Shonda Whipple: Chelsea

Quotes 

• Chelsea : [envious at sight of stunner Sable making grand entrance into cafeteria, dramatic cascade of blond tresses]  Who's that?

  Barry : That must be the new girl.

  Chelsea : How come all the new girls gotta look like that?

  Ryan Malloy : Well, a lot of new girls don't, but nobody notices them.

  Tiffany Malloy : [wistfully]  Look at her, flouncing around with those tight, skimpy little clothes... That's my job... I sense trouble.

  Ryan Malloy : All right, we'll see how dangerous she is. Somebody give me a quarter.

  [Barry does, and Ryan nonchalantly ambles over to his blond target, whistling as he approaches the girl in the short black dress who is very intently showing off her devastatingly long legs, but looking away in unattainable way] 

  Chelsea : [breathlessly]  She is so pretty.

  Tiffany Malloy : [worriedly anxious]  She's pretty? She's pretty? You're sitting at my table, you're supposed to be my friends!

  [breaking:] 

  Tiffany Malloy : All I'm looking for is a little support from my table!

  Barry : Oh, we love you, you're great, honey!

  [with Chelsea echoing this sentiment, mouthing a sycophantic kiss] 

  Tiffany Malloy : [pacified]  Now, Barry, I'll need some information.

  Barry : I'll go see what's coming out of the tom-toms.

  [rushes over to the next table] 

  Barry : Tom! Tom!

  [quick conversation with two informed boys each named Tom, then scurrying back to Tiffany] 

  Barry : That's Sable O'Brien, her Dad's a superstar, he's in jail for embezzling millions!

  Tiffany Malloy : [mulling this over, talking to herself]  She's tall, she's blond, she's got a jail-bird for a father, with my luck, her mother's a cripple.

  [eyes new girl warily] 

  Sable O'Brien : Excuse me?

  [speaking down to Ryan, who is 'searching for his lost quarter' up close to her smooth, sleek legs] 

  Sable O'Brien : Excuse me?

  [gets up, smiling] 

  Sable O'Brien : You remind me of my dog Pookie!

  [scratching Ryan, to his delight, who acts like happy dog] 

  Sable O'Brien : What a good boy! Yeah, good boy!

  [Tiffany comes over] 

  Tiffany Malloy : Hi!

  Sable O'Brien : [to dog-boy Ryan]  Sit!

  Tiffany Malloy : As the most popular girl in school, I would like to welcome you.

  Sable O'Brien : [smiling]  Thank you. But I'm not the most popular girl in school... yet!

  Ryan Malloy : [imitating cat, heralding impending cat-fights]  R-owr! R-owr!
