Quotes 

• Brooke Morgan : [after she lost her job as student council president]  Totally ruined! Totally humiliated in front of the whole school! And Kelly set it up! She pretends to be my friend and then she turns around and stabs me in the back!

  Theresa Morgan : Maybe there's some sort of explanation.

  Brooke Morgan : Of course there's an explanation! Kelly planned the whole thing! She stole Olaf's notes, then she gave them to her sister, her sister used them to write my paper. Kelly put them in my locker and phoned the principal. How could she do this to me? How could she smile in my face and then turn around and then...?

  Brooke Morgan : [starts to cry needing help] 

  Brooke Morgan : What am I supposed to do? I'm the laughing stock in front of the entire school. Theresa, what am I supposed to do?

  Theresa Morgan : I'm really sorry. I have to go.

  Brooke Morgan : [still crying]  Please.

  Theresa Morgan : I'm sorry.

  Theresa Morgan : [leaves Brooke in tears and Brooke starts to throw a pillow but doesn't have the nerve] 

• Kelly : [Smug that she got Brooke fired from her job as student council president]  Olaf, it's incredible!

  Olaf : What's incredible?

  Kelly : They found your geography notes.

  Olaf : Who has?

  Kelly : Someone phoned the principal. No one knows who exactly but whoever it was told him where the notes were hidden. So he went to look and there they were.

  Olaf : Where?

  Kelly : In Brooke's locker. And wait it gets even better. Because Brooke's geography paper was based on those notes.

  Courtney Simpson : I can't believe it. You mean?

  Kelly : Brooke got hauled down to the principal's office and now she is in major trouble. They're threatening to suspend her from school. At the very least she's gonna be on academic probation for the rest of the year and that means no extracurricular activities especially ones like running for student council president.

  Brooke Morgan : [horrified about losing her job as student council president]  You did this to me.

  Kelly : Excuse me?

  Brooke Morgan : Don't play that game with me. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

  Kelly : Gee, Brooke, I'm afraid I don't. Oh, oh, you think I stole Olaf's notes and hid them in your locker after writing your geography paper. I mean does this make any sense? After all, it's your paper, Brooke which means you wrote it, right?

  Courtney Simpson : Is this true?

  [to Brooke angrily] 

  Courtney Simpson : I tried to like you, Brooke! I really did! I even tried to look up to you! But after this, boy, what a great student president you would have made!

  [Brooke runs home] 

• Kelly : Have you seen her?

  Theresa Morgan : About an hour ago.

  Kelly : How is she doing?

  Theresa Morgan : Really bad.

  Kelly : Good!

  Theresa Morgan : How can you say that, Kelly? I mean, she's totally crushed.

  Kelly : But that's exactly what we wanted, isn't it?

  Theresa Morgan : No! I wanted to teach her a lesson. But you should have seen her. She was almost crying and...

  [notices Brooke overhearing their whole conversation] 

  Theresa Morgan : Oh my god. Brooke!

  Brooke Morgan : So that's what happened, is it? You helped her plan the whole thing.

  Theresa Morgan : No, I didn't!

  Kelly : True enough. But you knew all about it and you didn't say a word.

  Theresa Morgan : I couldn't stand to see you being so dishonest, Brooke. I used to admire you but then...

  Brooke Morgan : You betrayed me. My little sister and my best friend. Well, so now I know where things stand.

  Theresa Morgan : I only wanted to teach you a lesson. I just...

  Brooke Morgan : Save, your breath, Theresa! I don't discuss things with traitors.

  Theresa Morgan : Brooke.

  Brooke Morgan : Oh, don't you worry about me. This won't keep me down for long and let me tell you something else. I'll pay you back. Whatever it takes, I'll pay both of you back!

  [runs off] 

• Kelly : What's up?

  Brooke Morgan : Oh, nothing. Miss Leddingham just gave me this. It's a note from the principal. He wants me to see him in his office.

  Kelly : What's going on? You think you're in some sort of trouble?

  Brooke Morgan : Of course not! He probably just saw my posters in the hall and he wanted to congratulate me on running for president.

  Kelly : Oh, I see. Sure, that must be it. For a moment there, I was starting to get worried that you might be in some sort of trouble.

  Brooke Morgan : What sort of trouble would I be in?

  Kelly : Oh, none! None at all. It's just a relief to know that you're not. Say hi to Mr. Zimmerman for me.

  [leaves] 

• Kelly : Nobody has seen her yet. So it looks like she's staying home again.

  Brooke Morgan : Maybe she's just sick.

  Kelly : Not a chance! She's just hiding in her bedroom. Who knows? Another couple of days of this and she just may drop out of school.

  Brooke Morgan : Want to hear something bizarre? I'm almost starting to feel sorry for her.

  Kelly : You feel sorry for Ashley?

  Brooke Morgan : I said I almost feel sorry for her. Don't worry, I'll get over it. Besides, it's totally her own fault, isn't it? She's the one that cheated on the test. So she doesn't deserve sympathy from us.

  Kelly : Absolutely! Oh, by the way, have you turned in that geography paper in yet?

  Brooke Morgan : This afternoon.

  Kelly : It's a pretty good paper, isn't it? Worth every cent you paid for.

  Brooke Morgan : Forget the paper. Let's just see the posters.

  Kelly : What do you think?

  Brooke Morgan : I guess it will do. Well, what are you waiting for? Start putting them up.

  Kelly : Absolutely, Brooke! Right away!

• Brooke Morgan : Do you have to keep spying on me like that?

  Theresa Morgan : I wasn't spying.

  Brooke Morgan : Regular people knock and say hi. Spies lurk. You were lurking.

  Theresa Morgan : I was not. Is that your geography paper?

  Brooke Morgan : All 12 pages.

  Theresa Morgan : Must have been a lot of work for Kelly's sister.

  Brooke Morgan : Oh, yes! I'm sure it was. You're gonna keep your mouth shut, aren't you?

  Theresa Morgan : I always do, don't I?

  Brooke Morgan : Well, today is the day. The official announcement that I am running for student council president.

  Theresa Morgan : Sounds exciting.

  Brooke Morgan : Oh, I think so. You wouldn't of course.

  Theresa Morgan : Congratulations! Good luck.

  Brooke Morgan : You don't mean a word of that. So why say it? I mean what's the point in being a hypocrite?

  Theresa Morgan : I don't know. Maybe it's just a habit I picked up from you.
