Nathan : Well, if I was 6'5", I might be in the pros by now.

Jamie : What if you were 8'5"?

Nathan : I'd probably be d*ad of heart failure.

Jamie : Well, I think 6'2" is perfect. Heck, I'd settle for 4'2".

Brooke : First of all, shut it. Second of all, if I have been a little frigid lately... It's probably because I ... was att*cked at my store ... not long before you moved in, and it's made me a little closed off ... Especially with boys.

Coach : All right, all right. Gentlemen, we're gonna divide you up into groups and let you play. Point guards on my right. Two-Guards on my left. Forwards and centers, other end of the court. Show us what you got.

Chris : Let's go, fellas.

Man : Nathan. Two-Guards over here.

Nathan : I'm trying out as a point guard.

Coach : Okay. But... you ever played the point?

Flash back

Nathan : Well, I've never played point guard in my life.

Quentin : You better learn, 'Cause you're too short to play the two in the pros. Bro, you 6'2".

Nathan : And I was also 12 hours away From being an NBA lottery pick, you idiot.

Quentin : Well, I'm glad you had the accident, 'Cause you sure wouldn't have made it. You got to move to the point.

Nathan : You're out of your mind! You realize nobody's ever told me this before?

Quentin : Well, I'm telling you now, all right? And anyways, man, they all get their commission when you sign. Ain't like nobody gonna risk their 10% by telling you the truth. Huh? Now, look, Nate. Yo, if you can make it by playing against tall guys at the two, man, all good. But if you can't, we work on your handle, we work on your quickness, and we make damn sure you got the best sh*t of playing pro ball.

Nathan : Why are you doing this for me, Q?

Quentin : This ain't just your dream, man. Let's work on that left.

Numbers are funny. They can measure you, time you, analyze you all they want, but they all know what really matters Is how you play the game. He think I've lost a step because of my accident. So he's gonna play me tight. I haven't.

Mans : Whoo!

Now he'll back off because he doesn't want to get b*at off the dribble. Just a half step. That's a mistake.

Mans : Whoo!

You ever heard the expression "they can't measure heart"? Well, the truth is, they can't measure any of it ... Heart, want, need. They think i can't play point guard. But Q knew I could.

Mans : Whoo!

You can't measure a dream.

MOUTH'S WORK

Lucas : Okay, like what?

Dixon : All right, clear your head, all right? What if Haley... Dies?

Lucas : You're serious?

Dixon : I'm saying think about it. People love that stuff. Man, DiCaprio died in "titanic." That is gold, baby, gold!

Lucas : Yes, but it didn't happen.

Dixon : It doesn't matter. Let me ask you this. Who goes to see this movie? The same little bitches who went and saw "titanic." Young girls, man. They don't have a voice, But when they find something that speaks to them, We're talking box office, baby! You're king of the world! Whew!

Lucas : Even so, Haley can't just..Ie.

Dixon : You got a vision. I can respect that. What about this? ... What if Lucas and Haley get married? I'm serious about this one, 'Cause if there's one thing that I know, It's that audiences get crazy over who ends up together. It's what I do, Luke. It's what I know. Think about it.

AT CLOTHES OVER BROS

Brooke : I thought about it. And I'm not interested.

Julian : You couldn't have told me that over the phone?

Brooke : Well, that, yeah, But the rest of this I wanted to say to your face. I don't trust you ... Not with Peyton, and definitely not with Sam. And that is not gonna get you anywhere ... the grin. I'm sure it's gotten you in a lot of doors And in a lot of beds, but it's not gonna do you any good with me.

Julian : Listen, Brooke, when i make a movie, I set the bar as high as I possibly can. I put together y wish-List cast, My wish-List crew, my wish-List designer, And sometimes, you know, the timing works out, The material works out, and you get lucky. Sometimes you don't. Good luck with everything.

PEYTON'S STUDIO

Peyton : God, I hope that's not true, because i liked that girl. As a matter of fact, i loved that girl.

Mia : Oh, really? Then what happened to protecting her? What happened to telling the label to be patient, because my songs are gonna be great?

Peyton : Oh, I've been doing that! I have been doing that for months now! But what happened to actually doing the work, Mia? Now, the label wants you to record this song Because they care. When they stop caring, that's when we have a problem.

Mia : Well, I'm not gonna do it.

Peyton : You are being so ungrateful! Do you understand? I put my ass on the line for you every single day!

Mia : Well, I put my ass on the line for you every single night, Peyton. Okay? Literally. Did you see how short that skirt was that you put me in at the U.S.O. Show? But I did it. I've done everything you've asked me to do, but I am not gonna do this.

Peyton : Hey. I'm not sure you should be on this label anymore. Life's too short. Trust me.

Brooke : But ... Sam, I'm sorry. I don't understand.

Sam : The att*ck ... it was my fault.

Julian : I'll let you two...

Brooke : Julian, if she calls you ...

Julian : It's not my problem.

Owen : Look ... I just mean it's not like she's gonna stay with you forever, right?

Brooke : What is wrong with you? I came here because I need your help.

Owen : But, I mean, you know Sam. She'll turn up.

Brooke : No. It's different this time. But with you, it's exactly the same.
