Robin Quote #246

Quote from Robin in Sandcastles in the Sand

Robin: Okay, you want the truth? I like Simon. I do. We have fun together.
Lily: Oh, we know you do, honey, but we're worried about you.
Robin: You're worried? Okay, hold on. Is there any version of this conversation where you guys don't sound like my parents?
Lily: I don't know. Is there any version where you don't sound like a 16-year-old?
Robin: That's exactly what my mom would say.
Lily: No. If I was your mom, I would say, "We forbid you from seeing this boy."
Robin: [high-pitched] Lily!
Lily: No, I'm sorry, but it's for your own good.
Robin: This is my life! You guys just don't get it! You've never felt the way that I feel!
Marshall: Now, now. We were once young and in love, too.
Robin: Yeah, like, a billion years ago.
Lily: You've been drinking, haven't you?
Robin: Yeah, we all have. You bought the last round.
Lily: You're not going to that show tonight!
Robin: Oh, yes, I am, and you know what else? Tonight, after the show, Simon and I are going all the way.
Lily: Young lady, get back here! [to Marshall] Thanks for your help.
Ted: Hey, so, today at work...
Marshall: Not now, Ted!

Quote from Robin

[Robin Sparkles, "Sandcastles in the Sand". Make It Sparkle. Dominant Records]
Robin: [singing] Met you at the mall. Didn't know how far ... My friends said I was a fool. You're a fool. [Shut up]. 'Cause you were a fool and got kicked out of school. [You're so rad.] Together we were gonna travel the globe. From Alberta to Ontario. And now I'm building sandcastles in the sand. [Sandcastles in the sand] Though I could fly when you held my hand. Thought I could fly [But now] Eternity returns to black and white. It was the greatest weekend and a half of my life. We used to go to the beach. On our favorite bench. We'd sit and talk and you taught me to French.
