Quotes
-
Angela Moore : There is no relationship! You don't know what you're talking about.
Shawn Hunter : Hey, he told me, okay?
Angela Moore : Oh, no. How could you do that?
Shawn Hunter : How could *you've* not told me?
Angela Moore : That my mother walked out on me just like your mother walked out on you?
Shawn Hunter : Yes! Don't you think I would've understood? Don't you think that that would have brought us closer together?
Angela Moore : Yes! I don't want to be closer together!
Shawn Hunter : Why not?
Sergeant Moore : Yeah, why not?
Angela Moore : Because I don't want to hurt you.
Shawn Hunter : What are you talking about? You're already killing me. How are you going to hurt me more if you love me?
Angela Moore : I can't love you.
Shawn Hunter : Why not?
Angela Moore : [crying] Because.
Shawn Hunter : Because why?
Angela Moore : Because I'll leave you!
[She starts moving towards the stairs but Sergeant Moore stops her by grabbing her arms]
Sergeant Moore : No. Nuh-uh, nuh-uh no. Do *not* surrender to this! I did not raise a daughter to surrender!
[He takes her hands in his]
Sergeant Moore : You are not your mother. You're you! The difference between your mother and you, is that she was not in love. And you are.
Angela Moore : Daddy, I'm so sorry.
Sergeant Moore : It's okay. *I'm* okay. But this is about you. I just want you to be happy, but how can you ever be happy if you're afraid to tell the man you love that you love him?
[Angela walks back over to Shawn]
Angela Moore : I love you! I love you so much! I just don't want to hurt you anymore.
Shawn Hunter : I love you too. I always have.
Sergeant Moore : You take care of my daughter, young man.
Shawn Hunter : Sir, yes sir.

Sergeant Moore : What are you trying to prove, Hunter? Everybody else quit! One of your buddies is surrendering in the garbage can! You know, you are the one who dropped my daughter! Why are you working so hard to impress me? Why don't you impress your own father!
Shawn Hunter : My father's dead, sir!
Sergeant Moore : Well, impress your mother then!
Shawn Hunter : My mother's gone too, sir!
Sergeant Moore : Both your parents died, boy?
Shawn Hunter : My mother abandoned us, sir!
Sergeant Moore : What?
Shawn Hunter : Two times!
Sergeant Moore : Your mother walked out on your family?
Shawn Hunter : Yes, sir! She had some issues, sir!
Sergeant Moore : Relax, kid. We're just talking.
Shawn Hunter : It really tore my father up. We never really recovered. I-uh-I haven't trusted a relationship since then. Until Angela, sir.
Sergeant Moore : [exasperated] But she doesn't seem to like you, son.
