Kim Sertori
- Kim: [after the two boys got chased off] I cannot believe you just did that. That was so embarrassing!
- Cleo Sertori: What is going on? What are all these gifts for?
- Kim: It's Valentine's Day!
- Cleo Sertori: Go on, that doesn't mean you can behave like this!
- Kim: What do you care?
- Cleo Sertori: Because I have to. Because you're my little sister.
- Kim: Well, I'm not your 'little' sister anymore, okay? Besides, you're just jealous. What did Lewis get you? A bag of bait?
- Kim: I just wanna find out who likes me the most. And I've got it down to two. It's either Kyle or Corey.
- Cleo Sertori: I can't believe you're making them compete for you!
- Kim: Oh, you can't tell me what to do!
- [passes Dad on her way out]
- Kim: Tell her, Dad!
- Don Sertori: Tell her what? What's that all about?
- Cleo Sertori: Oh, Dad, I think it's time you had the talk.
- Don Sertori: The talk? What talk?
- Cleo Sertori: The talk.
- [sighs]
- Don Sertori: [wide-eyed as he realizes] That talk. I don't think so. The kid's not ready. Only yesterday she was... finger-painting and riding on ponies. And she's... my little girl.
- Cleo Sertori: [shakes her head] Not anymore...
- Cleo Sertori: [as Kim is busy reading texts on her cell] How did it go?
- Don Sertori: Great. I think I really got through to her. Oh, okay, it was
- [whispers:]
- Don Sertori: horrible. She already knew everything. You know they have a class at school for that?
- Cleo Sertori: Yeah.
- [chuckles]
- Don Sertori: It's not easy, you know. Your mother used to handle things like this.
- Cleo Sertori: Don't worry, Dad, you're doing a great job.
- Don Sertori: Mm. Yeah.
- [Kim snaps her phone shut]
- Don Sertori: Kim! Wait!
- [she's annoyed]
- Don Sertori: I... I want you to promise me you're not to bring those boys over again.
- Kim: But, Dad!
- Don Sertori: Not with either me or Cleo around.
- [Kim sighs]
- Don Sertori: Is that understood?
- [she hesitates, and he grabs her cell]
- Don Sertori: Maybe I'd just better hold on to this for a while.
- Kim: [scoffs] What? Dad, that's my phone, you can't do that!
- Don Sertori: Just for today. It's for the best. You'll see.
- Kim: [regains composure] Okay, I understand. I know you're just looking out for me.
- [with a smile:]
- Kim: And I promise I won't see those guys again.
- Don Sertori: Really? You won't?
- Kim: Of course not. Anything for you.
- [across the room, Cleo scoffs]
- Cleo Sertori: What was all that about?
- Kim: What? You don't believe me?
- Cleo Sertori: Oh, let me think. No.
- Kim: Right. I only said that to keep Dad happy.
- Cleo Sertori: Kim! If Dad catches you with any of those boys...
- Kim: Well, maybe I should be with Mom then.
- [gets up]
- Kim: I'm old enough to do what I want and you can't stop me!
- [goes off]
- Kim: You totally ruined my Valentine's Day.
- Cleo Sertori: And you wrecked mine, Kim.
- Kim: Sorry.
- [sighs]
- Kim: You're such a pain.
- Cleo Sertori: Yeah, you were.
- [sits down on bed]
- Kim: And so were you.
- Cleo Sertori: Okay, maybe I was a bit too. But why do it? Why try to get attention from all those boys?
- Kim: I guess I just wanted some excitement. When you started dating, you were always hanging out with your friends. Like you were hiding some big secret or something.
- [Cleo looks down]
- Kim: I guess I just felt left behind. When Mom left, it was even worse.
- Cleo Sertori: [shrugs, shakes her head] I'm sorry. I should have been there for you.
- [Kim smiles, and is about to go out the door:]
- Cleo Sertori: So who's it gonna be? Kyle or Corey?
- Kim: Uh, I don't know. They're both a bit boring, really.
- [Cleo smiles]
- Kim: But there is this one guy. He's really cute though. Timothy Wilkins. He's even started shaving his chin.
- Cleo Sertori: Oh, well, you should invite him over here.
- Kim: [smiling] Yeah.
- Cleo Sertori: But ask Dad first!
