Paper Towns (2015) Soundboard Edit

Admired. You know, she's a real lady

Agloe, New York, population zero..

All of us.

An address

And Ben, at the last second, grabbed the steering wheel...

And for no other reason I could ever discern..

And I still do

And I think it was a map.

And I'll never look back just hold your head up

And if it gets rough it's time to get rough

And make indelible memories

And there we were..

And this is where she used to hang it.

And would not have walked up the stairs

Angela is a mature, intelligent,

Apparently he was getting divorced and he was sad about it

Are way out there

Are you gonna answer that?

At the swingin' party down the line

Bartlesville Avenue

Basically, this is gonna be the best night of your life.

Be mine

Because...

Been trying to wake you for 20 minutes.

BEN: (CHUCKLING) That's a good one.

BEN: All right, see you.

BEN: Get in, get in, get in!

BEN: I get that you need them

BEN: I love you.

BEN: I pee.

BEN: Was that Italian?

BEN: You're terrible at directions.

Besides, Margo's been in this house a million times

Born 1912. Died 1967.

But as it turns out...

But I didn't talk to her for nine years, so that's...

But I have to go.

But I never stopped thinking about her...

But I won't move until this stops

But I'm getting ahead of myself

But it sure isn't big.

But that doesn't mean we won't have amazing adventures...

But what if it isn't?

But you can still go to a party at his house?

But you're still pretty something

By the end of high school...

Can I ask you something?

Can you project?

Couldn't you have just thrown it through a window or something?

Do you think she'd do the same for me?

Do you wanna do the honors?

Don't stop no it's never enough

Don't stop, no, it's never enough

Don't worry about it

Embedded in a magazine

Even if I enlarge it...

Falling, falling, falling

Finish and then get out.

For what?

From Margo Roth Spiegelman

Get in position.

GIRL: Where did you hear that?

Go back to the top

Go back to the top

Guys, we can't give up yet. It's Margo.

He got a kidney infection

He won't.

Hello, Quentin.

Hello, Quentin.

Hey.

Hi!

High against where the rivers are flowing

Hmm?

Hmm.

How do you know all this?

I can't believe you're here

I didn't think you would come all this way

I do! Santa is a construct.

I don't know

I don't know, but I think she was once and it's connected somehow

I don't know, guys

I followed the clues...

I found something.

I just do.

I know it

I know it's not the right time tonight

I know.

I promise, Angela, one day I will answer that,

I rearrange the way I listen in the dark

I still can't believe she hasn't called.

I think I know where Margo is

I thought there'd be a...

I thought you closed your eyes when you died

I thought..

I used to believe everyone gets a miracle

I was wrong about a lot of things

I won't say which building

I'll hold it. Yep. I'm gonna hold it.

I'll never look back never give up

I'm gonna do it.

I'm gonna need another can.

I'm gonna stay

I'm in love with you

I'm like, Yo, what's up? Let's do it

I'm making a move, Q.

I'm not.

I'm trying to get home to Orlando

I've been better

I've told you guys this so many times

Idiot never locks his car.

If bein' strong's your kind

If she was gone...

If you ask me, someone like Margo doesn't really deserve you.

If you consider all the unlikely things that happen in all the world...

If you hear from her, will you tell me?

If you must know, we're...

In the aisles of the grocery

In what? What did I do?

Is the SunTrust building.

Is there a town?

It doesn't make sense

It reeks in here.

It was mixed well.

It was really that bad?

It was Wednesday, I think. Yeah, Wednesday night.

It's almost 11:00

It's beautiful.

It's not even like that. It's like...

It's this big, Quentin.

It's weird.

JASE: You're so much better than her

Just keep me company

Just love me some Pikachu

Keg stand record holder.

LACEY: Bye.

LACEY: It's nasty

LACEY: Look at me

Lacey!

Lacey's?

Last homeroom, last science lab.

Let's sing a song.

Like, 1,200 miles

Look at this.

MARGO: Four...

Margo. Margo.

Maybe just sing the first song that pops into your head.

Maybe you make it to outer space...

MRS. JACOBSEN: I know this is a difficult situation for you.

MRS. SPIEGELMAN: For the fifth time.

Neither have I.

No

No one will ever be the new Margo.

No, I wanna party.

No, it wasn't Iceland. It was Greenland.

