Katharine McPhee: Karen Cartwright

Quotes 

• Kyle Bishop : [after Karen sang Jimmy's song]  Would you calm down? I only showed her one. I had no idea she was gonna do that.

  Karen Cartwright : [comes rushing up]  I... I'm so sorry. I didn't think you'd get so mad.

  Jimmy Collins : Stay out of this, princess.

  Karen Cartwright : Oh, my God. I... I just think you're really talented. I wanna help.

  Jimmy Collins : I don't need your help, all right? I... I write for myself. If you wanna go write your own musical, great, go ahead. Leave mine alone!

  Kyle Bishop : It's not just yours!

  Jimmy Collins : Yeah, says the guy who sits there and watches me write the songs.

  Karen Cartwright : Hey! Your music is really good. I know it's scary to put yourself out there, but you have to. Otherwise,

  [shakes her head] 

  Karen Cartwright : you're never gonna know how good you are.

  Jimmy Collins : Yeah, unlike you. I don't need other people to tell me I'm good. I know I'm good.

  Karen Cartwright : I know I'm good, too.

  Jimmy Collins : Oh, yeah? Then why aren't you out there on stage, in the city, taking your... your curtain call instead of out here begging two strangers for a song to help you get there? You know, I think you should just take your friends and go.

  Karen Cartwright : Don't worry, we're gone.

  [turns, leaves]
