"How about, "I hate you, bitch, you ruined my life"?" "Does that do anything for you?" "You know what?" "I do have some words for you, even though they're not mine."

"A man" "But sometimes a guy just needs a sign there's some hope for him." "You know?" "I'll never be" "Hope." "Thanks for lunch and for telling the new sports guy off." "But I should probably get back to being shunned." "I'm sorry it's so hard for you now." "You know something?" "I stand by what I did." "Luke was really hurting and it just felt insidious somehow" " to broadcast that pain, but..." " Mouth." "How many men's basketball championships has UCLA..." "Eleven."

"Then find yourself a girl and take her to bed" "For a little pretty boy like you" "It shouldn't be the hardest thing to do" "It's funny how it always ends this way" "How I can never bring myself to say" "But honey, if you're really being sincere" "Jamie." "You're tracking water all over the house." "I can't get him out of that pool now." "Dude, dry off and get your jersey on." "We're going back to the gym." " We are?" " Yeah."

"I had to go see Brooke." "The trifecta." "How nice." "What did Lindsey want?" "She wanted to tell me that my book's done." "Well, everything except the dedication." "She said I can email that to her." "That she was so far" "I'm sorry, Luke." "I'm thinking about taking off for a little while." "Lucas, please stop running." "Come on, you got to let go of this dark weight you're carrying around." "This morning, Nathan told me the darkness doesn't have any answers." "He's right." "You saw him after his accident." " And look at him now." " Yeah." "You know that romantic notion that all the garbage and the pain is actually really healing and beautiful and sort of poetic?" "When this time together ends" "It's not." "It's just garbage and it's pain." "We will remain friends" "You know what's better?" "Love." "She said that it would make her very glad" "The day that you start thinking that love is overrated, is the day that you're wrong." "That she appreciates the times we've had" "The only thing wrong with love and faith and belief is not having it."

"Thanks." " Hey, Lindsey, did you tell him?" " No, bye." "She said that it would make her very glad" "That she appreciates the times we've had" "It's funny this repeating of history" "As my corrupted tongue is betraying me" "Hi, Luke." "Just got your dedication and..." "By not having the guts" "I guess I'm one of those lost souls, because I lied to you." "All those little words of love" "I said I was seeing someone and I wasn't." "That I wanted to say" "The truth is," "I was afraid of the immensity of your love, and I thought..." "I just wanted you to know." "You asked me if I miss you." "Of course I miss you." "It's all I do." "(FLUMEPLAYING)" " Hi." " Hi." "They're supposed to call me as soon as Angie's home safe." " Where's Peyton?" " I don't know." "Probably at work?" "I didn't tell her Angie was leaving for sure." "And you told me not to come to the airport." "Why?" "I don't like you guys to see me like this." "Vulnerable." "That's how I always see you, Brooke." "And I think it's kind of beautiful." "You know, I've been thinking about all the things you've done for Angie and Rachel and me..." "I mean, all kinds of people." "Only love is all maroon" "You save people, Brooke Davis." "It's what you do." "Gluey feathers on a flume" "Thanks for letting me share that." "You call me when she's home safe, okay?" "Hey, Luke." "We've been through a lot, me and you." "But I wouldn't have made it through today or a couple of other days without you." " So, thanks." " You're welcome." "I am my mother on the wall, with us all" "This is for you." " I love you, Lucas Scott, you know that?" " I love you, too, Brooke Davis." "Okay, come on, guys." "Let's go." "Let's go."

" Obviously, the local powerhouses are disappointed, but Dorsett cited UCLA's once proud legacy..." " What's that?" " The prompter's down." "(BEEPING)" " Oh." "Go to Rick." " I don't think you wanna do that." "Have him fill." "Steve, fill." "As many of you know, UCLA's mascot is a bruin, which is kind of a cute bear." "Oh, for God's sake." "Where's the prompter?" " It's not up yet." " BILL:" "Should we go to commercial?" "All right, say exactly what I say." "Dorsett cited UCLA's legacy." "Just look into the camera and say, "Dorsett cited UCLA's legacy.""

"I can't think" "Seen this before and I know what's about to break you" "I don't hate you." "I remember the first time I ever saw you." "Everyone's saying the best is already gone" "All skinny arms and tangled mess of hair." "But I know what we got coming 'round" "It was hard letting you go, Peyton." "You know what?" "It's hard losing you and it was hard seeing you again." "It's only half of what we got coming 'round" "And it's still" " really hard." " I know." "While I'm asleep, I have this dream where we're back in that hotel room in L.A." "And you proposed to me." "And every single time, I say yes." " It's just a dream, right?" " It's my dream."
