幼兒園時，好朋友是當你的手中只剩一支醜陋的黑蠟筆時給你紅蠟筆的人。一年級時，好朋友是陪你一起去廁所、牽著你的手陪你穿過令人恐懼的走廊的人。二年級時，好朋友是幫助你勇敢地抵抗班上那些欺凌弱小同學的人。三年級時，好朋友是當你將午餐遺忘在公車上時與你分享午餐的人。四年級時，好朋友是那個在體育館內跳方塊舞時與你交換舞伴，讓你不必與討厭的尼克或者蘇姍跳舞的人。五年級時，好朋友是在校車後面為你佔座的人。六年級時，好朋友是那個走到你喜歡的尼克或蘇珊面前，邀請他們與你共舞，即使他們拒絕，也不會讓你感到尷尬的人。
七年級時，好朋友是在你需要交社會學科家庭作業的前一天晚上，幫你補習功課的人。八年級時，好朋友是幫你整理塞滿了玩具動物和過期棒球票的房間，讓它成為標準的「中學生宿舍」，而後當你感激得流下眼淚也不會嘲笑你的人。九年級時，好朋友是陪你一起參加高年級同學舉辦的派對讓你不會因陌生人而感到緊張的人。十年級時，好朋友是改變原來的計劃留下來與你共進午餐的人。十一年級時，好朋友是開著新車帶你兜風，說服你的父母別把你關在家裡，當你與尼克與蘇珊分手時安慰你並在舞會上給你介紹朋友的人。十二年級時，好朋友是幫你挑選大學，讓你相信自己能考上大學，當你即將離開父母，幫助他們調整心態，接受你即將遠行這一事實的人。
畢業那年暑假，好朋友是在派對過後幫你收拾乾淨所有的瓶子，當你與父母鬧彆扭時幫你偷偷溜出去，保證你和尼克或蘇珊重歸於好並渡過一切難關，幫助你打點上大學的行裝，靜靜地擁抱你與你一同含淚回首過去十八年的童年時光，並不斷鼓勵你給你信心，讓你相信自己能在大學校園裡活得如同過去的十八年一樣游刃有餘，最重要的是為你送行讓你知曉自己是被愛著的人。
