Lindsey: Hi, Luke. Just got your dedication, and I guess I'm one of those lost souls because I lied to you. I said I was seeing someone and I wasn't. 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. edit »
Lucas: You look good.
Lindsey: You look hungover.
Lucas: Yeah, well there's a girl I almost married, started dating again, and after that things just kind of went dark. edit »
Haley: You know that romantic notion that all the garbage and the pain is actually really healing and beautiful... sort of poetic? It's not. It's just garbage and it's pain. You know what's better? Love. The day you start thinking love is overrated is the day that you're wrong. The only think wrong with love, and faith, and belief is not having it. edit »

On the roof of Clothes over Bro's, Haley talks to Lucas about their last water balloon fight after the Boy Toy auction when Lucas first saw her tattoo. This is referring to episode 1.18 To Wish Impossible Things. edit »
The writing on the rivercourt was Lyrics to The Cure's Love song.

"Whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am free again. Whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am clean again. However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you" edit »
