You Can't Win 'em All (2013)

Shenae Grimes-Beech: Annie Wilson

Quotes 

• Mark Holland : You know that ex-wife I don't like to talk about? We sort of have two kids.

  Naomi Clark : What?

  Annie Wilson : And like your probation, that just didn't come up?

  Naomi Clark : Okay, you know what? I... I am an amazing aunt. Like, the greatest one in the world. Why would you deprive your children of me?

  Mark Holland : Because I'm a lousy father. This weekend is their eleventh birthday. I promised them a special day, and I'm missing it.

  Annie Wilson : Well, that's not your fault, Mark.

  Naomi Clark : It's Annie's.

• Annie Wilson : Liam, I never meant to...

  Liam Court : Lie to me? Use me? Join the club. Apparently, it's what I'm here for.

  Annie Wilson : I didn't lie to you. I just didn't tell you about the book because it was personal. Writing it had nothing to do with you.

  Liam Court : Then why am I getting fan mail for the Leo the brooding loner?

  Annie Wilson : Because I write compelling characters? I'm sorry.

  Liam Court : You should be sorry that you ruined my life.

  Annie Wilson : And how exactly did I ruin your life?

  Liam Court : By being in it.

  Annie Wilson : Okay, look, I told the truth, and I stood up to Patrick because it was the right thing to do. I hate that people I care about got hurt, but I'm gonna fix it.

  Liam Court : Don't. Because everything you do just makes things worse.

• Annie Wilson : Mark's lawyer needs access to sealed files in the D.A.'s office, but that would take an act of God or one word from someone like your mother. By the way, your sister stopped by this morning and wants to know why you won't return your mom's calls.

  Jordan Welland : Yeah, you don't understand.

  Annie Wilson : You're right. Uh, your family wants to help my brother, and you said no. I don't understand.

  Jordan Welland : The only person my mother helps is herself, and she doesn't do favors without expecting something in return. I mean, it'd be like making a deal with the devil, Annie. Believe me, you don't know my family.

  Annie Wilson : But I know mine. Mark could go to jail. And if that happens, I will never forgive myself, and Naomi will never forgive you. So if that means making a deal and spending Christmas at grandma's next year, then I think that's a pretty fair trade for the most important person in Naomi's life.

• Annie Wilson : You missed the celebration. Mark's gonna be okay. Those kids aren't gonna lose their dad.

  Liam Court : No thanks to me.

  Annie Wilson : Well, moving to Vermont isn't the end of the world.

  Liam Court : It is to Naomi. I did what I thought was right, and it blew up someone's life. Sound familiar?

  Annie Wilson : But you didn't mean for anybody to get hurt, so eventually people will get over it and move on. Right?

  Liam Court : That's what I wanna do, too.

  Annie Wilson : I am so glad that you said that, because I really am so sorry. And I-I will set up a million meetings with surf stars for you to sponsor if that's what it takes.

  Liam Court : That's... that's not what I meant. I... Sydney came to me tonight. She made me realize that sometimes the best way to get past mistakes is to hit the reset button and start over. And so that's what we're gonna do. Annie, I... I want you to buy the Offshore so that me and Sydney can move to Australia.
