Happy Death Day Quotes

[Danielle is interviewed about Lori's death. In the background, Emily whimpers, while Becky tries to calm her]
Danielle Bouseman: I just knew there was something wrong with Lori. She never wore make up, never posted any cute selfies, and she literally owned a pair of crocs. All the signs of a psycho killer would...
[angrily, Danielle turns to Emily]

Danielle Bouseman: Hello? I'm trying to get interviewed here!
[Becky and Emily go away]
Tree Gelbman: [watching this on TV] Oh my God, she is such a tool.
Danielle Bouseman: Anyhoo, Lori's little plot was super lame. Poisoning a cupcake? Really? We're Kappas. We don't eat cupcakes. Is this local or national?

Police Officer: Ma'am, are you under the influence of alcohol or any other controlled substance?
Tree Gelbman: No! That is what I'm trying to...
[pause]
Tree Gelbman: Wait. If I am, does that mean that you're going to arrest me and lock me in a jail cell?
Police Officer: That's how it usually works.

Tree Gelbman: I'm drunk!
Police Officer: You are?
Tree Gelbman: Wasted. And I'm high. You know, pills... weed... you name it, man, I'm on it!

[Tree enters the OR, armed with a gun and a knife. Tombs lies on the bed, seemingly asleep. Tree points the gun at him]
Tree Gelbman: I know you are not asleep. Open your eyes.
[Tombs blinks. Determinedly, recalling how Tombs ruthlessly killed Carter the day before, Tree presses the trigger, but nothing happens. Tombs smiles teasingly. Fearfully, Tree presses the

trigger repeatedly, but in vain]
Joseph Tombs: [mockingly] Safety on, little girl.
[Tombs strikes Tree with a pillow, knocking the gun from her hand. The gun slids on the floor out of the room. Tree attempts to retrieve it, but Tombs charges, grabs her and slams her against the wall. He starts strangling Tree, but then he notices the knife in her belt. He draws the

knife]
Joseph Tombs: Look what we have here... hmm?
[Tombs presses the knife against Tree's throat. Tree whimpers. Tombs moves his face near Tree's cheek]
Joseph Tombs: You know, it's a real nice surprise, you comin' and visit me like this...
[Tree knees Tombs in his groin. Tombs recoils painfully, then attempts to stab Tree. Tree

evades Tombs, and the knife is thrust into the door. Before Tree can get away, Tombs grabs her and slams her against a door in the opposite wall, then throws her against a firehose cabinet. The glass door of the cabinet breaks. Tree collapses on the floor, groaning in pain, among glass shards]
Joseph Tombs: Woof! I like you. Damn shame.
[Tombs pulls the knife out of

the door. Tree tries to stand on her feet, but she is too weak]
Joseph Tombs: You're a fiesty little shit, ain't you?
[laughing, Tombs advances toward Tree, who lies helplessly on the floor]
Joseph Tombs: [laughs] That's right, crawl, little girl, crawl... don't worry, I'll just make this real quick for ya, OK?
[Tree is overwhelmed with

fear. Suddenly, her watch beeps. To Tombs' surprise, Tree smiles confidently. The lights go out for a few seconds. Once the lights are back on, Tree has disappeared from view. Tombs is confused, unaware that Tree has retrieved the gun and stands behind him]
Tree Gelbman: Hey!
[Tombs turns back, facing Tree, who points the gun at him]
Tree

Gelbman: Safety's off. Thanks for the tip.
[without hesitation, Tree shoots Tombs three times. The serial murderer collapses to the floor, dead. Tree sighs in relief, believing incorrectly that the time-loop is resolved - unaware that she has yet to deal with the main culprit]

[Tree storms into her room. She hastily starts packing her belongings]
Lori Spengler: She finally rolls in...
[Lori looks at Tree, puzzled]
Lori Spengler: Going somewhere?
Tree Gelbman: Yes. As far away as possible.
Lori Spengler: Tree, what's wrong?
Tree Gelbman:

