• Edna Garrett : We'll have to find replacements for Tootie and me.

  Joanne 'Jo' Polniaczek : I don't believe it. I don't believe you actually letting Tootie to get away with this!

  Blair Warner : I didn't realize all someone had to do to get their way is to throw a tantrum.

  Natalie Green : Me neither. I've got to work on my kicking and screaming.

  Edna Garrett : This wasn't a tantrum, girls.

  Blair Warner : All I know is that I turned down a fabulous date to be here tonight. We all have, better offers. Well...

  Joanne 'Jo' Polniaczek : [cuts Blair off]  Don't say it!

  Blair Warner : The point is, we promised we'd be here and we're here.

  Edna Garrett : You're absolutely right, Blair. We all committed ourselves to this fair and we all should honor it.

  Natalie Green : And, why are you letting Tootie go to the concert?

  Edna Garrett : Because I just don't know what else to do.

  Natalie Green : You don't know what to do? Mrs. "Always a snappy answer" Garrett doesn't know what to do?

  Edna Garrett : Girls, you didn't see her. She was hysterical. Oh, she was gonna get to that concert if she had to jump out of the window and run all the way to the city.

  Joanne 'Jo' Polniaczek : Come on, Mrs. Garrett. Not Tootie.

  Edna Garrett : That's right. Not our Tootie. But right now, she's not our Tootie. She's become...

  Blair Warner : Fanatic. Well, that's what the word "fan" comes from. My mother told me that when I threaten to leave home for King Hussein.

  Natalie Green : Mrs. Garrett, there is nothing wrong with a little healthy idol worship. Didn't you ever freak over anyone?

  Edna Garrett : Sure, I swooned over Frank Sinatra, but this is something else. I remember these films, people crying and screaming over The Beatles. They were all in such a... frenzy. It scared me. Well, that's the way I felt just now with Tootie.

  Blair Warner : Do you think taking Tootie to the concert's gonna help?

  Edna Garrett : At this point, it's the only thing I can do.

• Blair Warner : Don't worry, Tootie, I know what you're going through. But no great artist is recognized until after she is dead.

  Joanne 'Jo' Polniaczek : [eager to help out]  Give you any ideas?
