Matt

It doesn't matter what Lucy said. I stopped trusting her after she stole my poprocks in the third grade.

Matt

You don't always get the dream house, but sometimes you get pretty close, you know?

Matt

You know, I can't believe you invited those clones.

Jenna

They're my friends.

Matt

The Six Chicks are not your friends, okay?

Jenna

Well… almost. And someday I'm gonna be a Six Chick.

Matt

There are six of them, Jenna. That's the whole point. there can't be a seventh Six Chick. It's just mathematically impossible. Besides, you're way cooler than they are. they're totally unoriginal.

Jenna

I don't wanna be original, Matty. I wanna be cool.

Jenna

Hey! You got arm hair!

Matt

Never got quite that reaction before.

Matt

Jenna, what are you... Why are you here?

Jenna

Matty, I told you - something really weird is happening. Yesterday was my 13th birthday and then, and then today I woke up and I'm this, and you, I mean - you're that! You get it?

Matt
[long pause]

Are you high? You been smoking pot? Doing X? Fallen into a K-Hole? You doing drugs?

Jenna

What happened?

Matt

I don't know. I can pretty much peg it to your 13th birthday party, when you were in the closet playing that game. Spin the Rapist?

Jenna

Seven Minutes in Heaven.

Jenna

Matty.

Matt

Yeah?

Jenna

Arrivederci.

Matt

I'll see you.

Jenna

Matt!

Matt

Yeah?

Matt
[she gives him a look]

Au revoir.

Beaver? You lost all your baby fat! How does the Beaver stay warm in winter?

Matt

Lucy? I barely recognized you. Did you get a nose job?

Jenna

I love you, Matt. You're my best friend.

Matt

Jenna... I've always loved you.

Young Matt

Hey, Jenna. [takes a picture of him and Jenna]

Matt, please. No more pictures.

Young Matt

Come on, it's your 13th birthday. We gotta document it.

Young Matt
[offering sweets]

Wants some Razzles?

Razzles are for kids.

Young Matt
[smiles knowingly]

Exactly.

Young Matt
[Jenna takes some, and they both enjoy]

Arrivederci.

Au revoir.

Jenna
[on the sidewalk, ringing the buzzer for an upstairs apartment]

Hello? Yeah. Hi, this is Jenna and I'm looking for Matt. I don't know if you're him, but if you lived on Spruce Street and if your favorite shirt is a gray velour one, I need to speak to you right now.

Matt
[talking over speaker-system, poor reception]

Hello? Hello? You know what? I got none of that. But if you're here from Ming Gardens food delivery, ring twice. If not, I really don't want it.

Matt
[Jenna walks upstairs and knocks on the door to apt. 2-B; Matt opens the door and sees Jenna.]

You're not Chinese.

Jenna
[panicked]

I want a fluffy pillow!

Matt

A fluffy pillow, coming right up.

Jenna

I don't know what Lucy said to you about me. But I want you to know that whoever she was talking about wasn't me.

Matt

It doesn't matter what Lucy said. I stopped trusting her after she stole my Pop Rocks in the third grade.

Jenna

Matt I am not the awful person that I was. I don't even know that person. And I'd like to believe... I have to believe that if you knew that... that if in your heart, you really, really knew that, you wouldn't be getting ready to marry someone now. Unless that someone were me.

Matt

Jenna, I'm gonna lie to you. I have felt things these past few weeks... that I didn't know I could feel anymore. But I have realized these past few days that... you can't just turn back time.

Jenna

Why not?

Matt

I moved on. You moved on. We've gone down different paths for so long. We made choices. I chose Wendy. That's her family down there. We care about each other, you know? You don't always get the dream house, but you get awfully close.

[Jenna returns to 1987, and has a second chance as "Crazy for You" by Madonna plays in the background.] [to Matt; smugly]

Jenna's waiting for you in the closet.

Young Jenna
[Young Lucy goes upstairs; Young Matt goes to the closet and opens door.] [excitedly]

Matty! [pounces on Young Matt and passionately kisses him]

Young Matt
[impressed]

Wow. You really know what you're doing.

Young Jenna

Come on.

[takes scarf; sarcastically]

Sorry, I forgot my scarf.

Young Jenna
[angrily snatches Lucy's homework, and rips it up]

You know what? You can be the pot and kettle all by yourself from now on, [splashes Young Lucy's drink on her dress] biatch. [to Matt] Come on, Matt.

[to Young Jenna; incensed and confused]

What did you call me?

Young Jenna

We're gonna be late.

Young Matt

For what?

Young Jenna

You'll see.

Jenna
[last lines]

A Razzle, Mr. Flamhaff?

Matt

Thank you, Mrs. Flamhaff.
