- Elena Richardson: [She grabs Izzy's shirt violently after seeing a canister of gasoline in her room] What is the matter with you?
- Izzy Richardson: [She forcefully pushes back] GET OFF OF ME!
- [She looks sad, perhaps frightened]
- Elena Richardson: [Still angry] You need professional help! This infatuation with Mia, this crush...
- Izzy Richardson: [she explodes with anger and sadness] IT'S NOT A CRUSH! That was April! She was my girlfriend for a fucking year!
- [She is nearly crying]
- Izzy Richardson: Mia was the one person who actually cared about me!
- [She is angry now]
- Izzy Richardson: I just wanted her to be my mom. A mom who actually loved me! A mom who is NOTHING LIKE YOU.
- Elena Richardson: [She gets in Izzy's face, furious] Do you think I wanted a daughter like you? I NEVER WANTED YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE!
- Lexie Richardson: [Horrified] Mom!
- [Izzy looks shattered, while Trip is shocked, and Moody looks on at Elena in disgust]
- Lexie Richardson: [Elena leaves Izzy's room. She follows] Mom! What are you doing?
- [She grabs Elena's arm with force]
- Lexie Richardson: MOM!
- Elena Richardson: [She looks worn out, facing Lexie] What? What am I supposed to do?
- Lexie Richardson: I want you to fix it!
- Trip Richardson: [He comes upstairs with Moody, desperate] She's gone!
- Lexie Richardson: [She's begging now] Mom, go after her! Do something!
- Elena Richardson: [Coldly] Let her chase after Mia.
- [She turns to go to her bedroom]
- Elena Richardson: They deserve each other.
- Moody Richardson: [He is begging, close to tears] Mom, please!
- Lexie Richardson: [She is now disgusted] You think Izzy's the fuck up in this family, but she's not! I am.
- [Elena stops in her tracks]
- Lexie Richardson: I used Pearl. I stole her story to get into Yale. I wrote her name down at the clinic, mom!
- [Elena turns to meet Lexie's gaze, possibly in shock]
- Lexie Richardson: I got pregnant. I got the abortion, not her! And, I mean I tried... I really tried to tell you everything. There's all this pressure to be all these things, to be fucking perfect, but I'm not. I'm not FUCKING PERFECT.
- Elena Richardson: [She explodes in Lexie's face with an inhuman shriek] YES YOU ARE!
- [She retreats and slams the door to her room]
- Lexie Richardson: [She is furious now. She yells back at the closed door] NO, I'M NOT!
- [With an inhuman shriek, she storms back into Izzy's room, Trip and Moody behind her]
