Quotes
-
Chris : Look, man, I want to go, but if you haven't noticed, I'm black. Who's gonna want to go with me?
Joey Caruso : Maybe Bubbles the chimp has a sister.
Narrator : Unfortunately, she said no.
-
Greg Wuliger : I got a date to the dance.
Chris : With who?
Greg Wuliger : Jennifer.
Chris : Doesn't she hate you?
Greg Wuliger : Well, she does, but she also needs a math tutor. I told her I'd get her a "B", and she agreed to walk in with me and dance with me twice.
Narrator : In Greg's world, that was second base.

Carrie : [to Chris] So that's it? You cancel on me, you quit talking to me and I'm just supposed to be fine with that?
Chris : Look, I'm sorry. People were saying bad stuff about us. I didn't want to put you through that.
Carrie : So I'm not going to the dance because you can't take a little name-calling? What happened to "Bed-Stuy, do or die"? What's the worst they can call you? Stymie, Buckwheat, Rochester, Grady, Rollo, Junior Mint, Bosco, Chim Chim, Shoe Sole, Lakeside, Skillet, Count Chocula, Mudpie?
Chris : You done? Look, I was just trying to look out for you.
Carrie : If you were looking out for me, we'd still be going to the dance.
Chris : You don't mind going with a black guy?
Carrie : You're black? Why didn't anyone tell me? What was I thinking? If you really didn't want to go with me, all you had to do was say so. I don't even see why you asked.
Narrator : It's not so bad. A black girl would've burned my house down.
