• Sylvia Guerrero : [to Eddie]  All that work to get you into a new school where kids wouldn't make fun of you. I just don't get it. Will you talk to me?

  Eddie : You don't wanna talk.

  Sylvia Guerrero : I'm asking...

  Eddie : But you don't. I see you working so hard to make us like everybody else.

  Sylvia Guerrero : No. To make you happy.

  Eddie : I hate my life, Mom. I hate it every single day!

  Sylvia Guerrero : Don't say that.

  Eddie : There's something wrong with me!

  Sylvia Guerrero : There is nothing wrong with you!

  Eddie : You see? You, I can't it no matter how hard I try, it's like everybody knows, so I'm not gonna hide it anymore just to be what you want to make me!

  [walks out of the room] 

  Sylvia Guerrero : [catches Eddie before walking down the hallway]  It's not what I want to make you. God made you!

  Eddie : If God made me, then God's a sadist.

  [walks away]
