Lucas: Look, you know what Skills? For a long time I thought that maybe we'd be something more. It just never seemed to work out, you know? So, at a certan point you just gotta face the fact that it's not meant to be.
Skills: Even if she wants more?
Lucas: She's just a little confused. She's had a hard year and I happened to be her rescuer a few times.
Skills: So maybe you the one who's confused! Cause you didn't just happen to rescue her a few times. You didn't just happen to run into the school that day or save her from Pscyho-Derek. Peyton happened to be there, but you chose to be there. So, maybe you gotta think about that.

Skills: You said "Oh!"? Hold on. Peyton says "I'm in love with you" and you say "Oh"? Nice work player!
Lucas: She caught me by surprise, what was I supposed to say, huh?
Skills: Not "Oh". Ok, what else did you say?
Lucas: Uh... I mumbled something about us being friends and then I left.
Skills: And you believe that? That you and P. Sawyer are just friends!?

Lucas: Listen I just wanted to say I'm sorry that we didn't get to spend more time together tonight.
Peyton: How'd it go with Brooke?
Lucas: I realized tonight that it's over between me and Brooke and she realized it, too.
Peyton: I love you Lucas.
Lucas: I love you too Peyton.
Peyton: You don't understand. I've been holding this in for a really long time... I just need you to know. I love you... I'm in love with you.
Lucas: Oh.

Haley: Rachel. Asked me. To tutor her.
Lucas: You're tutoring Rachel?
Haley: Hell no, I said she asked me.

Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small , like when we do a bad thing, for a good reason. Some are bigger, like when we let down a friend. Some of us escape the pains of regret by making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret, because we're looking forward to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past. And sometimes we bury our regret, by promising to change our ways. But our biggest regrets are not for the things we did... but the things we didn't do. The things we didn't say that could save someone we care about. Especially when we can see the dark storm that's headed their way.

Lucas

Nathan: I wanna say thanks. I know how hard it was for you to throw those points away. Look, I'll make it up to you and the team at State okay? Point shaving was just a one time thing... it's over now.
Lucas: Nathan... you know I'll always be there for you. But, never again.

Hayley: You've been so supportive of me and my dream for music, so I just wanna be supportive of you and your dream for playing at Duke. So I wanna do this for us, okay?
Nathan: How did I get so lucky?
Haley: It helps that you're hot.

Nathan: Hey! Come on... (Nathan pulls her down.)
Hayley: Hey! I was getting that.
Nathan: You shouldn't be straining yourself. You can't risk falling and stuff.
Haley: Relax, I'm pregnant, not elderly.

Lucas: Skills, this is Peyton's brother, Derek.
Skills: Damn... who would've guessed that Peyton's brother... was a brother.
Derek: Lance Corporal Sommers.
Skills: Big Daddy Skills.

Skills: So let me get this straight, you and Peyton just friends right?
Lucas: Uh-huh.
Skills (holds up pair of ladies underwear): I wish I had friends like that.

You know, it took every ounce of strength your mother has to come in here and ask me to take you back. She loves you that much, enough to put your dreams ahead of her fears. You've got fifteen minutes a game to make her proud... and a lifetime to make them both proud.

Whitey (to Lucas)

Lucas: This is Keith's number.
Whitey: Yup, and I'm pretty sure he'd want you to have it.

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.
