Dialogue

[edit]

Student: [Bumps into Cady walking into school] Bitch, move.
Mr. Duvall: [Holds a trash can for a student to spit gum in who complies] Hope you all had a good summer. Mine was pretty good. I worked in my brother-in-law’s [turns student's phone down to table] golf pro shop. Did not make a lot of money, so of course I am back to help shepherd you all into the future. [Knocks desk of sleeping student who wakes] May I have everyone’s attention, please? Eyes to the front of the room. You may notice we have a new student joining us today. She just moved here from Kentucky.
Cady: Kenya.
Mr. Duvall: Kenya. Her name is Caddy.
Cady: It’s Cady. Cady Heron.
Mr. Duvall: My apologies. I will commit that to memory. Cady, like the Canadian songstress k.d. lang, and Heron, like the illegal street drug. Thank you, Caddy.
Cady: It’s Cady.
Ms. Norbury: Cady, hi. I’m Ms. Norbury. [Shakes her hand] I’ll be your homeroom teacher. [Holds out paper] This is your roster. I see I also have you for A.P. Calculus. You must have had excellent teachers at your old school.
Cady: Oh, I was homeschooled.
Ms. Norbury: Homeschooled? Oh, that’s a fun way to take jobs from my union. No, I’m joking. It’s fine. Ah. Um, do you think you can follow this schedule?
Cady: Yeah, I think so.
Ms. Norbury: Okay, you’re gonna be moving from class to class with each...
Mr. Rapp: That’s it. Everybody find a seat. Please. This is first period: American Literature. [Freestyle rapping] My name is Mister Rapp, and I take no...? [Expecting answer from silent class] My name is Mister Rapp And I take no...?
Student: “...care of myself”?
Mr. Rapp: “Crap.” Correct answer was “crap.” [To Cady] Find a seat. [Cady sits on floor due to absence of seats] I don’t want you to think of me as just any other teacher. I prefer to think of myself as a time traveler.
Madame Park: Maintenant nous choisissons nos noms français. Cady. Comment tu t’appelles?
Cady: Je m’appelle Cady.
Madame Park: Incorrecte!
Janis: You have to pick a French name.
Cady: All the French people I know just call me Cady. [Chuckles]
Janis: Just say Marie.
Cady: Um, [Weak French accent] Marie?
Madame Park: [Strong French accent] Marie.
Janis: J’anice.
Madame Park: J’anice.
Damian: Chanel.
Madame Park: Non.
Damian: Fantine.
Madame Park: Non.
Damian: Celine Dion?
Madame Park: Non.
Damian: Beyoncé.
Madame Park: Quais. Mais non.
Coach Carr: Welcome to “Health and Human Sexuality.” Now, this fall we’ll be getting into the state-mandated unit on Abstinence. Of course then followed by, in the spring, Condoms and Choking. [To Cady walking out of room] Where do you think you’re going there, hotshot?
Cady: I need to urinate.
Coach Carr: No way, José.
Cady: Uh, it’s Cady.
Coach Carr: Well, Cady, first thing you need to do is ask permission. But the second thing you’ll need is this lavatory pass that is shaped like a sperm whale. Get it?
Cady: Um... May I please have the lavatory pass?
Coach Carr: No, you may not. You may go sit back down. You can go at lunch. Nice try, kiddo. All right, let’s jump into this! This won’t be awkward at all, I swear to God.
Damian: [To Cady in a toilet stall eating her lunch] Are you okay in there?
Cady: Uh, yes.
Damian: ‘Cause you’ve been in there a very long time. We’re concerned you’re either doing drugs or having a toilet baby.
Cady: [Opens stall door] Hi.
Janis: I’m Janis.
Damian: And je m’appelle Sasha Fierce.
Janis: This is Damian. He is almost too gay to function. [Makes a stereotypical effeminate gesture]
Damian: But I push through. I manage.
Janis: Hi.
Janis: We’ve been watching you all day.
Damian: You’re a mess. So we volunteer to amplify your lunch experience.
Janis: Yeah, what Damian is saying is we will help you, Caddy.
Cady: Thanks so much. Um... it’s Cady.
Janis: Yeah. I’m gonna call you Caddy. Get out of the toilet!
...
Damian: [In cafeteria pointing to tables with Cady and Janis] Mkay. You just need to find your clique and commit to it. [Points] You have your Jocks. [Points] Your Corny Horny Band Freaks. [Points] Your Classic Burnouts. Do any of these feel like your people?
Cady: I don’t think so.
Damian: Hmm... You know what might be cute for her?
Janis: What, Grade Grubbers?
Damian: No, I was gonna say Theater Mess.
Cady: [Points to Plastics table] And who’s at that table?
Damian: Oh, no, no, no. We call them the Plastics ’cause they’re shiny, fake and hard.
Cady: Yeah, that’s Gretchen Wieners. She knows everything about everybody. That’s why her hair’s so big.
Damian: It’s full of secrets.
Janis: And that’s Karen Shetty. She’s the dumbest person you’ll ever meet.
Damian: I once saw her put a D in the word “orange.” [Karen blows bubbles in her soda can]
Cady: Could I just sit with you guys?
Janis: I actually don’t know. We’ve never been asked that question before. Could she?
Damian: We are very exclusive, but I think we can make an exception.
Cady: [Cafeteria room lights suddenly dims dramatically] What was that?
