Nikki Cox: Tiffany Malloy

Quotes 

• Tiffany Malloy : [Mom has appeared in school cafeteria, big embarrassment]  What are you doing here?

  Jennie Malloy : I read in the school paper they're casting 'Romeo and Juliet.' I want you to try out for the part of Juliet. Did I ever tell you I tried out for Juliet once my sophomore year?

  Tiffany Malloy : No, but I'm afraid you're going to... Goodbye!

  [tries rushing off] 

  Jennie Malloy : I lost the part to Charlene Tilton.

  [hissing:] 

  Jennie Malloy : She was nothing! Blond, petite. Petite? You know what petite means? It means there is no place for the weight to go. If I got that part of Juliet, I'd be a star today, then I'd be doing infomercials when I was washed up. Nothing cheesy going like that belly-buster, no, something classy like that thing that cuts your hair with a vacuum.

• Tiffany Malloy : I got the part of Juliet in some stupid play.

  Jack Malloy : Oh, yeah? What play?

• Tiffany Malloy : [stage repetition]  "Oh, Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name." Oh, come on, what a cliche!

  [clears throat] 

  Tiffany Malloy : "Oh, Romeo, Romeo...!"

  Jennie Malloy : Cut! Honey, you must emote.

  Tiffany Malloy : Emote? What do you mean, Mom?

  Jennie Malloy : What I mean is suck it in, stick 'em out, and speak loud!

• Jennie Malloy : Tiffany, I'm sorry I locked you in the bathroom.

  Tiffany Malloy : Oh, that's all right. I'm sorry I love Daddy more than you.
