Quotes
Jesse: Becky, I know why you're doing this. You're trying to get back at me for all the times I made you worry. Well, you know what? It worked; I'm worried. You win. Sit down, relax, have a muffin. (takes a muffin from the plate and puts it on the table)
Becky: Jess, this has nothing to do with you. I'm doing this for that little girl back in Nebraska - Lowboard Donaldson.
Jesse: (looks puzzled) Is that your cousin with the one eyebrow?
Becky: That's Celeste.
Jesse: Oh, oh, oh.
Becky: I'm Lowboard. When I was ten, I went to the public swimming pool with all my friends, and we decided we would jump off the high diving board. Well, I climbed all the way to the top, I took one look down, and I chickened out. By the time I got back down to the bottom, I had a new nickname: Lowboard.
Danny: You know, I can relate to that, actually. You won't believe this. I got my nickname at a swimming pool too - "Shallow End Tanner". (sighs) College sophomores can be so cruel. (Jesse and Becky give him looks)
