• Duckie : Well, that's very nice. I'm glad. Well here's... here's the point, Andie. I'm not particularly concerned with whether or not you like me, because I live to like you and... and I can't like you anymore. So... so when you're feeling real low and... and dirty, and your heart is splattered all over hell, don't look to me to pump you back up 'cause... 'cause... 'cause maybe for the first time in your life I WON'T BE THERE!

  Andie : I can't believe you're saying this.

• Andie : I'm just gonna go in, walk in, walk out and come home.

  Jack : You sure?

  Andie : I just wanna let them know that they didn't break me.

• Steff : I want to know when it is that you and I are gonna get together and do something?

  Andie : Try never.

  Steff : Well, I'm talking about more than just sex here.

  Andie : No you're not.

  Steff : You know, I've liked you for four years and you treat me like shit, you know. I don't understand that? What's the problem?

  Andie : Can you get oof of my car?

  Steff : You know, I've been out with a lot of girls at this school. I don't see what makes you so different.

  Andie : I have taste.

• Andie : You know you're talking like that just because I'm going out with Blane

  Duckie : His name is Blane? Oh! That's a major appliance, that's not a name!

• Blane : How are you doing?

  Andie : Why haven't you called me?

  Blane : Oh, I got nailed for the stable thing. I guess the groom saw us. It's against the rules.

  Andie : I called you three times and i left messages.

  Blane : Yeah? Well I didn't get them. My family... they're irresponsible about that stuff, you know?

  Andie : I waited for you this morning.

  Blane : No.

  Andie : What about prom, Blane?

  Andie : No! What abot prom?

  Blane : What?

  Andie : Just say it. I wanna hear you say it.

  Blane : Andie, please, all right?

  Andie : I wanna hear you say it.

  [Andie pushes him against a locker]

  Duckie : No, no! Three, four... hours.

• Blane : What do you want to hear?

  Andie : Tell me!

  Blane : What?

  Andie : You're ashamed to be seen with me.

  [Andie hits Blane] 

  Andie : Just say it!

  [Andie hits him again] 

  Andie : Just tell me the truth!

  Blane : You don't understand that it has nothing at all do with you.

  [Andie runs away] 

  Blane : [wipes a tear]  Andie!

• Iona : Does he have - strong lips?

  Andie : How can you tell?

  Iona : Do you feel it in your knees?

  Andie : I felt it everywhere.

  Iona : Strong lips.

  [laughs] 

  Iona : Talk about lips. I mean, I'm old enough to be his mother, but when the Duck laid that kiss on me last night, I swear to God, my thighs just went up in flames! He must practice on melons or something.

• Andie : May I admire you?

  Duckie : If you wish!

• Andie : If somebody doesn't believe in me, I can't believe in them.

• Andie : What are you doing?

  Duckie : I had to use the powder room, so I figured I'd come in the back.

  Andie : I'm sure there are bathrooms all over the place!

  Duckie : I'm not nine, Andie, I know that.

• Andie : I don't know what I'm doing!

  Iona : Wishful make-upping!

• Duckie : Now, what now?

  Andie : Bed.

  Duckie : Yours or mine? Ours?

  Andie : Nice try.

• Andie : I'm really sorry for bumming out the night for you.

  Blane : [laughs]  You didn't bum out anything. I had a great time.

  Andie : [accusing]  Liar.

  Blane : [looking her in the eye]  I was with you. I had a great time. If I was in a Turkish prison, I'd have a great time with you.

  Andie : I don't know... it's just too weird for me, you know? Maybe it shouldn't happen.

  Blane : What? You and me?

  [pauses] 

  Blane : Well. You know, maybe it doesn't happen all the time, but that doesn't mean it isn't right. Doesn't mean you can't try.

• Andie : Okay. Make my day. I want all the gory details. The mingling breath, the pounding heart, the steamy windows. I want the whole scoop.

  Iona : Nothing?

  Andie : Well, not nothing. I mean, I kissed him.

• Andie : Are you going to class today?

  Duckie : I don't know if I'm emotionally ready.

  Andie : Gym.

  Benny Hanson : Your name's Jim?

• Iona : Oh, why can't we start old and get younger? I envy you. I really *envy* you!

  Andie : Iona, you're gonna OD on nostalgia.

• Jack : When was the last time I told you how beautiful you are?

  Andie : About yesterday.

• Jack : What would I do without you nagging me all the time?

  Andie : You really want me to answer that?

• Jack : Is school good?

  Andie : No. But, it never is.

• Duckie : This is a really volcanic ensemble you're wearing. It's really marvelous.

  Andie : Volcanic?

  Duckie : Well, you know, hot, dangerous.

• Blane : Hey, let's go upstairs, huh? Come on.

  Andie : Look, I didn't come here to get you off. Okay? That was not my idea.

• Andie : I can't believe I actually felt bad for you tonight, retarded little dwarf!

• Iona : Oh, Shit! why can't i do this?

  Andie : You have to hit the subtotal button I keep telling you that.
