Amanda Becket : Hi, umm... Do you happen to know who Preston Myers is?
Earth Girl : Du'uh. He only sat like, right next to you in freshman English. But I guess you wouldn't remember that. I mean, why would Amanda Beckett pay any attention to a unique spirit like Preston, or even a unique spirit like me? Maybe it's because she's a little busy ordering around her little conformist flock of sheep. *Sheep!* You are all sheep. Baah!
[off-screen:]
Earth Girl : Baah!
