Lucas: I love Brooke, Skills.
Skills: I know you love her. So what, you gonna try and get her back?
Lucas: Yeah.
Skills: Hmm... I'm not too sure that's the way to do it, but hey. (to Peyton): Wassup home wrecker!?

Skills: So, Brooke just broke up with ya?
Lucas: Yup.
Skills: Man, that's cold dawg.
Lucas: Oh yeah.
Skills: Although you did kiss Peyton.
Lucas: You want me to get you a tryout with the Ravens, or what?
Skills: Yes I do. But, that still don't mean you didn't kiss Peyton.

Because it's only when you're tested that you truly discover who you are. And it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be. The person that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the HEARTACHE and fear of what life has.

But once in a while people push on to something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. Or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quite persistence of a dream.

There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a road map. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.

My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. I play basketball -- at least I used to. I have a girlfriend -- at least I used to. And I have a best friend. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world, maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their place. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling's a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes. Someone to help us hear the music in the world, to remind us that it won't always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you.

Lucas: Brooke kind of found out that I kissed Peyton, again.
Skills: Well, it's a good thing you're in a hospital; 'cause your sorry ass in bad shape bro.

Karen: We need to talk about this pregnancy.
Lucas: Keith would be so happy. I mean I can't believe you're having his baby.
Karen: I'm not talking about that pregnancy. Whose test did you find at the reception? Was it Brooke's?
Lucas: I'm not sure yet.
Karen: I'm your mother Lucas, and considering that I was pregnant at 17. I just want to know if history is repeating itself with my son and his girlfriend.

Peyton Sawyer is a good friend. Brooke Davis is my girlfriend. At least, for now she is.

Things that take 14 minutes - boiling an ostrich egg, Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video. It also takes 14 minutes to get from the Melina bridge to Tree Hill hospital.

My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world. Maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Or someone like my best friend, Haley. If you're married, a senior in high school, and not sure if your husband is still alive, then I'd say your world is a lot like Haley's. Today was supposed to be the best day of her life. But it's amazing how things can change in the blink of an eye. Or, in this case, in 29 minutes.

Haley: We're going to London for a few days.
Lucas: Why, doesn't it always rain there?
Nathan: Oh yea!
