Jesse : So we're putting him back in the ocean.
[Glen refuses to listen]
Jesse : Glen, help us. Help us and I'll do anything. Anything.
Glen : What is it that you think I want from you, Jesse?
Jesse : I don't know. I don't know what you want from me. Look, I got to look out for Willy and I got to do what's best for him. You understand?
[Willy cries as Glen looks to Randolph and Rae who aren't sure if he's going accept Jesse's help]
Jesse : Please, Glen, please. I'm asking for your help. He's gonna die.

Jesse : So how much they payin' you to be my jailer?
Glen : [clears throat] A jailer, huh? Yeah, boy, I'm making such a great deal on you you wouldn't believe it. You're a regular cash cow, kid. That, plus a million dollars I could probably retire by the time I'm 300 years old. Look, you're gonna have to help me out a little bit here. Okay? Dwight says that I was supposed to make some rules for you and, uh, problem is, I've always been a better rule-breaker than rule-maker, myself and, uh. So you're gonna have to tell me what you think you need.

Annie : [putting dinner on the table] You interested in computers, Jesse?
Jesse : No.
Annie : Well, I could teach you. I just learned last summer myself.
Jesse : I'm not into it.
Glen : That makes two of us.
[Jesse and the Greenwoods start eating dinner]
Annie : Well, I wasn't either. But then I decided that I want a second career in journalist and a teacher, and so I'm, uh, taking the summer off to write. A couple of weeklys have, uh, taken couple stories. I haven't earned anything yet.
Glen : [watching Jesse go after the food] Go ahead. Just, uh, dig right in.
[Jesse glares at Glen]
Annie : In fact, that's what I know, Dwight did a story on Cooperton.
Jesse : Dwight's a jerk.
Glen : So what are you exactly into, Jesse?
Jesse : I'm not into talking while I'm eating.

Glen : How do you like that? Just when you think you're starting to get through, starting to make some sense, starting to make a connection, whammo!
[Jesse stares at the present while in his room]
Annie : Well, he's scared and he's pushing us away.
Glen : Well, I'd like to give him a push right out the door.
Annie : Hey, don't say things like that.
Glen : What's the matter? Does that make you angry?
Annie : Yes it makes me angry. It didn't help if you use that tone of voice when you came into the door.
[Jesse takes the unopened present]
Glen : He's driving me crazy. Look what he's doing.
Annie : You know why you're really angry?
Glen : Know why I'm really angry? Yeah.
Annie : Is because you have feelings for him and that scares you because he reminds you of yourself.
[Jesse opens welcome gift and letter from Greenwoods]
Glen : Okay. You're right.
Annie : I know I'm right.
Glen : I don't like it. We don't owe anybody anything, okay? We tried, did the best we could do. It doesn't have to be any more than that.
[Annie disagrees]
Glen : What is this? Another one of your crusades?
[Jesse witnesses the argument]
Annie : This is not a crusade, Glen. We're talking about a human being.
Glen : Annie, I'm happy. Just you and me.

Glen : Jesse, adults argue sometimes. But that doesn't mean that anybody's gonna get hurt. I would never hurt Annie or you. You should know that.
