Ben
- Ben: I'm not going back!
- Evie Walton: Then, I'll walk!
- Ben: You can't! You're dying!
- Evie Walton: I am not dying.
- Ben: You mustn't be afraid of death.
- Evie Walton: I am not dying!
- Ben: God embraces all who believe in him, for they will have everlasting life.
- Evie Walton: I AM NOT DYING! I MADE IT UP!
- [Evie starts walking away from the car]
- Ben: [gets out of the car] I forgive you!
- Evie Walton: Have a drink!
- Ben: I don't drink.
- Evie Walton: Go on! It'll make you feel better.
- Ben: No, it won't.
- Evie Walton: [annoyed] It was a key. I swallowed it. Frankly, you should be flattered! Now... I insist you have a drink.
- Ben: I'm underage!
- Evie Walton: Well... how old are you?
- Ben: Seventeen and a half.
- Evie Walton: So young and so pedantic... One glass. You can tell God I forced you.
- Ben: [Ben has written a poem for Evie, and reads it to her] Some mysteries I'll never understand: the way the Earth rotates around the sun, three minutes shorter every day. Or the way the dead are gone. Or putting down the phone or turning a corner. The future: that's another whopper. We can never know what we can never know, except, that whoever you are, and whoever I am, you made it allright to be me.
- Ben: [Shrugging modestly] It's not Shakespeare...
- Evie Walton: [Moved by Ben's somewhat odd poem] Oh, dear. But it's lovely. And it's you.
- Robert Marshall: [talking about Laura] I think it's better this way.
- Ben: How can you say that? After all the shit she put you through, how can you say that to me? You're my dad! You're meant to stand up for yourself! You should've divorced her! You should've told her to bloody well fuck off!
- Robert Marshall: I did. It was me who asked for the divorce.
- Ben: Oh my god! You swallowed the key!
- Evie Walton: What a relief, he swears.
- Ben: You swallowed the frigging key!
- Evie Walton: Better and better.
- Ben: My mother's gonna kill me. You don't understand. She said I wasn't to come. I asked and she said no. You don't say yes when my mother says no, you don't do it!
- Evie Walton: My dear boy, the key will be back with us in the morning! I'm regular as clock work.
- Ben: [about Evie swallowing the key] Choke! Bring it back! You can't do that! You have to bring it back!
- Evie Walton: No, I don't.
- Ben: [desperate] Yes, you do!
- Evie Walton: No, I don't.
- Ben: Shit! There's the spare one! Where's the spare?
- Evie Walton: Haven't got one.
- Ben: How could you do that?
- Evie Walton: Felt like it.
- Ben: God gave you your talent for a reason.
- Evie Walton: There's no God, you pompous little cretin!
- Ben: God forgives you for that too.
- Evie Walton: Let's get one thing clear, sunny boy! I do the forgiving, not God!
- Ben: That's a terrible thing to say!
- Laura Marshall: Where the hell have you been? It's six o' clock.
- Ben: I got held up.
- Laura Marshall: Got held up? We had a driving lesson at four. You should've let me know.
- Ben: There was nowhere to call from, if I had a mobile...
- Laura Marshall: Mobiles give you cancer!
- Laura Marshall: Camping? Why on earth would anyone want to go camping?
- Robert Marshall: ...to escape.
- Laura Marshall: You don't have to tell me what happened. I know already. Some people are wicked. That's all there is to it.
- Ben: She isn't wicked.
- Laura Marshall: She's an actress! I think that says enough.
- Ben: [about Evie] I have to be there before she goes on or she can't remember her lines!
- Bryony: Ben, she's reading from a book!
- Ben: Makes a difference! She's completely helpless unless I'm in the same room.
- Bryony: Isn't that a bit weird?
- Ben: She's not weird!... she's just... nervous...
- Bryony: Relax! She's having you on!
- Ben: No, she isn't! I promised her I'd be there! Once you've made a promise you should keep it!...
- [silence]
- Ben: ... Sorry...
