Scene 1 Hunter and his girlfriend's father referred to as H and F
H: This is very romantic, but what the fuck are we doing here?
F: You know, you remind me of...There was a boy a few years back.
H: Klye Tate, right? Yeah, I know all of the stories. I look like someone who wants to spend the next 20 years rotting away up in Walpole? I'm not gonna go out like that. Not like that.
F: You ever thought about just giving it up?
H: Yeah, sure. And do...do what? Go to college. Get a job, maybe. I don't think that meatloaf dinners and a white picket fence are in the cards for me.
F: Well, how do you imagine this is gonna end?
H: Look, if you were gonna get me, you would got me already.
Scene 2 Daniel and Mckayla referred to as D and M
M: When I was a little kid, I used to catch them in those glass jars. It always reminds me of how planes looked when they're way up in the sky.
D: Why'd you stop?
M: Kept dying. Got depressing.
D: I think you should start collecting the fireflies again.
M: You can't hold on to everything.
D: I think some things you can.
M: Then I hope you're good at being hurt.
scene 1
H: All right. So what? So last time I checked, it wasn't illegal for your old man to be a fucking fuck-up.
F: It's a little hard to tell now, but half a lifetime ago, your dad was the coolest thing in 100 miles. Yeah, kind of guy who could break a girl's heart just walking into a room. Jimmy Srawberry. Yeah. See. We was thick as thives, me and him. We...uh...got into some trouble. They were good times. You know part of me likes to believe that it was him who saved me that he knew who he was, that he knew where his life was headed, and he didn't want that life for me. The choices that we make ain't always about us.
Scene 2
D: I've never really said this before...But I think I might...
M: Whatever it is that you want to say... Wait. And if you still wanna tell me when summer's over. Tell me then.
(bgm: I still love you. Just like you did before. But before you smile. Darling. I don't wanna cry. I don't wanna cry. No more. No...)
