[edit] Sam Montgomery
- [to Austin] You turned out to be exactly who I thought you were. I never pretended to be somebody else. It's been me all along. And it was me who was hurt in front of everybody. Look, I didn't come here to yell at you, okay? I came to tell you, I know what it feels like to be afraid to show who you are. I was. But I'm not anymore. And the thing is, I don't care what people think about me... because I believe in myself. And I know that things are gonna be okay. But even though I have no family, and no job, and no money for college...it's you that I feel sorry for. I know that the guy who sent those e-mails is somewhere down inside of you, but I can't wait for him. Because waiting for you is like waiting for rain in this drought: useless and disappointing.
- Maybe this whole relationship is just better off in cyberspace.
- [narrating] It was the kind of place where diet was a four letter word, and grease came at no additional charge.
- [ending monologue] As for Austin and me, well, I finally got my cell phone back. We ended up going to Princeton together, and we lived happily ever after. Well, at least for now. Hey, I'm just a freshman!
[edit] Fiona
- [to Sam]Sweetheart, now that you're old enough there's something I've always wanted to tell you and I think you're ready to hear it: you're not very pretty and you're not very bright. I'm so glad we had that talk.
- [about Botox]Oh my God, my face is back!
[edit] Others
- Sam's Dad: Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
- Carter: Have no fear! Zorro is here... [slight pause] AND HE'S GOT THE KEYS TO HIS DAD'S MERCEDES!
- Shelby: [Sam walks down the main stairs into the dance] Love her dress. Hate her.
- Carter: Anything is possible if you just believe.
- Austin: I live in a world full of people pretending to be someone they're not. But when I talk to you I'm the guy I wanna be.
- Fiona: [To Rhonda] [Bitting her freshly manicured nail] I'm a very appealing person.
[edit] Dialogue
- Shelby: What can I get here that has no sugar, no carbs, and is fat free?
- Sam: Water.
- Austin: You need a wax.
- Sam: Excuse me?
- Austin: [laughs] I meant the car.
- Austin: Sam! Okay, I know you think that I'm just some...
- Sam: Coward? Phony?
- Austin: Okay, just listen.
- Sam: No, you listen. You turned out to be exactly who I thought you were. I never pretended to be somebody else. It's been me all along. And it was me who was hurt in front of everybody. Look, I didn't come here to yell at you, okay? I came to tell you that I know what it feels like to be afraid to show who you are. I was, but I'm not anymore. And the thing is, I really don't care what people think about me... because I believe in myself. And I know that things are gonna be okay. But even though I have no family, and no job, and no money for college... it's you that I feel sorry for.
- David: Heads up! Yo, five minutes.
- Austin: I'm coming!
- Sam: I know that guy that sent those emails is somewhere inside of you, but I can't wait for him... because waiting for you is like waiting for rain in this drought. Useless and disappointing.
- [walks away]
- Austin: SAM!
- [punches locker]
- Sam: Terry? Are you Nomad?
- Terry: Nomad? Indeed. I have traveled through time and space to find you. Now join me in the mating dance of Zion!
- Rhonda: [to Carter, who repeatedly called her "Girlfriend"] Call me girlfriend one more time.
- Carter: Okay, sorry.
- Sam: Carter, what are you wearing?
- Carter: What? This is my Snoop-dizzle look!
- Sam: Don't you know who I am?
- Austin: Of course I do. You're Princeton Girl. You're the girl I've been waiting to meet. I know exactly who you are! What's your name?
- Sam: So... Who'd you guys pay to make your cars so dirty?
- Brianna: Excuse me? Like, what are you, the Dirt Police?
- Gabriella: [laughs] Yeah! The Dirt Police! Like, excuse me miss, do you know how fast your dirt was going?
- Brianna: You should've stopped at the Dirt Police.
- Fiona: No honey, leave those on! The lawn's looking a little brown.
- Sam: You know we're supposed to be conserving water! We're in the middle of a drought!
- Fiona: Droughts are for poor people, you think J-Lo has a brown lawn? People who use extra water have extra class.
- Sam: [Carter and Sam are driving back towards the diner and Carter drives slow with his Dad's Mercedes] Carter, you could have totally made that light.
- Carter: Uh, FYI Sam, yellow means slow down, not speed up.
- Sam: I need "The Fast and the Furious", not "Driving Miss Daisy".
- Fiona: Where are your skates? They're part of the uniform.
- Rhonda: Fiona, if I wanted to look like a clown, I'd join the circus.
- Fiona: If you were part of my circus, I'd have you wiping the elephant butts with a "wet one."
- [Brianna and Gabriella tell their mother they did not become Homecoming Queen]
- Fiona: I am very, very, very, very upset about this.
- Brianna: You don't look upset.
- Fiona: Oh, it's the Botox. I can't show emotion for another hour and a half.
- [Brianna and Gabriella reveal Sam's secrets to Shelby in an emotional way]
- Gabriella: [crying] ...And then she told us that... [sniffles] ...she was going to try and steal Austin away from you if that was the last thing she did.
- Brianna: [sobbing] Our stepsister has always been jealous of you! [blows nose loudly with full force]
- Shelby: [impatiently] Go on.
