Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
Look, I'd like to talk to you, okay?

Daria Morgendorffer:
So, talk.

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
Listen, you don't like me and that's fine. There's no reason you should.

Daria Morgendorffer:
I agree.

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
But it would be really nice if you could try and get along with me a little. At least in front of Jane.

Daria Morgendorffer:
Why should I?

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
Because she's your best friend, and I really like her and want to get to know her.

Daria Morgendorffer:
So?

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
So you hating me puts her in a very awkward position.

Daria Morgendorffer:
I don't hate you. I don't even know you. But I'm not going to sit by while you take my friend away.

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
I'm not taking your friend away. All she talks about is "Daria said this," "Daria did this," "listen to what Daria told this moron."

Daria Morgendorffer:
Don't bother with the flattery, Tom... I'm immune.

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
I'm not flattering you, Daria. I don't care if you don't like me. I'm just saying you'd have to be pretty stupid to think anything or anybody is going to shake your friendship with Jane.

Daria Morgendorffer:
Yeah, pretty stupid. Look, I may conceivably have been acting like a jerk toward you...

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
It's possible; don't worry about it.

Daria Morgendorffer:
But you and I are not friends.

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
Definitely not.

Daria Morgendorffer:
And even if we were friends, I still wouldn't ride in that car.

Thomas 'Tom' Sloane:
That's just plain common sense.
