Quotes
-
Sam : [v.o] We had leaped together and survived, but we still didn't know if Alia had leaped with me or if I had leaped with her. And being in a women's prison didn't make finding the answer to that any easier.
-
Sam : [v.o] College is wasted on the young. I mean, think of it: a four-year license to learn and have fun without the pressures of work and family.
-
Dawn : I never met a real superhero before. Hi, I'm Dawn Taylor.
Sam : Hi, I'm... Arnold Watkins.
[they shake hands]
Dawn : Just how fast was that speeding car going?
Sam : Oh, it wasn't really going fast. I mean, when I got on it, it was standing.
[Dawn leaps out and Alia leaps in]
Sam : You okay?
Mike : She's fine, she's fine. Her only problem is she's smelling your dirty socks, Arnold.
-
[Sam and Alia are meeting in the library, both unaware of who the other is]
Alia : I'm sorry Mike was such a jerk today.
Sam : Oh, it's not your fault.
Alia : Most of the time he's really sweet. He only acts macho when it comes to his fraternity.
Sam : Macho?
Alia : Yeah, I learned it last summer in Spain. It means manly, masculine, *macho*.
Sam : Yeah, well, he sure likes acting macho when he's out chicken racing with his buddies, doesn't he?
Alia : Yeah, you're not kidding.
Sam : Have you ever tried to talk him out of it?
Alia : He doesn't listen to me. I'm just his girl.
Sam : Oh, yeah, right. It's the '50s.
[Alia gives Sam a puzzled expression]
Sam : I mean, I've got this feeling that s-, that someday, men are gonna be much more receptive to the way women think.
-
Mike : Congratulations, stud.
Sam : What did I do now?
Mike : I don't know. I don't know, Arnold. Just what did you do?
Sam : Nothing.
Mike : Right.
Alia : Don't be so modest, Arnie.
Mike : Arnie?
Sam : Arnie?
Alia : I'm not ashamed of what we did.
Mike : Oh, that does it. I want you, dweebo, today at the quarry!
Sam : Just wait a minute...
Mike : And bring your wheels!
Sam : If you wanna commit suicide, that's your problem.
Alia : That's not what you said last night.
Sam : What?
Alia : You said that Mike and his friends were just playing a bunch of crazy kids' games, that they had no idea what real danger was like.
Mike : I'll show you danger. The quarry, an hour!
[Mike storms out of the library]
Sam : Dawn, what's going on?
[Sam grabs Alia, allowing the two leapers to see each others' true forms]
Sam : My god... Alia?
Alia : I don't have a choice, Sam.

Jack : You know, Mike Hammond called me on the phone about ten minutes ago, and you know what he said? He said that they weren't sure that they wanted to pledge anyone with such a monumental jerk as a roommate.
Sam : Why would you wanna pledge a fraternity that's full of idiots in the first place?
Jack : Full of what?
Al : You said the wrong thing, Sam. His dad was a Chi Kappa Delta idiot, and his granddad, and his great-granddad was a founding idiot.
