• Christie : So, Mi-chelle! What are you up to?

  Michele : Oh, okay. Um, I invented Post-Its.

  Christie : No offense, Michele, but how in the world did *you* think of Post-Its?

  Michele : Uh...

  [looks across the room at Romy talking to Billy Christianson] 

  Romy : And I thought of them completely by myself. I mean, all Michele did was say: "What about making them yellow?"

  Michele : [turns to the A Group]  Actually I invented a special kind of glue.

  Christie : Oh really? Well then I'm sure you wouldn't mind giving us a detailed account of exactly how you concocted this miracle glue, would you?

  Michele : No. Um, well, ordinarily when you make glue first you need to thermoset your resin and then after it cools you have to mix in an epoxide, which is really just a fancy-schmancy name for any simple oxygenated adhesive, right? And then I thought maybe, just maybe, you could raise the viscosity by adding a complex glucose derivative during the emulsification process and it turns out I was right.

• Cheryl : I don't believe it!

  Christie : What?

  Cheryl : THAT!

  Kelly : They're back!

  Christie : Nice outfits. Post-it's must be really lucrative!

  Michele : Romy, are you sure you wanna do this?

  Romy : Oh yeah, Michele. I am SO sure!

  [they approach Christie, Cheryl, & Kelly] 

  Romy : What the hell is your problem, Christie? Why the hell are you always such a nasty bitch? I mean, okay, so Michele and I did make up some stupid lie! We only did it because we wanted you to treat us like human beings. But you know what I realized? I don't care if you like us, 'cause we don't like you. You're a bad person with an ugly heart, and we don't give a flying fuck what you think!

  [Cheryl and Kelly laugh sarcastically] 

  Romy : Come on Michele.

  Michele : Okay, and... YEAH!

  Christie : Unbelievable! They're as deluded about their lives as they are about those HIDEOUS clothes

  Lisa Luder : Actually Christie. They have nice lines. A fun, frisky use of color. All and all, I'd have to say they're really... NOT BAD!

  Christie : Well, WE still think they're ridiculous. Don't we girls?

  Lisa Luder : Why don't you just let them think for themselves for once?

  Christie : You're just jealous. Because unlike a certain ball-busting dried up career woman, I might mention, we're all HAPPILY MARRIED!

  Lisa Luder : That's right, Christie. Keep telling yourself that.

• Michelle : What are you picking on us for any way? We are NOT the ones who got fat.

  Christie : We're pregnant, you half-wit.

  Michelle : Oh yeah? Well, I hope your babies look like monkeys!

• Christie : Thanks a lot, Romy.

  Romy : What?

  Christie : Thanks for stealing my boyfriend!

  Romy : What are you talking about?

  Christie : Billy just broke up with me. Apparently he's had a crush on you since Mr. Roswell's class and now that he knows that you like him, he doesn't want to *pretend* with me anymore. My life was perfect and you ruined it! Oh!

  [goes off] 

  Romy : I swear to God, Christy, I didn't even think he'd dance with me!

  Michele : Wow, she is really P.O.'d. This is so cool!

  Romy : I know. It's like I had this dream where Billy was, like, in love with me, and he was in a wheelchair, but still, it's like it's coming true!

• Christie : Sandy, hi! You look so rich! I mean, great!

• Christie : [addressing Michele]  Oh - it's the back-brace girl!

  The 'A' group : [in sneering tone]  Hi, back-brace girl!
