Ben: And, um, I forgot something. I forgot to do this this. (leans in to kiss her)
Ben: Goodnight Amy.
Amy: Goodnight Ben. And again: I'm sorry for everything.
Ben: I'm not. edit »
Ashley: I stayed up because I wanted to ask you something. You're not... you're not like pregnant or anything are you?
Amy: (stuttering) Why would you say something like that?
Ashley: Well, Amy, you're acting really weird lately. And you're stuttering again so I know you're trying to cover something up. I mean you're lying, you're lying all the time. And you're hungry all the time. You eat everything in site. And you've gained weight; I mean you've got boobs. And you got sick; I mean you love the carousel. (pauses) So? I won't tell them if you are. I won't tell anyone, I promise. You're gonna need me if you are. Because you know they're going to kill you and you're gonna need a friend.
Amy: I have friends, Ashley.
Ashley: Not in this house. Not if you're having a baby. Just tell me, are you? Are you having a baby?
Amy: (nods and whispers) Yeah. edit »
Ashley: (to Amy, who's trying on a new top) When did you get boobs? edit »
Ben: (persuading Amy to go to the county fair) They've got plenty of food there. They've got corndogs and hotdogs and sausage and peppers and onions and churros and cotton candy and frozen bananas dipped in chocolate...
Amy: (laughing) Okay! You had me at corndogs. edit »
Adrian: (on Ricky helping Grace out) I'm not jealous of some prissy little virgin who thinks that she's better than everyone else! So you know what? Go do whatever you want. After all, we really aren't even friends. We're just bed buddies. edit »
