#IRegretNothing (2017)

Jamie Bloch: Yael Baron

Quotes 

• Yael Baron : [to Lola]  Our presentation is tomorrow. God, you are so irresponsible!

  Lola Pacini : Chill! It's just a stupid project.

  Yael Baron : It's worth 50% of our grade. What could be more important than that?

  Lola Pacini : [near tears]  I'm getting an abortion.

  [Yael looks shocked; Lola sniffles] 

  Lola Pacini : Maybe I can get a doctor's note or something, but I'll make sure you don't lose marks for my stupid mistake.

  Yael Baron : Do you have somebody to go with you?

  [Lola shakes her head no] 

  Yael Baron : Then let's call an Uber.

• Yael Baron : [to Lola]  The car will be here in a minute.

  Lola Pacini : You know, I didn't just decide to get an abortion.

  Yael Baron : Okay.

  Lola Pacini : I've thought about it. A lot. And I spent hours researching it online.

  Yael Baron : Did you talk to your parents? Parent.

  Lola Pacini : Mom's gone-zo.

  [chuckles] 

  Lola Pacini : My dad's great, but super traditional. Besides, there's nothing to talk about. I'm not ready to be a mom and there's no way I'm walking around school pregnant for nine months.

  Yael Baron : But you you only found out you were pregnant yesterday, right? I mean, that still gives you time to change your mind.

  Lola Pacini : I decided two weeks ago when I thought I might be pregnant.

  [sighs] 

  Lola Pacini : What would you do?

  Yael Baron : I don't think it really matters right now.

  Lola Pacini : I just want this to be over with so that I can get on with my life.

  Yael Baron : [sighs]  Well, then, maybe there's your answer.

• Lola Pacini : [to Yael]  Do you think I'm a bad person?

  Yael Baron : Because you made a difficult decision?

  Lola Pacini : It wasn't difficult for me. Scary, yeah, but...

  [inhales sharply] 

  Lola Pacini : not difficult. And afterwards, I... I didn't feel sad.

  Yael Baron : Well, I mean, that's good, isn't it?

  Lola Pacini : Except now I feel bad for not feeling sad.

  [holds up her phone] 

  Lola Pacini : I've been staring at this photo all afternoon.

  [sighs] 

  Lola Pacini : I feel nothing except the desire to tweeze her unibrow.

  Yael Baron : Well, doesn't that mean you just made the right choice?

  Lola Pacini : [sighs]  Frankie and Shay don't agree. They think I'm a murderer.

  Yael Baron : They said that?

  Lola Pacini : I can barely handle my roots. How could I possibly handle a baby?

  Yael Baron : A lot of women would support you. I mean, Nicki Minaj had an abortion in high school.

  Lola Pacini : Really?

  Yael Baron : The point is, a lot of women have abortions and feel no shame.

  Lola Pacini : I feel like I'm the first.

  Yael Baron : Yeah, because the world makes everybody too scared to talk about it.

  Lola Pacini : Well, they should talk about it.

  Yael Baron : Maybe you could.
