Quotes 

• Spencer Carlin : [to Glen]  It's offical, you're an ass.

• Spencer Carlin : Hey.

  Aiden Dennison : Hey.

  Ashley Davies : I'm so excited. My Dad's finally gonna be able to see me play.

  Spencer Carlin : I can't believe he's never seen you do that before.

  Ashley Davies : Well, he's always been on the road with his band, so.

  Spencer Carlin : Well we'll be there and try to bring some people.

  Ashley Davies : I don't care who comes, as long as you guys are there.

  Aiden Dennison : We'll be your own personal fans. We'll rush the front of the stage and get all crazy and scream and yell and fling ourselves on stage!

  Spencer Carlin : I've always wanted to be a groupie! No wait, thats's not true. But I've always wanted to know someone in a band.

  Ashley Davies : [laughing]  You've gotta aim higher, Spence.

• Ashley Davies : [in Ashley's room]  Now, I want my outfit to have the right blend of rocker-smokin'-sexiness and uh I'm-no-slave-to-fashion attitude.

  Spencer Carlin : Shouldn't be hard - that's what you look like every day.

  [Ashley shows Spencer the outfit] 

  Spencer Carlin : I think it's perfect. As long as you plan to accessorize... with a shirt.

  Ashley Davies : You are such a strange girl.

  Spencer Carlin : You would know!

  [See's Ashley thinking about something] 

  Spencer Carlin : What?

  Ashley Davies : I'm nervous about my Dad seeing me play. I've tried so hard to be good at what he's great at... and I just don't think it's going to be enough.

  Spencer Carlin : Are you kidding? He's going to be so proud of you.

  Ashley Davies : I hope... we just don't have the closest relationship. I had to go through his road manager in order to invite him to the show, which pretty much defines my entire childhood with him. Anytime I wanted to figure something out about his life, I had to look to a "Rolling Stones" magazine. And he knows even less about mine.

  Spencer Carlin : Sorry... that sucks. But, I mean he is coming. Maybe he wants to make up for lost time, fix it.

  Ashley Davies : Maybe...

• Ashley Davies : So, on Saturday, you guys will should just meet me at Gray. Your names will be on the list.

  Aiden Dennison : Spencer, do you want me to pick you up?

  Spencer Carlin : Yeah.

  Madison Duarte : Desperately, I'm sure. I need to talk to you... alone.

  Ashley Davies : Aw, you better get used to that whole alone thing, 'cause your boy... he's moving on.

  Madison Duarte : Bite me Queer Eye.

  Ashley Davies : Not if you were the last Barbie on Earth.

  Madison Duarte : So, I have a fabulous idea. Saturday night you and I are going to have a wicked hot date, which we desperately need. Sherry's uncle's the might manager at the Fairfax Suites and he'll het us a great room.

  Aiden Dennison : Saturday?

  Madison Duarte : Yeah, but when you see what I'm wearing, you'll forget what day it is, I swear.

  Aiden Dennison : Sounds great. But can we do it another night? I've kind of got some plans I don't wan't to break.

  Madison Duarte : Excuse me! I don't take rainchecks. Let me guess, you're doing something with the Ellen twins.

  Aiden Dennison : Spencer is not gay.

  Madison Duarte : No? Because I'm starting to wonder about you, so you better get busy baby, or someone else will be fringing my benefits.

  Aiden Dennison : [chuckles]  I'll take my chances.

• Spencer Carlin : You're not that old.

  [referring to Aiden's age on his ID] 

  Spencer Carlin : .

  Aiden Dennison : I am tonight!

  Ashley Davies : Hey! You guys made it.

  Spencer Carlin : Wow, you look great. Are you ready?

  Ashley Davies : As ready as I'm gonna be. I told Bernie to put me up at the end of her set, my Dad's going to be late. He likes to slip in after the show starts, he doesn't want to steal anyone's thunder.

  Aiden Dennison : [Ordering drinks at the bar]  Two vodka cranberries.

  Cat : Okay, you're good. Now who's the other one for?

  Aiden Dennison : Girl at the end of the bar.

  [Spencer waves] 

  Aiden Dennison : .

  Cat : She's cute. And a minor. So you better behave, or I'll take a closer look at your ID.

  Aiden Dennison : Sorry, yours is a virgin.

  Ashley Davies : It doesn't have to be. I am so a better friend. Here, have some of my poison.

  Aiden Dennison : To Ashley.

  [Spencer coughs after taking a sip of her drink] 

  Aiden Dennison : .

  Ashley Davies : I'm gonna head over to the stage. Talk to the sound guy and try not to be nervous. Here, save some for me.

  [Spencer and Aiden start slow dancing] 

  Ashley Davies : .

• Spencer Carlin : What?

  Ashley Davies : Okay! stop. You're drunk right now and I cannot take care of you.

  Spencer Carlin : I don't need anyone to take care of me...

  [stumbles backwards as Ashley grabs her to make sure she doesn't fall] 

  Spencer Carlin : .

  Ashley Davies : Right, You know what, you're the one who's supposed to be taking care of me right now. My Dad hasn't even shown up yet and I'm starting to wonder if he ever will. It just sucks, okay?

  Spencer Carlin : Ash, you're Dad's not a no-show, you said he's always late. Just don't give up, okay?

  Ashley Davies : Yeah, whatever, look, I'll meet you out there. I have to get it together before I go on stage,

  Spencer Carlin : You'll be great. You'll be great.

  [Spencer kisses Ashley on her cheek] 

  Spencer Carlin : .

  Ashley Davies : [Calling her Dad on her cell phone]  Hey Dad, it's me, Ashley. I'm just calling to check in on you, it's like ten o'clock and I go on in fifteen minutes. Okay, well, I hope to see you soon all right, bye.

• Aiden Dennison : Hey.

  Spencer Carlin : Hey.

  Aiden Dennison : How are you feeling? How was the rest of your weekend?

  Spencer Carlin : Other than being sick for the last two days and being grounded for the next seven, I'd say it's awesome.

  Aiden Dennison : I'm sorry about that I kind of feel responsible.

  Spencer Carlin : Yeah, you and my fling with with Ashley's flask. What was I thinking?

  Aiden Dennison : After three shots you weren't.

  Spencer Carlin : So did I do anything with you that I should be embarrassed about?

  Aiden Dennison : No, not at all. I mean, it was great until you passed out.

  [Spencer and Aiden laugh] 

  Aiden Dennison : .

  Spencer Carlin : I'm so mortified.

  Aiden Dennison : Nah, don't be. We're okay.

  Spencer Carlin : Thanks. I just wish it was okay with Ashley.

  Aiden Dennison : You want me to go with you, help you explain?

  Spencer Carlin : No, this one's mines. Thanks I'll see ya.

  Aiden Dennison : Later.

• Ashley Davies : I want my flask back.

  Spencer Carlin : Fine. The smell alone starts up the yak-fest again.

  Ashley Davies : Well, at least you had Aiden to hold your hair back.

  Spencer Carlin : Listen, about Aiden, I don't...

  Ashley Davies : Don't explain, I get it, I've been there with him.

  Spencer Carlin : We're not together. I was drunk and stupid, and after the way I acted I'm lucky that we're still friends. You and I still friends?

  Ashley Davies : I could use a friend I can count on in my life. There are enough people who I can't.

  Spencer Carlin : But you can count on me, I promise. Please don't let Saturday night ruin us, okay? Forgive me?

  Ashley Davies : Forgiven, but you're on probation.

  Spencer Carlin : I'll be better, I promise.

  Ashley Davies : I've been hearing that alot lately. Here, listen to this. It's my Dad's new album.
