Matt Garetty : Andrew! Andrew, look at me! This has to stop right now, okay? This is really, really bad. What happened to you?
Andrew Detmer : Why did you catch him?
Matt Garetty : Listen, just focus okay?
Andrew Detmer : I dropped him! Why did you catch him?
Matt Garetty : Andrew, this is not a game, do you understand? You're hurting people!
Andrew Detmer : You're weak, Matt! You're all weak. I'm stronger than all of this!
Matt Garetty : Andrew, listen to me, okay? Just... I need you listen. Just focus for a second.
Andrew Detmer : Do not tell me what to do!
Matt Garetty : They can't stop us, it's not too late for us to go.
Andrew Detmer : It is too late. I'm done! It's over... god, you treated me like shit! You left me alone!
Matt Garetty : Andrew, you're not alone up here. I'm here with you! I should've been with you all along, but I'm here now. We can stop this right now, you and me. Andrew, we can just fly away, we can get out of here. We can be family! Andrew? Andrew, look at yourself. This isn't who you are!

Andrew Detmer : I've been doing a lot of reading, you know? Like, online about, like, just evolution and natural selection and how like there's this thing, right? It's called the apex predator, right? And basically what this is, is the strongest animal in the ecosystem, right? And as human beings, we're considered the apex predator but only because smaller animals can't feed on us because of weapons and stuff, right? A lion does not feel guilty when it kills a gazelle, right? You do not feel guilty when you squash a fly... and I think that means something. I just think that really means something.

Richard Detmer : How you getting to school?
Andrew Detmer : I don't know what you mean.
Richard Detmer : Don't bullshit me, you idiot. Matt doesn't come. He didn't drive up. You leave the house. Who the hell is giving you rides to school?
Andrew Detmer : M-Matt.
Richard Detmer : All right. You know what? You're lying. You're up to something, and you can't hide it. You think you can just slink? Hmm? Sneaking, sneaking around my house, smiling? I'm onto your shit.

Andrew Detmer : Please believe me, Steve. Please, it's just I-I don't know what I did. I lost control, and I'm so sorry. This thing, it's just becoming a part of me now and I don't... I miss you, Steve.

Andrew Detmer : [to Steve] See, it's different, 'cause you've always had friends, and people want to talk to you and be around you. I never had any of that. I mean, before this, I barely even hung out with Matt, and he's my cousin. We were close when were little, but- I don't know. In high school, everything changed.
