Quotes 

• Jo Polniaczek : Well you got me mad!

  Blair Warner : So what else is new? You always make me mad. You make me furious.

  Jo Polniaczek : Then why did you do this for me?

  Blair Warner : Because I didn't want you to go. I can admit we're friends even if you can't.

• Blair Warner : That's what friendship is, Jo. I do something for you...

  Jo Polniaczek : And I do something for you.

  Blair Warner : No. I do something for you, and you let me do it.

  Jo Polniaczek : But then I owe you, right?

  Blair Warner : You owe the gas company. You owe Bloomingdale's. You don't owe your friends.

• Jo Polniaczek : I was thinking of trying something new with my hair.

  Blair Warner : You mean like washing it?

• Jo Polniaczek : [after finding out Blair secretly sent in her scholarship application, which she got]  Blair. You just couldn't keep your hands off my life, could you? I told you I didn't want your crummy scholarship!

  Edna Garrett : It's the same crummy scholarship you were thrilled about a minute ago.

  Jo Polniaczek : This is different.

  Edna Garrett : How?

  Blair Warner : Yeah, how?

  Jo Polniaczek : Cause she's gonna hold this over me for the rest of my life.

  Blair Warner : I didn't do anything you couldn't have done yourself. And you don't owe me anything except three dollars and thirty-three cents.

  Blair Warner : [after Jo gives a confused face]  I sent your application registered mail.

• [first lines] 

  Jo Polniaczek : [Blair's keeping a distance between her and the washing-up]  Are you allergic to Teflon or what?

  Blair Warner : I'm trying not to get anything on my outfit. This is a Giovanni De Marco.

  Jo Polniaczek : Too late! Giovanni's already got some maple syrup on his sleeve.

• Blair Warner : [to Jo]  I could have done something really wonderful for you.

  Jo Polniaczek : Aw, go do it for a giraffe!
