- Paul Spector: [Stella reading from book left in her bedroom] Oh, Stella, how revealing. How exposing. It's all in these pages. Sweet little Stella missing her daddy, lost and alone. Sexy Stella, expressing her deepest, darkest desires. Stroppy Stella, angry and misunderstood, lashing out against the world of men. Oh, Stella Gibson, how well I know you now.
- Paul Spector: [when she writes down his license and registration plate] Fuck you, Stella. Fuck you. Fucking bitch.
