Andrew, “Who are you?”
Sam, “I’m your new friend Sam.”

Andrew, “This is my life, Dad. This is it. I’ve spent 26 years waiting for something else to start. So, no, I don’t think it’s too much to take on, because it’s everything there is. I see now it’s all of it. You and I are gonna be okay. You know that, right? We may not be as happy as you always dreamed we would be, but for the first time let’s just allow ourselves to be whatever it is we are, and that will be better, okay? I think that will be better.”

Doctor, “Mister . . . Andrew Largeman?”
Andrew, “Yes?”
Doctor, “. . . There’s absolutely nothing wrong with you.”
Andrew, “Really?”
Doctor, “Just kidding! How the hell would I know?”

Mark, “Don’t tease me about my hobbies. I don’t tease you about being an asshole.”

Sam, “Wow. That’s pretty damn random of you there, Andrew.”

Andrew, “There’s a handful of normal kid things I kinda missed.”

Sam, “There’s a handful of normal kid things I kinda wish I’d missed.”

Andrew, “You’re a cop, Kenny?”

Kenny, “Yeah, I know!”
Andrew, “. . . Why?”
Kenny, “I don’t know, man. Had nothing better to do.”

Andrew, “Can you imagine being the guy whose job it is to argue for the right to build a mall on top of a geological phenomenon?”

Mark, “They love their malls here, man.”

Sam, “This is your one opportunity to do something that no one has ever done before, and that no one will copy throughout human existence. And if nothing else, you will be remembered as the one guy who ever did this –this one thing.”

Andrew, “But Kenny, the last time I saw you, you were doing coke lines off a urinal.”

Sam, “I can tap-dance. . . You wanna see me tap-dance?”

Andrew, “I would love to see you tap-dance.”

Mark, “I’m okay with being unimpressive. I sleep better.”

Doctor, “Of course you’re all right. You’re alive.”

Andrew, “Hey Albert.”

Albert, “Yeah? 
Andrew, “Good luck exploring the infinite abyss.”
Albert, “Thank you. And, hey –you, too.”

Sam, “If you can’t laugh at yourself, life’s gonna seem a whole lot longer than you like.”

Mark, “Hey, if you ever need a Kato, you know where to find me.”

Andrew, “Do you lie a lot?”
Sam, “What do you consider a lot?”
Andrew, “Enough for people to call you a liar.”
Sam, “People call me lots of things.”
Andrew, “. . . Is one of them liar?”
Sam, “I could say no, but how would you know I’m not lying?”
Andrew, “I guess I could choose to trust you.”
Sam, “You can do that?”
Andrew, “I can try.”

Andrew, “I don’t want to waste another moment of my life without you in it.”

Sam, “You don’t realize. . . this is good; this doesn’t happen often in your life. We can work this stuff out. I want to help you, you know? We need each other.”
Andrew, “This isn’t a conversation about this being over, it’s –it’s. . . I’m not, like, putting a period at the end of this, you know; I’m putting, like, an ellipsis on it. ‘Cause I’m –I’m –I’m worried that if I don’t figure myself out, if I don’t go, like, land on my own two feet, then I’m just gonna to mess this whole thing up, and this is too important. I gotta go. You changed my life in four days. This is the beginning of something really big. But right now, I gotta go.”

[Gets on plane, is seated and ready to leave . . . gets back off, runs up to Sam who's crying in a telephone booth.]

Sam, “What are you doing?”
Andrew, “Remember that idea I had, about working stuff out on my own, and then finding you once I worked stuff out?”
Sam, “The ellipsis?”
Andrew, “Yeah, the ellipsis –it’s dumb. It’s dumb. It’s an awful idea. I’m not gonna do it, okay? ‘Cause like you said, this is it. This is life. And I’m in love with you.  . . .I think that’s the only thing I’ve ever really been sure of in my entire life! And I’m really messed up right now, and I got a whole lot of stuff I have to work out, but I don’t want to waste any more of my life without you in it. And I think I can do this. I mean, I want to. I have to, right?”
Sam, “Yeah. Yes.”
Andrew, “So, what do we do? –What do we do?”

[They kiss.]
