Jade Butterfield: "[lovers' idle banter as they caress] Do you think I'm too small on top?"
David Axelrod: "You're perfect."
Jade Butterfield: "[vainly giggling] My eyes are too close together."
David Axelrod: "They're perfect."
Jade Butterfield: "[little smile] When I'm wrinkled and fat, you'll stop loving me. C'est la vie. [aims a kiss at him, laughing]"
David Axelrod: "I'll never stop loving you."
Jade Butterfield: "You can't say that. You don't know. [nestling her head on his chest]"
David Axelrod: "Yes, I do. I knew that from the very first. [his hand slowly strokes from between her shoulder-blades up to the back of her neck] I'll never stop loving you. I never want to. You're all I care about. And me. The person I am when I'm with you."
Jade Butterfield: "It's kinda scary. It keeps on getting stronger and stronger. I used to think it would be... [kiss] like being thirsty. Sometimes you'd feel like you'd had enough. [laughs, shakes head] It's not like that. [kisses]"

Hugh Butterfield: "[sternly] David. I don't want you to go into the house."
David Axelrod: "[looking back at him] Why? What's the matter?"
Hugh Butterfield: "[continues cleaning his car] You and Jade won't be seeing each other for a while."
David Axelrod: "[incredulously] What?"
Hugh Butterfield: "You heard what I said. This thing's gotten totally out of control. I made a mistake giving you so much freedom around here. Now Jade's fallen behind in her schoolwork, she can't sleep at night."
David Axelrod: "Just a second. I mean, Jade didn't say anything to me about this."
Hugh Butterfield: "Well, I'm telling you. I want you to stay away until after school is out. Thirty days."
David Axelrod: "You can't do this...!"
Hugh Butterfield: "Don't you tell me what I can do and can't do. Jade is my daughter. She's only fifteen years old. [snorts, walks away carrying two pails of water] After thirty days, we'll take another look at the situation. Do you understand?"
David Axelrod: "Is she in there?"
Hugh Butterfield: "[warning tone] Don't you go in that house."
David Axelrod: "I'm going to talk to Jade. [Ann appears in the doorway]"
Hugh Butterfield: "[snarls at David] You get the hell outta here!"

Ann Butterfield: "What's that look?"
Hugh Butterfield: "David's here! I just caught them bare-assed in her room!"
Ann Butterfield: "[laid back] My God! I thought it was something awful. [sighs] You were meant to catch them, I'm sure."
Hugh Butterfield: "[fuming] She didn't even bat an eyelash."
Ann Butterfield: "[scoffs] You didn't raise her to be a hypocrite. [pulls curtain over doorway for privacy] You know he's been staying over, don't you? [gets surprised look] Yes, he hides in the house till they think we're asleep. And of course he scuttles away at dawn. They're rather sweet. Like bats. [smiles, imitating bats flying off]"
Hugh Butterfield: "[shaking head in dismay] I do not know what to do about this."
Ann Butterfield: "[ironic] I am so happy to hear you say that. You are always so definite with the children. Let's all be open about sex. [elementary gesture] Well, they certainly got the idea. They feel free to express love. It's worth all those awful frank discussions at the dining room table."
Hugh Butterfield: "[rising] We're not talking about morality."
Ann Butterfield: "I'm - - [interrupted]"
Hugh Butterfield: "This boy thinks he can come in here-..."
Ann Butterfield: "[insisting] They believed everything that we said. Imagine."
Hugh Butterfield: "A girl like that doesn't have to take the first guy who comes along."
Ann Butterfield: "Oh, I didn't realize we were saving her for somebody special."
Hugh Butterfield: "Oh..."
Ann Butterfield: "Are we saving her for someone rich?"
Hugh Butterfield: "God damn it! That's not fair! The girl is fifteen years old! Now when is she gonna study, when is she gonna sleep?"
Ann Butterfield: "Come on. You're the one that's always saying she's sleeping too much. I know it's difficult, but aren't you happy that she has someone? That someone finally had the courage to wake up Sleeping Beauty? [Disgruntled, Hugh takes a swig of orange juice] It had to happen, sooner or later. [Hugh mulls over, frowns, sighs deeply]"
