Heck Well, let's hang these flowers and get that jacket in some water.

2 quotes Heck Heck [Rachel wants to have sex in a park late at night]
We've got a flat. It's a good one. And I've confiscated your mother's key so she can't sneak up on us anymore. I swear that woman's got a sex radar.

H Heck, I've got a question.
Not now.
Heck What's the question, H?
H What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?
Heck [thinks for a few seconds]
I haven't got a bastard clue, I'm afraid.
There you are, you see. Now we can let him get married in peace.
[She starts to lead H to the church to find a seat for the wedding] [Catches H before Tessa can take her away completely]
It never happens. If there's a thing that can't be stopped, it's not possible for there to be something else which can't be moved, and vice versa. They can't both exist. You see, it's a trick question is the answer.
H [as Tessa leads her to the church]
Can she sit with me?
Heck [Craning around to see if Rachel's coming]
Yeah, yeah, I know you do.
She likes me, right? I got a vibe that she likes me.
Heck Coop, it's my wedding day. Can we talk about me?
Sure, yes.
[Turns with Heck to see if Rachel's coming. Waits a few seconds, then whispers]
Did you get the vibe that she likes me?
Heck So, what about you? Are you married? Ever been married, ever going to get married?
No. No. Maybe now that the law's changed.
Heck How do you mean?
Well, I'm gay.
Heck [chuckles, then realizes that it's not a joke]
Mmm... well done.
Heck As a tennis player.
I'm 29 years old.
Heck You're 31.
Precisely my point. I'm getting older. And I see you... I see what you've got with... I can see that stability. And the trust, and permanence. And I think... God, I'm glad I'm not you.
Heck [Rachel and Heck are having breakfast in bed]
I like this jam. It's really good jam. I should make jam. I could, you know.
'Course you could.
Heck You don't think I could.
Not for a second.
Heck Anyway, I was talking to Rob yesterday.
That man's an ass.
Heck That man is an ass. But he's got this really sweet girlfriend. God knows what she found to love about him, but she does. He cheats on her like a nutter.
Heck [Rachel gets up and starts to get dressed]
Oh, come back to bed.
I'm up now. Does she know?
Heck Well, I'm like, 'If you want to leave, tell her.' Are you really up?
I really am. Maybe he doesn't want to leave. Maybe he doesn't know what he wants.
Heck Anyway, he should figure it out before someone gets hurt... Why are you looking at me?
'Cause you're a good person.
Heck You wait till I make jam. Then I'll rock your world.
Heck [after finding that Rachel has a lesbian porn film]
It's porn, right? It's degrading. It's offensive.
God yes.
Heck Yeah. Let's watch it anyway. Come on, Rach, I mean, things have been getting slack in that department recently. I know it's my fault, and it's... yeah.
No, it's mine... I... uh... but I don't want to watch this.
Heck [sadly]
Why not?
It doesn't turn me on.
Heck Makes one of us.
Heck Edie, are you gay?
Am I gay? [laughs] I'm ecstatic!
Heck It's not you leaving that's going to kill me. It's you loving someone more.
No. You're not walking away. Don't... don't walk away from me.
Heck Yeah keep saying that. Pretend this is my choice.
What do you MEAN?
Heck Oh come on Rachel. We both know you'd have left me in the end.
That's not true.
Heck YES IT IS! [quieter] Yes it is. I want you to be happy. More than anything else I wanted to be the cause of happiness in you. But if I'm not, then I can't stand in the way, you see? Because what you're feeling now, Rachel, is the unstoppable force. Which means that I've got to move.
Heck So, what about you? Are you married? Ever been married, ever going to get married?
No. No. Maybe now that the law's changed.
Heck How do you mean?
Well, I'm gay.
Heck [chuckles, then realizes that it's not a joke]
Mmm...lovely...well done.
