And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up…
Time, be my friend
Let me start again.
We must look inside our hearts to find
a world full of love - like yours, like mine.
KURT: Thank you. I was wrong.
APRIL: I’m sobering up and I’m heading to the Broadway, Will. I haven’t had a drink in forty-five minutes!
APRIL: I took your advice! I went home; I told Buddy that if he wanted to keep me around he had to ditch the old lady and give yours truly the top job… and then he died! One of his eyes went all funny and he had a stroke right in front of me.
WILL: Geez, April, are you okay?
APRIL: Okay? I’m rich!
We are beautiful, no matter what they say.
APRIL: You always give me the right advice, Mr. Schuester.
MERCEDES: Thanks, I’m not hungry.
QUINN: Yes you are. You’re starving. I know, I’ve been there. Did all the other kids start looking like food right before you fainted?
MERCEDES: Yeah, how’d you know?
QUINN: Been there. Eat the granola bar.
MERCEDES: Why are you being so nice to me? I can’t remember the last time you said two words to me that weren’t ‘you’ and ‘suck’.
QUINN: Cause I was you. Scared. Hating myself for eating a cookie. But I got over it.
MERCEDES: Yeah, well, of course you did, Miss Pretty Blonde with the white-girl ass.
QUINN: When you start eating for somebody else - so that they can grow, and be healthy - your relationship to food changes. What I realized is that if I’m so willing to eat right to take care of this baby, why am I not willing to do it for myself?.. You are so lucky. You’ve always been at home in your body. Don’t let Miss Sylvester take that away from you.
MERCEDES: I’m so embarrassed. This isn’t me. How did I become this person?
QUINN: You are beautiful. You know that. I’m going to stay here with you til your mom comes, okay?
