Amy: [to Anne] Why can't I go to Dr. Hightower?

Brenda: Oh, Sam. Sam, I am so sorry about your birthday.

Janey: Are you sure?
Flight: Trust me!
Jake: Excuse me, what are you doing?
Flight: Let me give you a little piece of advice here, Jake. Why don't you lose the "I'm the cute and sensitive, popular boy with the big side-burns routine. It's just too pathetic! And for once tell Janey what's true in your heart. Stop being such a little bitch! And you Janey! Little miss other-side-of-the-tracks awkward rebel girl with the pseudo-intellectual glasses, why don't you wise-up to Jake's bullshit! Stop being such a dumbass!

Samantha: I can't believe I gave my panties to a geek.

Janey: I knew it. That's a line from "She's All That". I masturbate to that movie.
Jake: [to nosy Flight Attendant right behind them] Do you mind?
Airline: Not at all, I think masturbation is very healthy.

Anne: [to Amy] Y-you can't be pregnant. How could this possibly have happened?
Amy: I didn't mean for it to happen. It just kinda happened.
Anne: Is this something you and your sister have come up with? Is this some kind of conspiracy to get my mind off of your father? You want me to think you're pregnant so whatever's really happening isn't so bad. Is that it?
Amy: Mom, I'm really pregnant.
Anne: No, seriously, Amy, tell me the truth. OK, look at me and tell me the truth.
Amy: I am telling you the truth.
Anne: You can't be having a baby at 15 years old.

Samantha: I know. He's supposed to be my ideal.
Randy: He's ideal for sure, but, forget it.
Samantha: God, I hope whoever got the note doesn't know it was me who wrote it. I'd shit twice and die.

Samantha: I can't believe this. They fucking forgot my birthday.

The: Come on, what's the problem here? I'm a boy. You're a girl. Is there any thing wrong with me trying to put together some kind of relationship between us? Okay, look, I know you haven't been - just answer me one question.
Samantha: Yes, you're a total fag.
The: [laughs] That's not the question. Am I turning you on?
