Daniel Coleman : [watching Esther neatly cut up her food] Can you eat normal?
Esther : I am eating normal.
Daniel Coleman : Yeah, maybe in Transylvania or whatever country you're from.
Esther : Incidentally, I'm from Russia. Transylvania isn't even a country. It's a part of Romania.
Daniel Coleman : You're such a freak.
Kate Coleman : Hey.
John Coleman : Hey, Danny... I don't want any more talk like that, all right?
Daniel Coleman : But why does she have to act like that? All my friends make fun of me because of her.
John Coleman : Maybe you need some different friends.
Daniel Coleman : Maybe you should send her back to the retard camp where she belongs.
Kate Coleman : Daniel.
John Coleman : Daniel! Apologize to your sister.
Daniel Coleman : She's not my *fucking* sister.

[Esther holds a box cutter to a sleeping Daniel's neck; he wakes up]
Esther : Shhhh...
[She grabs his hair and slams his head against the pillow]
Daniel Coleman : Ah!
Esther : Tell me what you saw.
Daniel Coleman : What are you doing?
Esther : What did you see?
Daniel Coleman : [crying] I saw you and Max in the treehouse...
Esther : [pulls his hair] What else?
Daniel Coleman : What do you mean?
Esther : What else did you see?
Daniel Coleman : Nothing, I didn't see anything else, I swear!
Esther : Did you tell anyone?
Daniel Coleman : No... I didn't tell anyone.
[as he cries, she moves the box cutter down between his legs]
Esther : If I find out that you're lying, I'll cut your hairless little prick off before you even figure out what it's for. Do you understand me?
Daniel Coleman : Yes...
[a dark stain appears on his pants]
Esther : You pissed yourself.

[Esther and Max walk up after Daniel has shot a pigeon with his paintball gun]
Esther : Did you kill it?
Daniel Coleman : [crying] It was just a paintball, I didn't think it'd hurt him...
[She picks up a big rock and holds it out to him]
Esther : Put it out of its misery.
[off his look]
Esther : It's in pain. And it's your responsibility.
Daniel Coleman : It was just an accident.
Esther : If you walk away now, it'll starve to death. Is that what you want?
[pause]
Daniel Coleman : I'm not doin' it...
[after a moment, she smashes the pigeon with the rock]
Esther : [to Max] It's all right. It's in Heaven now.
Daniel Coleman : What's wrong with you?

Trevor : Your sister's a total spaz.
Daniel Coleman : She's not my sister.

[as Daniel rummages through his treehouse, Esther suddenly enters behind him]
Esther : Are you looking for this?
[pulls the hammer and her bloody clothes from Max's backpack]
Esther : Poor Sister Abigail. I couldn't have done it myself, you know. Max is just as guilty as I am.
Daniel Coleman : Whatever Max did, you made her do it!
Esther : Think about it.
[pulls Max's drawings from her pocket]
Esther : How did she even know what was up here? It's always better to burn the evidence.
[begins spraying lighter fluid on the pile]
Esther : If they find these things, they won't just be coming for me. They'll be coming for Max, too.
[lights a match]
Esther : Is it really what you want?
Daniel Coleman : Wait!
[She drops the match and sprays more fluid all over the floor]
Daniel Coleman : What are you doing? Are you crazy?
