Quotes 

• Gina Devereaux : It's not what you think, Whitley. Dion is the sweetest, most romantic guy I've ever gone out with.

  Whitley Marion Gilbert Wayne : So I've heard. He's just nervous about the concert.

  Gina Devereaux : Well, you know how I am - I'm so self-centered and I'm always running off at the mouth, and you know how I flirt.

  Whitley Marion Gilbert Wayne : There's no excuse for what he did to you, Gina. You're much smarter than this.

  Gina Devereaux : But he loves me... and I don't want to break up with him.

  [Sniffs] 

  Gina Devereaux : I just want him to stop.

  Whitley Marion Gilbert Wayne : Throwing jabs? You're making a big mistake, Gina, if you think you can change that boy.

  Gina Devereaux : Well, I mean, I can try, can't I? Isn't love about sacrifices? I mean, maybe I am being stupid, but I don't even care anymore.

  Whitley Marion Gilbert Wayne : I think you do, Gina. I think you do care. I think you're embarrassed about that black eye. Believe me, I know about sacrifices. But I'd rather sacrifice my relationship than my body... or my spirit.

  Gina Devereaux : Well... that's easy for you to say. You always got somebody.

  Whitley Marion Gilbert Wayne : That's right. And her name is Whitley. Gina, do you really think you need a man that doesn't respect you?

  [Removes Gina's glasses and holds her chin upwards, so that she is facing Whitley directly] 

  Gina Devereaux : [as tears stream down her face]  I better not miss his call.

  [Rushes out of the room]
