Blair: My, my. If it isn't little J., risen from the ashes.
Jenny: I came to tell you in person ...you win.
Blair: Oh, sweetie. We just started to play.
Jenny: No, you don't understand. I'm done … with you, with them, with all of it.
Blair: Just like that, you wave the white flag?
Jenny: I lied, and I stole, and I lost the respect of my family ... for what? So I can be like you? You asked me before if it was all worth it. My answer is, it's not.
Blair: I tried to warn you ... there's a price to pay. I always knew a girl like you couldn't afford it.
Jenny: Well, you were right.
Blair: Well, you put up a good fight ...for a freshman.
Jenny: Thanks.
Blair: I hope you don't expect a hug.
Jenny: I don't expect anything any more.

汉语翻译

Blair: 瞧瞧，这不是小J死后重生了吗？
Jenny: 我亲自来告诉你你赢了。
Blair: 亲爱的，我们才刚刚开始。
Jenny: 不，你不明白。我受够了……受够了你，他们，还有所有的一切。
Blair: 你就这样举白旗了吗？
Jenny: 我说谎，我偷窃，我失去了家人对我的尊重…… 为了什么？为了能像你一样吗？之前你问我这样做是否值得，我的答案是，不值得。
Blair: 我试过警告你……这就是代价。我认识许多你这样玩不起的女孩。
Jenny: 是啊，你是对的。
Blair: 你作为一年级新生来说倒是抗衡得如此顽强。
Jenny: 谢谢。
Blair: 你该不会想跟我来个拥抱吧？
Jenny: 我再也不期待任何事情。
