Quotes

12 and Holding

Edit
  • Rudy: Our birthday comes once a year and you ask for a hockey mask. You don't even play.
  • Jacob: Jason from Friday the 13th wears one. He's bad-ass.
  • Malee Chuang: I don't think it's about age. I think when two people really connect, they connect for other reasons. And since soul mates are eternal, they have no age.
  • Leonard Fisher: Why were you saving piss?
  • Rudy: Just in case. Pretty smart, huh?
  • Gus Maitland: You're going to like Dr. Chuang. This is only my second session. She's really good.
  • Malee Chuang: I'm not a patient, I'm her daughter.
  • [lifts her veil]
  • Gus Maitland: Oh yeah. Ah, I see the resemblance.
  • Malee Chuang: Are you trying to make me sick?
  • Jacob: No offense, but I never thought my future brother would be... a brotha.
  • Keith Gardner: I never thought my future brother would have a Kool Aid stain smeared across his face.
  • Jacob: Fuck you, it's a birthmark!
  • Grace Fisher: You can't just eat apples all the time.
  • Leonard Fisher: Why not?
  • Grace Fisher: It's unhealthy.
  • Gus Maitland: When I saw her last night, she had the same look on her face as that little girl. She just wanted me to take her pain away.
  • [Jacob is visiting the prison to talk to his brother's killers Jeff and Kenny. Only Kenny comes. They each take a visitation phone, looking at each other through the glass]
  • Jacob: I hate you, you know that?
  • Kenny: Hmm? All this happened 'cause of you, you deformed retard!
  • Jacob: Every night I lie in bed and plan your murder
  • Kenny: [Sarcastically] I'm shaking
  • Jacob: I'm gonna take a kitchen knife and chop off your fingers, then your nose, and then your tongue. Then I'm gonna take scissors and cut off your ears. When they find you, it'll be like putting a jigsaw puzzle back together
  • Kenny: You kill me, you come here
  • Jacob: So? What do I have to look forward to? You destroyed my life!
  • Kenny: What happened was an accident!

  • [Jacob puts the visitation phone back on the phone holder, and leaves]
  • [Jacob is visiting the Juvenile Hall again, using a visitation phone to talk through the glass to Jeff, who has a fat lip. Jeff walks away, as Kenny arrives and takes the visitation phone]

  • [Jacob shows his family photo to Kenny]
  • Kenny: Just stop. Why are you doing this?
  • Jacob: To remind you
  • Kenny: How could we forget? You've been coming here for months to "remind" us
  • Jacob: No one's forcing you to talk to me
  • Kenny: Anything to get out of my cell
  • Jacob: Is your cell small?
  • Kenny: Yes
  • Jacob: So's a coffin
  • Kenny: Look, I'd do anything to bring him back, but I can't. It's not easy being in here, and you saw Jeff
  • Jacob: [Sneering] Oh, what happened to him?
  • Kenny: He pissed the wrong guy off. Jeff's totally fucked right now
  • Jacob: Good
  • Kenny: Look, don't come back here ever again!
  • Jacob: Free country, I'll come if I want
  • Kenny: Don't expect me to show up!
  • [Kenny angrily walks away. Jacob smiles]
  • [Jacob visits the Juvenile Hall, but this time outside through the fence. He sees Kenny grieving. Kenny then looks at Jacob and walks up to him]
  • Kenny: What the hell do you want?
  • Jacob: I'm sorry about Jeff
  • Kenny: Like you give a shit! I bet when you heard you started dancing
  • [Jacob shakes his head. Kenny sits back down, and cries. Jacob looks at him sympathetically]
  • Leonard Fisher: [after Leonard's parents get angry for throwing away the Halloween candy] I wish somebody would have done it to me, maybe then I wouldn't be such a fat pig.
  • [snorts like a pig]
  • Grace Fisher: Leonard! Leonard! Open the door now! Leonard! Let me out of here Goddammit!
  • [Kenny's last day at the juvenile hall, Jacob visits him in the courtyard again]

  • Kenny: No way. You've never even been out on the road
  • Jacob: So?
  • Kenny: You don't need me to run away from home. You wanna come with me of all people?

  • Kenny: If this is what you want? Alright

  • Kenny: Wait, wait. Parole board feels I've been a model prisoner, they're giving me an early release
  • Jacob: How can they do that?
  • Kenny: I don't know, they just did. You're pissed, aren't you? I knew you'd be. What happened was an accident, Jacob
  • Jacob: So, you're getting out. Gonna head back to school?
  • Kenny: Fuck school. I'm going to New Mexico, living with my Dad, works on a ranch out there
  • Jacob, Kenny: You can't leave the state, it violates your probation
  • Kenny: My Dad won't tell anybody! No one will even notice I'm out there
  • Jacob: Your Mom will
  • Kenny: Jacob, the entire time I've been in here you're the only one who came to see me. She won't care
  • [Jacob waits outside Kenny's house while Kenny grabs his things]
  • Kenny: I heard it's supposed to rain so I packed a poncho. You're acting weird, man. You're not gonna be a chicken?
  • Jacob: No
  • Kenny: I'm telling you, man, it's gonna be great. You ain't gonna be a pussy, right?
