Taylor Townsend
- Taylor Townsend: You know, it is so great that you guys have each other.
- Summer: [confused] Thanks.
- Taylor Townsend: 'Cause everyone knows that Marissa was the popular one, and Seth, no judgment, but it's not like you got any cooler in the last two years. I mean, everyone just acted that way because they were afraid of Ryan Atwood. I mean, even as a senior, you're still pretty much the biggest geek in Newport.
- Summer: [cuts Taylor off] Oh-ho, no. All right, listen to me, skank, just because you're saying really mean things in, like, a really nice voice, doesn't mean that we don't realize that you're just some stupid little skank!
- Summer: [after Summer and Seth have tricked Taylor into revealing her affair with Dean Hess] Hey, skank.
- Seth: You were expecting someone taller? Blonder, with a pageboy haircut?
- Summer: Welcome to the Terradome, Townsend. You're busted.
- Taylor Townsend: [smugly] For what, exactly?
- Summer: Hmm. A little extracurricular activity with Dean Hess? Yeah. I saw you two making out at the dance.
- Taylor Townsend: [smugly] So what if we did?
- Seth: [stumped, to Summer] She makes one hell of a poker player. I mean, she's pretty good.
- Summer: Yeah, well, unless you and the Dean want this little thingamajig...
- Seth: [corrects Summer] Indiscretion.
- Summer: - to go public, we have a few demands. Don't we?
- Seth: Yeah.
- Summer: Starting with the lifting of the ban of Ryan Atwood from Harbor.
- Taylor Townsend: [indifferent] You can go ahead and tell anyone you want. No-one's going to believe you.
- Seth: [frustrated] She's like a block of ice.
- Summer: You willing to bet your squeaky little reputation on that, Taylor trash? 'Cause I've got a *huge* mouth and an even bigger buddy list. Mmm-hmm.
- [whips out Sidekick]
- Summer: See this right here? Sidekick. Walkie-talkie of the twenty-first century. Who should we radio first?
- Seth: How about my dad?
- Summer: Yeah. 10-4, good buddy. So what's it going to be? You can either tell Seth's dad the perverted truth and save your sorry ass, or you can roll the dice. Over and out.
- Summer: [after Taylor has tricked Summer into giving up Social Chair position] Just so you know, you and your friend the Dean may have won this round, but the war is not over.
- Taylor Townsend: Well, unless you have an exit strategy, don't even get out of the boat. I am a human quagmire.
- [leaves]
- Summer: [tries to look unruffled, then stops random passing student] What's a quagmire?
- [student ignores her and walks away]
- Summer: Hello?
- [to entire hallway]
- Summer: What's a quagmire?
- [Taylor prances into Summer's room]
- Summer: Who let you in?
- Taylor Townsend: I speak fluent housekeeper.