[continues packing] Me. I was wrong. I thought that if I stopped running that I could beat it. But it's never gonna stop.
Lori Spengler: Tree, you're freaking me out.
Tree Gelbman: Hello, that's me, a freak!
[Lori takes the cupcake, lights the candle, approaches Tree and hands her the cupcake]
Lori Spengler: [smiles]

Tree. Tree, look. Happy birthday.
Tree Gelbman: [turns her back to Lori] Thanks. But I already ate it last night.
[suddenly, it dawns on Tree who is the murderer. She stops packing]
Tree Gelbman: Oh, my God. I died in my sleep.
Lori Spengler: What?
[Tree turns to face Lori]
Tree Gelbman:

You killed me.
Lori Spengler: What?
Tree Gelbman: You poisoned it. But I never ate it before.
[a flasback: Tree drops the cupcake on the floor without eating it]
Tree Gelbman: So you had to find another way. Then Tombs fell right into your lap. Perfect scapegoat.
[flashbacks: Tombs is transported on a stretcher

while Lori watches; Lori injects Tombs sedatives; Lori plants a knife in Tombs' room and covers his face with the babyface mask; Lori kills Tree, then removes the mask]
Tree Gelbman: You had access to him. Did you drug him first? You knew that if he escaped, everyone would assume that he killed me. But it was always you.
Lori Spengler: [chuckles

nervously] Tree, are... is this a joke? You think I would actually try to poison you with a freaking cupcake?
Tree Gelbman: [shrugs] Okay then. Prove it.
[Tree takes the cupcake, blows the candle and hands the cupcake back to Lori]
Tree Gelbman: Go on, Lori. Take a bite. Go on, Lori.
Lori Spengler: [shakes her head,

chuckling nervously] You really are crazy.
Tree Gelbman: [smiles] Okay then. I'll take it down to the police. I'm sure they can tell us what your little birthday treat is made of.
[as Tree starts walking away, Lori wears a sinister expression. She grabs Tree's hair, then knocks her against the bathroom door. Tree falls to the floor. While she is momentarily stunned,

Lori chuckles nastily, locks the room door and faces Tree]
Lori Spengler: [contemptuously] You stupid little whore.
Tree Gelbman: [fearfully] I know I've been a bad roommate, but... isn't this a bit much? What the hell?
Lori Spengler: Oh, I don't know. Maybe because you wouldn't stop sleeping with him.
Tree

Gelbman: What? Gregory?
Lori Spengler: [venomously] But he just kept choosing you over me. I guess all he wanted was a cheap slut like you!
Tree Gelbman: [in disbelief] Wait, you've been killing me over some stupid guy?
Lori Spengler: [shakes her head] Oh, that's not the only reason. You're a dumb bitch, too! What I

really wanna know is, how did you figure it out?
Tree Gelbman: Because you've killed me before.
Lori Spengler: [smiles] Then I guess I'm just gonna have to do it again.
[Lori steps toward Tree. Tree kicks her in the stomach. Lori doubles up painfully]

Carter Davis: I was never close to my dad. Can't even remember the last time he called me on my birthday. He kinda always forgets.
Tree Gelbman: Yeah. I'm supposed to be with mine. I don't know, I couldn't bear the thought of sitting through another uncomfortable celebration while we both pretend that everything is awesome.
Carter

Davis: Are you closer with your mom?
Tree Gelbman: Was.
Carter Davis: What happened?
[Tree does not answer, just looks sadly]
Carter Davis: Oh, she...
Tree Gelbman: Yeah. Three years ago.
Carter Davis: I'm sorry. That-that sucks.
Tree

Gelbman: Yeah. We actually share the same birthday, though.
Carter Davis: [smiles] Seriously? That's crazy.
Tree Gelbman: [smiles] You know, when I was a kid, I always got to skip school. We'd go to the beach. My dad would buy us this like huge birthday cake. And put just one candle on it. We'd blow it out together.
Carter

Davis: I bet you miss her.
Tree Gelbman: [nods] Yeah.
[pause]
Tree Gelbman: You know, it's funny, you relive the same day over and over again, you kind of start to see who you really are. If my mom saw me now, and who I've become, I don't think she'd be very proud.
Carter Davis: Don't say that.

