Quotes
Gina: [Kevin enters the room wearing a paper bag on his head with Surly Steve's face on it] Very cute Kevin, or should I call you Steve, or oh wait, maybe Cameron.
Kevin: Just hear me out for a minute.
Gina: I don't have time to hear you out. I'm going to a party tonight and I need to get ready.
Kevin: Gina, please.
Gina: Kevin, you humiliated me, in front of everyone! The one person I trusted above everyone lied to me! How do you think that made me feel?
Kevin: Not nearly as bad as it made me feel doing it.
Gina: Oh, bullshit.
Kevin: You were the one that e-mailed Surly Steve, I didn't go seeking you out!
Gina: Why did you create him to begin with and why didn't you come clean when I e-mailed you?
Kevin: You wanna know why? You wanna know why? Because for the first time in my life, I felt you saw me outside of the friend zone! I mean I had a chance with you. And as much as i knew it was wrong to do, I-I didn't wanna tell you the truth cause I liked the way you saw me when I was someone else.
Gina: Weren't you someone else?
Kevin: I *looked* like somebody else! Okay? But every thought, every joke, every word, those were mine! Not Cameron's, mine! And you know what's really funny? You liked that guy. You wanted to be with that guy. He was the perfect guy! Your words.
Gina: The perfect guy that *you* invented.
Kevin: I have news for you, okay? Nothing in this life comes in a perfect package.
Gina: Oh, *you* made that quite clear.
Kevin: C'mon Gina, I mean I know I hurt you. And you can't ever imagine how sorry I am for doing that. But just, answer me one question, do me a favor please. Tell me, What the hell was so damn attractive about Steve to begin with huh? Was it his looks? Or his personality?
Gina: [Gina walks over and grabs the bag with Surly Steve's face on it, pulling it off Kevin's head] What are you trying to prove to me by wearing this anyways?
Kevin: I want you to admit to me that the only thing that's standing in the way of us being together is the fact that i don't look like Cameron. And you know what? If it takes wearing a stupid mask in order for you to see that I am exactly the person for you, I'll wear a damn bag on my head for the rest of my life! I want *you* Gina. And I know somewhere deep down beyond all the superficial bullshit that you want me too.
Kevin: [Gina kisses Kevin] I'm not quite sure how to respond to that.
Gina: It's not the kind of the superficial bullshit you think. I spend my entire life thinking that in order to be happy, I needed a fairy tale romance. To have someone sweep me off my feet, to feel crazy, passionate, love, I thought I could only feel that with someone new but now I feel I relive I might be wrong because of everything you said about Steve was true. You just blew *all* of those ridiculous notions out the window.
Kevin: Everything was true. Except for the whole part about looking like Cameron.
Gina: Cameron's not you, Kevin. Nobody's you except you.
[Gina kisses him]
