Gus : Sometimes comets are thought to be lost. And then they come back into orbit. And when they're calculated, scientists found that they weren't lost at all. They're found.

Gus : You know, sometimes comets are thought to be lost. And then they come back into orbit, and when they're calculated, scientists find they weren't lost at all. They're... they're found.
Molly : Can you just stop for one second? I wish I could freeze these moment so that I'd never forget it.
Gus : Me, too.

Gus : I can't live like this. I want my mind back. I need my mind.
Dr. Felton : That's our goal, Gus. We're starting some promising new trials, perhaps in a year...
Gus : I don't have a year. I haven't got a year. Look... Lucy's put this great system in place, and I'm so appreciative of that, sis, and the procedures that I have in place that help my life to work, but I have no continuity. I have no forward momentum. I have no progress. I... and how can I? Because every time I try to make something new, it-it... I can't. I can't hold onto it, I can't, and I need it, I need it. I need new. I need to connect to people, not just... Forget them every damn day. Please. Please, just make my... My mind work again.
Lucy : Gus, he can't.
Dr. Felton : Yet. We're not giving up. Anything's possible.
Gus : Fix me. Please.

Gus : I hate that I have to record our conversations, you know? But it's, like, she's gonna remember that. She's gonna remember what we did and what we said, and therefore, I need to remember all of it. Boyfriends need to remember stuff like that. Like, what kind of flowers girls like, or what dress they wore on our first date. Normal stuff.

Gus : Hey, Sam.
Sam : Hmm.
Gus : You okay?
Sam : Yeah... No. Uh, I'm missing a stone, That nice blue diamond. Have you see it? I think you were cleaning it the other day.
[Gus trying to remember it]
Sam : Gus, you were the last one to have it.
[Gus does not recall it]
Sam : Never mind. We'll find it. Listen, Mrs. Bing needs her brooch soon. Can you get to it?
Gus : Mrs. Bing?
Sam : Mrs. Bing is the lady who uses too much perfume.
Gus : Oh. Yeah, I wouldn't know.
Sam : Don't worry. When you smell her, you'll know her.

Jerry : [after listening to molly's voice on recorder pen] Remember Suzi Watkins? Fifth grade? She gave you all her valentines.
Gus : Suzi... what does that have to do with...
Jerry : Ellen Gazinski, junior year. She asked YOU to junior prom. I didn't even stand a chance until you moved to California. It was 12 years of school, watching women just fall into your lap, and what did I always get? I got a double feature at home with popcorn and my sister. And I even had a flat stomach back then. Even Brenda liked you better than me.

Gus : Hey, that's a really nice ring you got there with the rubies.
Molly : Oh, this one?
Gus : Yeah. You mind if I take a look at it?
Molly : Um, it's got half the stones missing.
Gus : So they are. But still, it's a really nice ring, and there's plenty of stones still in it.
Molly : It's my great-aunt's. Was. She had really great taste.
Gus : She certainly did. It's uh... It's an old Victorian setting. We rarely see these nowadays.
Molly : [Molly takes off the ring and points it to Gus] 50$.
Gus : I-I can't... I can't pay that.
Molly : Well, it's worth at least 50$. I mean, I kind of need the money.
[Gus opening cash drawer]
Gus : [Gus counting the money] Here.
Molly : [Molly takes and counts the money] 200$? No, I said 50$.
Gus : It's worth more than 50$ and I couldn't possibly pay you less.
Molly : I've lived here for almost three years. That's two cars, four apartments, three boyfriends and 360,000 strangers, And that is just one of the nicest things that anybody's done for me.
Gus : I don't know about that.
Molly : Thank you.
Gus : Wha... Um, I'm sorry. What was your name again?
Molly : Molly. I'm Molly. Thanks again.
Gus : Yeah, yeah, yeah Molly. Have a good day.
Molly : Yeah, you too.

Gus : [Gus' phone rings] Hey, Jerry.
Jerry : So, is she a dud? Don't-don't give it away. Just say yes or no.
Gus : Huh?
Jerry : Gus, where the hell are you?
Gus : Home.
Jerry : Are you serious? I knew it. Why are you at home?
Gus : I live here.
Jerry : Don't you know what tonight is?
Gus : Trash night?
Jerry : Gus, are you dressed? I want you in date-night clothes when I get there. I'm coming over.
-
Jerry : You blew this on purpose. Tell me you didn't blow this on purpose.
Gus : Jerry, I didn't know.
Jerry : That's not an excuse anymore!
Gus : No, it's not an excuse; it's a fact.
Jerry : Well, it's not acceptable anymore! Why do I even bother? Answer me that.
Gus : Because you're my best friend, and you've been since I was six years old.
Jerry : That's right. I'm just glad you didn't have to write that down this morning.
-
Gus : What if I'm better off without someone? Or maybe they'd be better off? Maybe this is just my brain protecting me.
Jerry : Or maybe you're just a total wuss. Go in. Look for her. Eat. Listen to her stories. Maybe you'll kiss her.
Gus : Jerry.
Jerry : What? If the whole thing goes belly up, you won't remember anything in the morning. What do you have to lose?
Gus : Valid point.
-
Gus : So, this is it?
Jerry : Same address as on her envelope.
Gus : Are you sure about this?
Jerry : Be contrite. Say "I'm sorry", hand her the roses and ask for another chance. Fourth floor, number 417. Gus?
Gus : What's your stake in all of it?
Jerry : One of us should have a love life, right?
Gus : What happened to Brenda?
Jerry : Get out of the car.
Gus : Bye.

