In the picture of the two hands wearing wedding bands and the phrase "sometimes they come back", the wedding bands are not colored in, but when Peyton first gave it to Nathan they were yellow/gold.
When Nathan is at the river court, Deb comes towards him. Right before it cuts to Deb, you can see Mouth walking towards Nathan, but in the next shot Mouth is gone.
When Nathan hands Peyton the frame, with a picture of them in the beginning of the school year, he picks up the frame with his left hand and changes to his right hand to hand it to Peyton. But in the next shot he hands the picture to Peyton with his left hand.
Whitey: You're playing with fire Danny, and you're about to get burned! Dan: Bring it on, old man.
Lucas: I wanna be with you, Brooke. Brooke: What? Lucas: I'm sorry. I know we're friends. It's just how I feel. Brooke: What about Peyton's stuff? Lucas: I keep that stuff as a reminder of how badly I screwed up things. With you. To remind myself, if I ever get a second chance, I'd never let you go again.
Peyton: You don't know anybody who has the IM name WATCHMEWATCHU, do you? Brooke: Mmm…sounds pervy. Sadly, no.
Brooke: And once you lose yourself, you have two choices. Find the person you used to be or lose that person completely.
Nathan: And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate, but losing your reason for the journey is a fate more cruel.
Lucas: Tennessee Williams once wrote: "We all live in a house of fire. No fire department to call. No way out. Just the upstairs window to look out of while the fire burns down the house with us trapped, locked in it."
Elizabeth: My name is Elizabeth. Peyton: Great! So even your name is a lie. Elizabeth: Like your middle name, Elizabeth. That's how you got your middle name. Peyton: Who are you? Elizabeth: I'm your mother.
Lucas: Look, are we ever gonna talk about Peyton? And the stuff you found? Brooke: It's not a big deal. Actually, I was kinda relieved. Lucas: Relieved? Brooke: I thought you might be into me. And that would've ruined everything because we've become friends. And that's exactly what I needed. And it's exactly what I want. Lucas: But you seemed upset that I held onto all that stuff. You still do. Brooke: Finding that stuff was kind of like evidence. Reminded me of what happened and how it happened. And I guess my heart just wasn't ready for that.
Peyton: Brooke, I'm sorry. I know you had feelings for Lucas. Brooke: Phantom feelings. Like, when you lose a leg and try to scratch it. Lucas was my gangrene infected amputated limb.
Brooke: LUCAS! Do not make me join you! Lucas: Uh, a little privacy here. Brooke: No, you've been in the shower forever! By the time I even get in the water it's gonna be...(Checks water) cold! Are you taking a cold shower?! Lucas: No, the hot water- Brooke: Gross! You are! You know what? Next wet dream, tell Peyton I said 'Hi'. Ew!
Brooke: (walks in on Nathan and Peyton involved in a tickle-fight) Well, well. First Lucas, then Jake and now Nathan... I guess "slutty" is in season. Peyton: And why is Bitch being a Brooke? Brooke: Because! I'm leaving tomorrow for the summer, possibly forever, and my best friend is off giving interviews and having psuedo-innocent foreplay with kind-of married guys!
Nathan: This is us at the beginning of the year. You were never happier. Peyton: You were never hornier.
Peyton: As a matter of fact, it's half-past the crazy bitch so leave me alone!
Peyton: Are you not helping me move you because it brings back bad memories or because you're a lazy pile of crap?