No, they weren't

No, we're not a thing anymore

Not if I can help it

Not only that..

Not to say which stairs

Of course you do. Yeah, you know the name of the guard

Of unbelievably epic adventures.

Oh, God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, next left.

Oh, yeah, you could ask... Oh, no, she's also made up.

Okay, fine, we'll get back by prom.

Okay, I'll try not to take that personally.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. So what's this about?

On a drive I'm taking backroads

Only because he didn't succeed.

Or he wants me to be..

Peanuts, Milk Duds, Twizzlers. Got it.

Pokémon! Gotta catch 'em all

Pretty awesome.

Pull in here

Q, let's go

QUENTIN: But Margo never made it to school that day

QUENTIN: Due to our close proximity

QUENTIN: I'm going as fast as I'm willing

QUENTIN: Like everyone else, I started to wonder..

QUENTIN: Mmm hmm.

QUENTIN: Tortilla chips, beef jerky, pretzels,

QUENTIN: What was her last name?

QUENTIN: Yeah. Happy Halloween, guys

QUENTIN: Yeah. Not your top candidates for parents of the year.

Radar, it's so good.

RADAR: According to my calculations,

RADAR: He's right, though.

RADAR: I'll miss my hair appointment..

Roscoe, Rockland, Beaverkill, Agloe, Chatham, Wallaceberg.

SATs, extracurriculars

Seriously.

She became one.

She is...

She was a girl.

She's in Agloe.

She's like, (IN SHRILL VOICE) What? We go upstairs...

So, it's not about a dude killing a whale

Something about a date?

Somewhere...

Stay, life can be long

Teaching surf lessons in Malibu

Thank you

Thank you.

That big a deal to me

That was a...

That was fun. That was pretty fun.

That's the first song that popped in your head?

That's where Margo is. You need to go right now.

The rules are so unfair to the letters in the middle

The trick is...

Then I need help here with this feather

Then we all smoked them behind the house?

There you go. Your true love waits.

There'll be plenty enough room in jail

There's plenty other honey bunnies in the sea.

These are all terrible, terrible things.

Three...

Treat her like the princess she is

Two...

Uh...

Um..

Unsentimental

Up.

Walked up to a big old building

Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know, wanna know it's true

We bring the rain down on our enemies.

We bring the rain, not the scattered showers.

We got no time to waste, Radar.

We hate high school.

We have a limo coming

We?

We're gonna wrong some rights.

We're waiting till prom.

Well, of course there is.

Well, there you go.

Were you listening, Ben?

What do you mean? What do I do?

What happened?

What if it's Margo?

What is wrong with you?

What makes you so sure?

What, are you committing felonies?

What?

What?

When I eat my Lucky Charms with a little black Santa spoon

When was the last time you saw Margo?

Who cares about prom?

Who's the kid?

Whoa!

With one of my best friends.

Yeah, I can't believe it's almost over.

Yeah, I do. Don't say that I don't..

Yeah.

Yeah. Don't tell her I told you.

Yep.

Yes.

Yes.

You can do whatever you want, Q.

You could take Suzie Chung

You didn't think a scumbag like Chuck Parson could emerge unscathed, did you?

You guys don't think...

You guys need a bag?

You know what it's like.

You know..

You promised me no breaking and entering

You're cute when you're confident.

You're going 64.

You're in love with me

You're not in love with me

Your courage will pull us through

Your parents aren't home, are they?

Your whole life.

(SHUTTER CLICKS) (GASPS)

(STRAINING) (DOOR RATTLING)

(TEARING) It's just...

Because of what? I cannot hear you

BEN: A full right? RADAR: Yeah.

BEN: God save the Queen! RADAR: Stop.

Hey, Ben, you okay? (ALL PANTING)

Hi, Mrs. Jacobsen. Hey, Mrs. Jacobsen.

Holy shit! Really? Yeah.

I don't know. Just say her last name.

I've ever seen in my entire life. Thank you.

It was a hit it and quit it? Yeah. I hit that honey bunny.

Q... She'll be here. I know it

QUENTIN: Define real. I don't know.

See you tonight? Oh. I don't know. Probably

Shotgun! Move!

Uh... (HONKING)

WOMAN: Here you go. Okay

Yes! LACEY: Yay, Let's go!
