Sep. 11th, 2003 02:06 amJust a random thought from the 80's. I love[d] Just the Ten of Us. I know this love stretched beyond fond warm fuzzy faded memories as USA used to have reruns for years [time off for good behaviour, I guess].
CINDY Next time I need a boy to pass Dad's dinner test, could I borrow him?
WENDY Cindy, think a minute.
CINDY Okay... Now what?
SHERRY Swear.
CINDY Dammit!
MARIE Connie, how's the review coming?
CONNIE It was the worst thing I've ever seen, and I watch a lot of television.
MARIE Including CBS? (Connie nods.) Wow...
COACH The library?
SHERRY I just report the lies. I don't make them up.
MARIE Cindy! Phone! ... It's Satan.
CINDY Satan who?
PRUITT Did you ever kill anyone with a spatula?
COACH No...
PRUITT Then welcome to the Burger Barn family
WOMAN I'm not Catholic myself, but I sure like a school system that breaks the spirit of young people.
MARIE What can I say, crossdressing amuse me. Is it a sin? Probably. Oh, no... (exit)
COACH When she finally cracks, I hope there are a lot of nice people around to help her.
MARIE With guys like this, anything can happen.
WENDY You're reading my mind.
CONNIE Short read.
WENDY Connie, can you settle an argument for us?
CONNIE Cindy's are bigger.
CONNIE Haven't you forgotten a little thing called the First Amendment? This is America.
ELIZ. America ends at that front door. This is Lubbockland, and I'm the evil queen.
SHERRY (reading from JR's script) "Skateboarding is the top sport of heterosexual boys."
CONNIE I thought Wendy was.
CONNIE Couldn't you at least have the decency to stay in the bedroom?
MARIE We left decency an hour ago.
CINDY Dad was right. Premarital sex does cause insanity.
ELIZ. What you did was worse. You pretended to have sex with a man.
MARIE I'm not the first woman to do that.
WENDY They think that Cindy's shape is a flashy neon sign going, "Open all night... We deliver... No waiting..."
ELIZ. You're beautiful, and I don't want you to ever doubt that.
CINDY I never have.
