk.

  Clay Jensen : He wasn't drunk.

  Sheri Holland : You know that? Or you want to believe it? I made the biggest mistake of my life and I'm trying to keep it from ruining my life. Do you get that?

• Sheri Holland : [When Clay discovers that Sheri is helping out the Cantrells]  The first time I came here, I tried to tell them. I stood on the front porch and I just I couldn't get a word out. I remember Miss Cantrell saying, "Well, don't just stand there, come in." The next time I stopped by, they invited me for dinner. The next time after that, I helped hang pictures and now I just spend time with them, help around the house.

  Clay Jensen : They seem to like you.

  Sheri Holland : Yeah, they're cute. They remind me of my grandparents.

  Clay Jensen : But they don't know the truth. You didn't tell them about the accident.

  Sheri Holland : What good would that do? Mrs. Cantrell says he still has nightmares about it.

  Clay Jensen : What about the other family?

  Sheri Holland : Look, I can't. I... I just I can't face them.

  Clay Jensen : And what they might do?

  Sheri Holland : Look, I will tell them. I will. Someday.

  Clay Jensen : You have to tell them now. Like, today.

  Sheri Holland : Why now? Why today?

  Clay Jensen : Because every day hurts.

  Sheri Holland : How do you know?

  Clay Jensen : Every day, they live not knowing the truth. They need this, Sheri.

  Sheri Holland : They do, or you do?

  Clay Jensen : They're hurting.

  Sheri Holland : How do you know that? Did you go see them?

  Clay Jensen : That's not the point. You can't keep this secret anymore.

  Sheri Holland : It's my secret, not yours.
