7th Heaven, Season 11

Ruthie:
Martin, you're not in love with me. I really am like a sister to you, and when you do find the right woman to be with, I'll be happy to baby-sit for you, okay?

Martin:
But all this time, you've been, like, wanting to go out with me, and now that I want to go out with you--

Ruthie:
It's too late. I found someone else.

Martin:
For now. But you're 17. Maybe you'll change your mind.

Ruthie:
I can't. I have his name tattooed on my back.

Martin:
Why'd you do that?

Ruthie:
I don't know. It was an impulse, a bad impulse. It was the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life.

Martin:
So you're staying with him because of a stupid mistake?

Ruthie:
He's staying with me. We're staying together, and if we're lucky, we'll be together for the rest of our lives.

Martin:
But his mother is...you know...

Ruthie:
I know. And despite how she treated him and who she is, the fact that he treats me and other women so respectfully...it just amazes me. He amazes me. I'm in love with T-Bone.

Martin:
So you don't think you'll be taking off for Scotland next year, when you graduate?

Ruthie:
But if I go, I'm dragging T-Bone with me. He loves Scotland, and there's a whole world out there--a world I want to see. And I want to see it with him. Maybe we'll go somewhere we've never been for college, or maybe we'll take a year off after high school and just travel together. I don't know what will happen, but I do know how I feel.

Martin:
Well, someday, I hope to find a woman who feels the same way about me. (they hug)

Ruthie:
Bye, Martin.

Martin:
Bye, Ruthie. [she leaves]
