I wanna be the same as everybody else. Tru: But... if you were just the same as everybody else, you wouldn't get all that special help in school... and you wouldn't be allowed to rollerblade in the house, and... and you wouldn't be the... amazing... brother... that I love. Ginny: It's okay, everybody makes mistakes. Eddie: Except for God, right, Mom? If God made mistakes, the world would look like a kid did it. Eddie: Wow! Look at that! Tru: Eew! It's a gross, disgusting spider web. Eddie: No. It's perfect and beautiful and strong. Tru: If athletes get athlete's foot, what do astronauts get? Eddie: I don't know. Tru: Missile-toe. Eddie: Tru, are you mad at me? Tru: No. Of course not. Why? Eddie: You never play with me anymore. Tru: Sorry, Eddie. Eddie: It makes me sad.
