Quotes 

• Lucas : There's something I have to tell you. You should sit.

  Karen Roe : Okay. I think I'll stand.

  Lucas : This is gonna hurt you, Mom. And I'm sorry.

  Karen Roe : What happened?

  Lucas : Brooke's pregnant.

  Karen Roe : [she slaps him]  Oh, my God, Lucas. I'm so sorry.

  Lucas : I guess I deserved that. Stupid...

  [he walks off] 

• Karen Roe : [after finding out Brooke is pregnant, Karen has slapped Lucas]  Lucas! I didn't mean it.

  Lucas : I'm pretty sure you did.

  Karen Roe : No! It's just - do you understand? This is *exactly* what I didn't want for you! I mean, have I been talking to myself for the last few years? You have so much left to do in life! So does Brooke. Oh God, you're both just too young for this.

  Lucas : Don't cry, Mom.

  Karen Roe : It's just that I'm scared for you. I can't believe this is happening.

• Lucas : How close was I to not existing? Dan wanted an abortion, Mom. Why didn't you listen to him?

  Karen Roe : Because I realized... I wanted you in my future.
