Quotes 

• Derek Dietl : Wow. You're glowing.

  Susan Murphy : Thank you.

  Derek Dietl : No. No, Susan, you're, like, really glowing. You're green!

• Derek Dietl : Susan!

  Susan Murphy : Derek?

  Derek Dietl : Baby, I thought long and hard about what happened between us, and I want you to know, I forgive you.

  Susan Murphy : *You* forgive *me*?

  Derek Dietl : Of course. It wasn't your fault you got hit by a meteorite and ruined everything. And you know what? I say maybe you didn't ruin everything. I just got a call from New York. They offered me network. All I have to do is get an exclusive interview from you.

  Susan Murphy : Really?

  Derek Dietl : Yeah! I get my dream job, and you get your dream guy. It's a win-win for Team Dietl.

  Susan Murphy : Derek... that's amazing. Er, is the camera rolling?

  Derek Dietl : Absolutely.

  Susan Murphy : [picks up Derek]  Good, because I wouldn't want your fans out there to miss this. This is Susan Murphy saying, "Goodbye, Derek!"

  [she flicks him up in the air] 

  Susan Murphy : B.O.B., could you, er...?

  B.O.B. : [after catching Derek and spitting him out again]  Derek, you are a selfish jerk, and guess what? I've met someone else. She's lime green, she has 14 little chunks of pineapple inside of her, and she is everything I deserve in life! I'm happy now, Derek, without you. It's over.

  Derek Dietl : [deflated, to cameraman]  Turn it off.

• Derek Dietl : What's going on? What's happening here?

  Susan Murphy : You're all shrinking!

  Derek Dietl : Uh-uh. You're growing!

  Susan Murphy : Well, make it stop!

• Derek Dietl : Wow, you really are big.

  Susan Murphy : Yeah, but I'm still me. I'm still the same girl you fell in love with.

  Derek Dietl : Except you did just destroy the Golden Gate Bridge.

  Susan Murphy : Well, but that was the only way I was gonna stop that giant robot. Did you ever think I could do something like that?

  Derek Dietl : No, I didn't. I can honestly say that it never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever occurred to me.

• Susan Murphy : Look, I-I know this is a little weird. Okay - it's a lot weird. But we'll figure it out. I know that together, we can find a way to get me back to normal.

  Derek Dietl : Susan, try and look at this from my perspective. I have an audience that depends on me for news, weather, sports and heart-warming fluff pieces. So you expect me to put all that on hold while you try to undo this thing that happened to you, that I had absolutely nothing to do with?

  Susan Murphy : Yes. That's exactly what I expect. What-what about the life that we always talked about? Don't you still want that?

  Derek Dietl : Of course. I just... don't see how I can have that with you.

  Susan Murphy : [on the verge of tears]  Derek, please. Don't do this.

  Derek Dietl : Oh, y-you have to faced facts, Susan. And don't crush me for saying this, but I'm not looking to get married and spend the rest of my life in someone else's shadow. And you're casting a pretty big shadow. I'm sorry. It's over. Good luck, Susan.
