Are you out of your mind? What would you do something like that?
Lily Leonetti: [smoking a cigarette]
Self Expression.

Wait a minute. First you cut off all your hair, then you pierced your belly button, now you're smoking! What the hell is going on with you?
Lily Leonetti: [still smoking]
Tanya, don't you have some, some sort of super highway that you need to get on? Why don't you go have some fun.

Gredin: [leading her up to his sculpture]
I got carried away with Donald, I shouldn't have put you in the middle of it.
Lily Leonetti: [seeing his work]
Well, I, uh, probably over reacted. I can sometimes be hypersensitive.
Gredin:
You should be... You got it.
Lily Leonetti:
Yeah. I'm the only person in class whose hand the teacher has to hold. Literally.
Gredin:
Well! Falk has weakness for his female undergrads, especially when they look like you.

What is this?
Gredin:
This is my magical craft. I'm sorta hopin it'll win me a Gougenhiem.
Lily Leonetti: [smiling]
You'll get it.
Gredin:
You psychic?
Lily Leonetti:
No. You deserve it.
Gredin:
So, where were you the first two weeks?
Lily Leonetti: [going to sit at the stone wall]
Well, when I applied I never thought I'd get accepted. I did and I freaked. No big family emergency. Just my own little private one. That's all.
Gredin: [watching Lily close her eyes]
That's enough. You see that hill over there? That's Beverly Hills, that's my home. Might as well be Timbuktu. My father and I, we don't talk anymore. What are you thinking?
Lily Leonetti: [breathing deeply]
Making a wish.
Gredin: [laying back]
What are you wishing?
Lily Leonetti: [laying back]
That I could just... open my eyes and be different. Listen to me.
Gredin: [kisses her]
I'm listening. and I like doing that. You're beautiful.
Lily Leonetti:
No, I'm not.
Gredin: [continues kissing her]
Yes, you are. You're sweet... you're beautiful... and different.

Gredin: [to Lily, after finding the poems and the strange phone call]
You know there's seems to be a whole hell of a lot of... I don't know... What are you doing?... I wanna know, Lily!... I don't know who you are anymore. I don't know who I'm making love to anymore. If this is some kind of contest, Lily, I don't wanna compete.
