- Virginia Wainwright: God, you've got a lot of nerve.
- Etienne Vercures: That's not all I've got. Want to see?
- [Hal phones the cottage, where Virginia's birthday party is being arranged]
- Hal Wainwright: Estelle, I've been trying to call you all day. I can't get home until the weekend. Tell Ginny I'll make it up to her.
- Estelle Wainwright: Tell her yourself, you bastard.
- Estelle Wainwright: [to Virginia] It's your loving father.
- [last lines]
- Lieutenant Tracy: Dear God, what have you done?
- Virginia Wainwright: [singing] Happy birthday to me. Happy birthday to me. Happy birthday dear Ginny. Happy birthday to me.
- Mrs. Patterson: Bernadette O'Hara, do you have any idea what time it is? Where are you going?
- Bernadette O'Hara: I was just going up to the village to meet some of the kids at the inn.
- Mrs. Patterson: You mean for the second home for the Crawford top 10, don't you? Isn't that what the elite of the senior class like to call themselves?
- Bernadette O'Hara: I guess so.
- Mrs. Patterson: I beg your pardon?
- Bernadette O'Hara: Yes, Mrs. Patterson.
- Mrs. Patterson: Do you know, Bernadette, if you and the other so-called members of the top 10 would spend half the time on your books that you do down at that inn, you could all be in Harvard tomorrow?
- Bernadette O'Hara: Yes, Mrs. Patterson.
- [Virgina hangs up the phone after speaking to her father]
- Estelle Wainwright: Why did you say that, Virginia - that your friends were here?
- Virginia Wainwright: I didn't want him to feel bad.
- Estelle Wainwright: Your father's never kept a promise in his life. Well, where are they - your little friends from the Crawford Academy?
- Virginia Wainwright: They're not coming.
- Estelle Wainwright: What?
- Virginia Wainwright: There's a party at Ann Thomerson's house. I heard them talking.
- Estelle Wainwright: Why didn't they invite you?
- Virginia Wainwright: Mom, they don't even know me.
- Estelle Wainwright: Those goddamn little snots. We'll show them. If they won't come to our party, we'll go to theirs.
- Estelle Wainwright: Bernadette O'Hara, Etienne Vercures, Steve Maxwell, Alfred Morris, Greg Hellman and Ann Thomerson - six of the richest. Nothing but the best for my little girl. It's almost 5:00. Did you tell them to come at 4:00?
- Virginia Wainwright: Yes, Mom.
- Estelle Wainwright: I suppose this is what they call "fashionably late".
- Virginia Wainwright: Listen, David, please don't say anything about this to anybody. I don't want to get Rudi in trouble.
- Dr. David Faraday: No, I'm not gonna say anything to anybody, but I must admit some of your friends have a macabre sense of humor. I just hope these kids aren't having an adverse effect on you.
- Virginia Wainwright: They're not.

- Mrs. Patterson: [to her attacking dog] Winston! Winston! Winston, just stop it, bad boy. Sit down. Sit!
- Bernadette O'Hara: Oh, Mrs. Patterson.
- Mrs. Patterson: Bernadette O'Hara, do you have any idea what time it is? Where are you going?
- Bernadette O'Hara: Well, I, I was just going up to the village to meet some of the kids at the inn.
- Mrs. Patterson: You mean the second home for the Crawford top 10, don't you?
