A scene from The Lorax 2012
Once-ler

Why are you so interested in trees anyway? Why aren't you like other kids? Break-dancing and wearing bell-bottoms and playing the Donkey Kongs?

Ted

[laughs]

Yeah. Right, right. I don't know. Uh, I just thought it might be kinda cool to have one, you know.

Once-ler

[knowingly]

Aaah, it's a girl, isn't it?

Ted

[scoffs]

What? No!

Once-ler

Really? 'Cause when a guy does something stupid once, well, that's because he's a guy, but if he does the same stupid thing twice, that's usually to impress some girl.

Ted

[about Audrey]

Hey, she is not some girlǃ She's a woman… in high school… and she loves trees, and I'm gonna get her one.

Once-ler

Aww. How nice to see someone so undeterred by things like reality.

Ted

(sincerely)

Thank you.