Janis: Oh, Lord, it’s the Queen Bee.
Damian: Don’t look her in the eye!
Regina: [Sings] My name is Regina George. And I am a massive deal, Fear me, love me. Stand and stare at me. [Referring to breasts] And these? These are real. I’ve got money and looks. I am, like, drunk with power. This whole school humps my leg. Like a Chihuahua, I’m the prettiest poison. You’ve ever seen. That filter you use Looks just like me. My name is Regina George. And I am a massive deal. I don’t care who you are. I don’t care. How you feel. [Talks to Cady] You. Yeah, you. Come here. Why don’t I know you?
Cady: I’m new. I just moved here from Kenya.
Regina: Shut up. Shut up!
Cady: I didn’t say anything.
Regina: You’re, like, really pretty.
Cady: Thanks.
Regina: So you agree? You think you’re really pretty?
Gretchen: Oh, I don’t know. You’re an international student. That is so fetch.
Cady: What is “fetch”?
Gretchen: It’s like slang from an old movie. Juno, I think. [Sighs]
Karen: Have you ever touched a tiger?
Cady: Uh, no, those aren’t indigenous to Kenya.
Karen: ‘Cause that’s one of my life goals. To not touch a tiger.
Karen: Hey, new girl! You want to see a trick?
Jason: [Approaches] I can guess any girl’s bra size. All you got to do is jump one time.
Gretchen: Ew, Jason!
Karen: Do me!
Regina: Oh, my God, Jason. You do not come to a party at my house with Gretchen and then skeeze on the new girl right in front of me. Do you want to have sex with him?
Cady: Oh, uh... no, thank you.
Regina: Okay, then it’s settled. Jason, no one thinks you’re funny. Okay? And this thing you’re doing where you lower your voice when you talk is making people really sad. Excuse me, anyone who would like Jason Weems to go back to his normal speaking voice, please raise your hand. [Entire lunchroom raises hand] Yeah.
Jason: Bitch.
Regina: Wow. You’re really gonna get noticed around here. We should help you. Can you give us some privacy for a sec?
Cady: Oh. Yeah, sure.
Janis: [Gesturing from table with Damian] I have your lunch!
Regina: All right. So, we never really do this, but... you’re invited to eat lunch with us for the rest of the week.
Cady: Oh. Um... That’s okay.
Karen: On Wednesdays, we wear pink.
Cady: They want me to have lunch with them all week.
Janis: [Chuckles] That is tits!
Damian: She means “that’s great.”
Cady: I don’t really get why you guys hate them so much. Regina seems kind of cool.
Janis: No, no... [chuckles] Regina George is not cool. She’s a scum-sucking life ruiner.
Damian: Janis hates Regina because when we were in sixth grade, she told everybody that she was–
Janis: Hey, Damian!
Damian: What?
Janis: Shall we not?
Damian: I am providing context.
Janis: Caddy? You should have lunch with them and then report back and tell us every stupid, moronic thing they said.
Cady: Spy on them? That’s bad.
Janis: No! Look at us. Would we ever ask you to do something bad? [Janis and Damian smile at her in anticipation]
Cady: Uh... Okay. Yes! Do you have a pink shirt I can borrow?
Janis: No!
Damian: Yes! What shade?
Ms. Norbury: Welcome to A.P. Calculus. Congratulations. You know more math than 85% of Americans. But you will not rest on your laurels this year. I plan to push you. So let’s get started. Chapter One, “Limits and Their Properties.” What the heck are limits, you say? If I write out the equation,“The limit as x approaches two of [x + 1],” the function is what we’re taking the limit of. I don’t expect you to know how to do this yet.
Cady: The limit equals three.
Ms. Norbury: That’s right. Let’s try another one. Find the value of k for which the following limit exists.
Cady: K equals negative three.
Student: Damn, girl!
Ms. Norbury: Wow.
Aaron: [Turns around in front of her and Cady is smitten] Are you trying to make the rest of us feel dumb?
Cady: No, I... I’m not trying to. It’s just, uh, happening.
Aaron: Oh, okay, it’s like that. All right, um, well... challenge accepted.
Mrs. Norbury: Hey, do you have time to go over derivatives for a minute?
Cady: Oh, um... no, not today.
Mrs. Norbury: Cady? Um... You’ve failed your last five quizzes. Is everything okay?
Cady: I’m... I’m sorry. I’ll just try harder.
Mrs. Norbury: Okay, because if you need extra help, there’s a Mathletes meeting starting in a couple minutes.
Cady: I can’t. I’m sorry. I have to go to my friend Regina’s house. We’re doing a dance in the talent show.
Mrs. Norbury: “Rockin’ Around the Pole”?
Cady: Yeah, how did you know?
Mrs. Norbury: They do it every year. It’s like a...
Cady: Tradition?
Mrs. Norbury: Recurring nightmare. Okay, I could probably get Kevin to tutor you.
Cady: Well, Aaron’s tutoring me now, so…
Mrs. Norbury: Oh, he’s tutoring you? Sure, okay, well, let Aaron know that the weird thing with your quizzes is that all the work is right and only the answers are wrong.
Cady: Huh. Huh.
Mrs. Norbury: Cady, I am not gonna stop pushing you, because I’m a pusher. And I know you’re smarter than this. Maybe I should just push your seat away from Aaron’s.
