Quotes 

• Melinda Gordon : [Melinda holds Jim's shirt to her face]  You tried. And I will *never* forget that.

  Delia Banks : [Delia bursts in]  If you never forgive me I will understand, but I couldn't just sit around and do nothing when this whole thing was ready to blow away.

  Melinda Gordon : Whole thing? What are you talking about?

  Delia Banks : You and Jim, your future together, your whole... everything!

  Melinda Gordon : Are you drunk?

  Delia Banks : There is no time to explain, Mel. He's out back.

  Melinda Gordon : Who?

  Delia Banks : Jim. I mean Sam. Jim. Sam. Whatever the hell his name is! But I convinced him to come back and talk to you, but you have to figure out what to do next.

  Melinda Gordon : Where did you...?

  Delia Banks : He was on the basketball court on the way out of town. I saw him. I stopped and I convinced him to come back and talk to you.

  Melinda Gordon : *Why* did you?

  Delia Banks : Because he was waiting for Ned. And I finally understood.

  Melinda Gordon : What?

  Delia Banks : That I was wrong, ok, about pretty much everything. And I know that we're going to talk about this endlessly in the future, but right now you have to go outside and make sure that Jim does not get back on that road and go out of town.

  Melinda Gordon : You keep calling him Jim.

  Delia Banks : That's who he is, isn't he?

  Melinda Gordon : [Nods her head] 

  Delia Banks : Ok, stop, go. It's ok.

  Melinda Gordon : Got my best friend back.

  [They hug] 

• Delia Banks : You got any lip gloss?

  Melinda Gordon : It's Jim, I don't need lip gloss.

  Delia Banks : Do you know how lucky you are? You are gonna get a second shot at your one true love.

• [Delia exposes Melinda's cleavage so "handyman" Jim/Sam would be seduced not to have a life without Melinda] 

  Melinda Gordon : Delia!

  Delia Banks : You know, there was a stain on it. You've got to really be presentable.

• Gerald Lucas : [Opens door]  Oh, Melinda.

  Nancy Lucas : Is she here? Where's Sam? Where did you send him?

  Melinda Gordon : I don't know.

  Nancy Lucas : Oh terrific! The boy can't remember a damn thing and now he's out wandering all alone. Do you really think that's what he needs?

  Melinda Gordon : No, actually, I wanted him to stay.

  Nancy Lucas : What are we supposed to do now?

  Melinda Gordon : I have no idea. But if he ever gives you a second chance I hope you don't blow it like you did the first time.

  Gerald Lucas : I beg your pardon?

  Melinda Gordon : I know what it's like to lose someone, and to not know if it's for good. I *know* that impulse to do everything humanly possible - just to get them back. Sometimes impulses are wrong.

  Nancy Lucas : Are you a parent?

  Melinda Gordon : No. And I'm not a doctor either. But believe me when I say that you have to start preparing yourself for the fact that your son may never remember who he was...

  Gerald Lucas : Look, Miss Gordon...

  Melinda Gordon : ...and you should be grateful for that, you know why? Because you'll actually *have* a son. At some point he's going to need his family and he *will* call. But all he's going to remember is who you are now, so wouldn't you want that to be a good thing?

  Nancy Lucas : What is that supposed to mean exactly?

  Melinda Gordon : You've held on to your children so tight that you've lost them both. But there is still time to maybe get them back - but not if you keep making the same mistakes.
