NASH & ANTONIO QUOTES
2005
2005 ++ 2006 ++ 2007

[Antonio has tracked Tess/Jessica to the winery, and Nash is ready for a showdown]
Nash: (about Tess) Just leave her the hell alone.
Antonio: I can't do that.
Nash: You can't do that? Pathetic, but honest.

Antonio: Jessica and I have been together for five years. We're engaged. We're raising a child together. And you think that after, what, a month you know her better than I do?
Nash: I know that you're the one she was running from.

Nash: When are you going to get it? You're not calling the shots anymore. Tess doesn't answer to you.
Antonio: No, but Jessica will.

Nash: How did keeping me in the dark help anybody? You had all that information back at the loft, but you didn't deem me worthy to know that, did you? Same way you don't deem Tess to be a human!
Antonio: Because she's not, Jess is!
Nash: She is. She's real. She's very real. She's the most real person I know. She's real enough to fall in love. She's real enough to have a baby. She was real enough to want to get away from you so badly that she climbed out of your window.

Antonio: The girl that's in there is Jessica, and the girl that's going to walk out of there is Jessica. Why can't you get it through your thick skull and head back to California where you belong?
Nash: You know, I'm starting to understand why Jessica needed Tess to get away from you. You don't listen.

Nash: (to Antonio and Jessica) You two were together, what, once? See, Tess and I were together a lot. You might say that we were having sex all the time.

Nash: It's not going to work.
Antonio: I'm not exactly sure what you mean.
Nash: Baiting me. It's not going to work. All right, I'm upset, I'm frustrated, yeah, I'm angry. But I'm supposed to pop you one just on time for Jessica and her father to come through here and figure out what kind of an animal I really am, right? It's not going to work.

Antonio: You know, I'm only out here because of Jessica, because I told her I would be a little more open to her situation.
Nash: No kidding?

Antonio: You know, I'd like to think I'm a straightforward kind of guy.
Nash: Mm-hmm.
Antonio: When I find out that a guy runs off with the woman I love, I don't like the guy. But then I find out that she has D.I.D. and he knows nothing about it, I try to do the standup thing.
Nash: And the standup thing in this case just results in me 3,000 miles away?

Antonio: We scheduled a paternity test.
Nash: A paternity test? That's great, let's get a nurse in here. I'll give a blood sample.
Antonio: I'm the father. I'll give the sample.
Nash: Well, it'll rule it out either way, won't it?

Nash: I don't know what you're talking about. No one tried to kill me.
Antonio: No, of course they didn't. Your face must have assaulted somebody's fist, is that it?
Nash: I walked into a door.

Jessica: Antonio's right outside.
Nash: I'm in a wheelchair. What's he afraid of?
