Oh, I can’t wait ‘til I’m seventeen.

Question 2

ANGUS: Look who found the comfiest bed in the house!

Answer 2

Morning, Mr. Angus.

Question 3

ANGUS: Mornin’. Did you get any sleep?

Answer 3

Not exactly.

Question 4

JESSE: It was fine.

Answer 4

Jesse’s being modest. It was the most fun I’ve had in at least a year, and -

Question 5

JESSE: Winnie, cut it out.

Answer 5

What?

Question 6

ANGUS: Where is he now?

Answer 6

We lost him, I’m sure we did.

Question 7

ANGUS: We’ll have to leave our cottage - maybe for good this time.

Answer 7

I could come with you!

Question 8

ANGUS: This is my fault. I never should have taken us to Treegap Wood in the first place.

Answer 8

But then you wouldn’t have found the spring!

Question 9

MAE: Honey, that’s entirely his point.

Answer 9

But the spring is a miracle! I’d drink from it right now - but Jesse wants me to wait.

Question 10

ANGUS: Well, now you’ve upset your mother. Say your goodbyes.

Answer 10

Did I do something wrong?

Question 11

JESSE: Never.

Answer 11

Do you still mean what you said, at the silo? About the water I can keep ‘til I’m seventeen?

Question 12

MILES: Why don’t I smell pancakes? The kid must be starving! Where’s Ma and Pa?

Answer 12

They’re outside. I think I made them mad.

Question 13

MILES: Why are you wearing those clothes? Where did she get Thomas’ clothes?

Answer 13

Who’s Thomas?

Question 14

MILES: Jesse, even for you, this is a new level of selfish.

Answer 14

No, it’s not! I want to see the Eiffel Tower! I want to see the Egyptian pyramids!

Question 15

JESSE: I already feel like I’m serving a life sentence, Miles! I’d rather do my time next to somebody who actually appreciates it!

Answer 15

Miles, who’s Thomas?

Question 16

MILES: I don’t talk about him.

Answer 16

Then why did you say his name?

Question 17

MILES: He was my son.

Answer 17

Is he still alive?

Question 18

MILES: I don’t know. My wife took him from me.

Answer 18

Did they drink the water?

Question 19

MILES: No. By the time I figured out the secret of the spring, the years had passed for them, but not for me. She thought I was possessed. A freak.

Answer 19

I don’t think you’re a freak.

Question 20

MILES: It’s time we got you home to your own family.

Answer 20

Can’t I stay just a little longer?

Question 21

MILES: I’M LEFT WITH NOTHING NOTHING BUT TIME

Answer 21

Miles, I don’t have a father anymore.

Question 22

MILES: You don’t?

Answer 22

No. But I’ll always love him, for the rest of my life. And I promise Thomas will love you, for the rest of his.