Tree Gelbman: [sharply] It's true. I'm not a good person, Carter. Maybe it's karma, maybe I deserve it.
[Tree lowers her eyes, saddened]
Carter Davis: Well, look, I don't know you all that well, but... it's never too late to change. I mean, especially if what you're saying is true, each new day is... it's a chance to be somebody better.

[Tree enters the hospital, to meet her secret lover Dr. Gregory Butler. She walks to the elevator. The elevator doors open, and Lori steps outside]
Tree Gelbman: Lori.
Lori Spengler: Hi.
Tree Gelbman: Hi. Um... so, I thought you only worked nights.
Lori Spengler: Doing a double for Jan. She has the flu.

Tree Gelbman: That's nice of you.
Lori Spengler: [smiles knowingly] So, I guess I don't need to ask what you're doing here.
Tree Gelbman: Gotta go.
[Tree enters the elevaor]
Lori Spengler: Look, Tree... it's none of my business, but... I think something like this is bound to have some pretty

serious consequences.
Tree Gelbman: [smiles sweetly] You're right. It is none of your business.

[after erasing the names of Nick, Tim and Stephanie from the suspect list, Tree checks on Danielle. They walk together, chatting]
Danielle Bouseman: So exhausting...
[someone bumps into Danielle, making her drop her books]
Danielle Bouseman: Asshole!
[Tree bends to pick Danielle's books. Suddenly she noticed a birthday card among the

books, similar to the one she received. Thinking incorrectly that Danielle is the murderer, Tree looks at her murderously]
Tree Gelbman: You bitch!
[Tree drops the card and charges at Danielle. They grab each other's hair, then struggle on the ground]
Tree Gelbman: I knew it was you!
[they roll from the sidewalk to the road]

Tree Gelbman: Come here!
[Tree sits on top of Danielle, beating her]
Danielle Bouseman: Get off me!
Tree Gelbman: I'm gonna kill you!
[they are run over by a bus. Tree wakes in Carter's bed, yelling furiously. She crosses off Danielle's name from the suspect list]

[at the sorotrity meeting, Danielle is about to offend Becky, as she did previously]
Danielle Bouseman: [harshly] Becky... is that chocolate milk I see?
Becky Shepard: [embarrassed] I skipped breakfast.
[Tree arrives, carrying a tray with a lot of fattening food. She sits next to Becky]
Tree Gelbman: Oh!
[Tree

takes a handful of chips and shoves them into her mouth, while Danielle and the other girls watch her in disbelief]
Tree Gelbman: Mmm... mmm... mmm, guys, it's so good.
Danielle Bouseman: [angrily] What's up with the fat fest? We're Kappas.
Tree Gelbman: [with her mouth full] Come on, hun, live a little.
[Tree throws a

snack bar on the table near Danielle]
Tree Gelbman: A few calories won't kill ya.
Danielle Bouseman: [nastily] No. It'll just turn me into a chunker. Like Becky here.
[offended, Becky picks her food tray, stands and is about to leave, but Tree stops her]
Tree Gelbman: Wait.
[Tree takes a large cup of chocolate

milk from Becky's tray. Becky sits back. Tree approaches Danielle, removes the straw from the cup and drops it. Danielle stares at Tree, confused. Slowly, Tree pours the entire contents of the chocolate milk cup on the obnoxious girl's head. Becky and all the other girls burst out laughing]
Danielle Bouseman: Oh, my God!
[humiliated, Danielle runs away, while

everyone laughs at her]