Gus : [fixing Molly's car] Try it now.
Molly : [engine starts working] How'd you do that?
Gus : Uh, I got a knack for mechanical things.
Molly : Well, that would really come in handy around me.
Gus : I just wanted to say thanks for stopping me. I haven't really dated in a while. You know, with, uh, my work and everything.
Molly : Sure. I've been busy too. So your shop's doing great, huh?
Gus : My shop?
Molly : Your jewelry shop, where you work. Where we...
Gus : Oh, no! Uh, yeah. I mean, I-I work there. It's not... It's not my shop. The owners lived next door to my parents before they died. I just... I knew them when I was growing up around here.
Molly : Oh.
Gus : Do you want to go someplace else?
Molly : Sure.

Gus : [pointing to the stars] You see it now? Right there. Tell me. Can you see it? Can you see that?
Molly : It's a... teapot. No! No, it's a baby carriage. I see it. It's the... the wheel's right there, and then the... the bent part there, that's the... the buggy. Am I right?
Gus : Uh, no, but that's a great try. Uh, technically, it's the constellation Orion. It's, um, right ascension five hours, and then declination five degrees, Orion's Belt.
Molly : That's very technical stuff. Where... where did you come up with that?
Gus : Or it can be a baby carriage. I'm totally open to that interpretation.
Molly : It looks like a baby carriage!
Gus : I could, yeah, kind of. Not really.
Molly : Making stuff up.
-
Molly : So, hey, if the... if the universe is your thing, how come you're at the jewelry store?
Gus : Oh, that's a good question. Um, well, I used to work at Mount Wilson Observatory. It's in California. I don't know. Before that, NASA. Got my degree at Caltech.
Molly : So, why aren't you doing that?
Gus : Well, I, uh... Science is all around us, right? Like a diamond. And you look into a diamond, and it's... it's like its own little galaxy. Like, inside, the way light refracts through it in the right setting, it can be... gorgeous. Does this sound idiotic? I feel like I'm sounding idiotic.
Molly : Not when you say it.
Gus : Yeah. Oh! Look, look, look. See?
Molly : Oh, whoa! A shooting star!
Gus : Yes, yes! That's-that's right. Technically it's meteors, but yes, it's a shooting star. It's amazing, isn't it? The way that debris and dust from space could look so beautiful as it's burning up in the earth's atmosphere?
Molly : It is.
-
Jerry : Look... If you plan on telling this girl and keeping her, you got to romance her first, you know? Take her someplace razzle dazzle-y.
Gus : [laughing] Razzle dazzle.
Jerry : Yeah, razzle dazzle-y. I took a girl out a couple months ago. She loved it.
Gus : You're cheating on Brenda?
Jerry : Brenda is seeing someone else. We're divorced. It's been over a year now. Actually 14 months, 22 days, but who's counting? I'm so tired of telling you this story.
Gus : But Brenda was so great.
Jerry : I know, okay? Signing those divorce papers was the biggest mistake of my life. Why do you think I'm jogging?

Gus : [on the balcony adjusting his telescope] Okay, look right there
[pointing a comet in the sky]
Gus : . What do you see?
Molly : Oh. Is it a... meteor?
Gus : [looking through telescope] No. That is... Look right here.
[Molly's looking with telescope]
Gus : That is a comet. It's frozen gas and ice and dust that gets pulled by the gravity of the sun, but it's really the... the tail of it that distinguishes...
[Molly smiling at Gus]
Gus : What?
Molly : When you talk about this, it's... home. This is home to you.
Gus : I mean, it's kind of home for everybody. Really. where it all started. All of the elements in the universe, they... they all come from the stars, you know? It's-it's what makes us up. It's, um, the calcium in our bones and the iron in our blood. It was all born with the explosion that... that started it all. Like, you know, without the stars, we wouldn't have anything that we know today. Not you. Not me.
Molly : We're stardust.
Gus : Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, approximately 93%. Yeah.

Molly : My class! Oh, gosh, I'm late. I'm dead! My plan. I'm sorry. I'm an idiot. You know, I have this big presentation tonight. I got to go.
[gets out of the house in a rush, then runs back to Gus and kisses him]
Molly : Call me.
[takes Gus' cosmology book and gets out of the house again]
Gus : [while Molly is getting down the stairs] I will! Hey, I will! I will! I won't forget!
Molly : [closing the door] Bye!
Gus : [talking to himself] I won't forget.
[recording his voice]
Gus : That's it. Call Molly. Don't forget. Do not forget her. Do not forget Molly Branford. Set a date to tell her everything. No matter what.
