Melinda Sordino: It's my first day of high school. I have seven new notebooks,
a skirt I hate, and a stomach ache.

a strong message of abstinence. So we'll now be the home of the Merryweather Hornets.
Random cheerleader: What are we supposed to cheer? We are the hornets, the
horny horny hornets?
Melinda Sordino: My English teacher has no face. I call her Hairwoman.
Melinda Sordino: [voiceover] All that crap you hear on TV about communication
and expressing feelings is a lie. No one really cares what you have to say.
Heather: So here's the plan. We join 5 clubs. One for every day of the week.
Not like Latin club, but cool stuff. What do you wanna join? Hey, maybe we can tutor
kids at the elementary school. What about your friends from last year? Don't you know
Nicole?
Melinda Sordino: [voiceover] I wonder how long it would take for anyone to
notice if I just stopped talking.
Melinda Sordino: Ivy's being nice. Say something. My throat is dry. It hurts.
Melinda Sordino: I hate winter. I've lived in the midwest my whole life and I hate
winter. It starts too early and it ends too late. Why doesn't everyone just move to
Florida?
Heather: This is really awkward. No matter what... no, I don't wanna say that.
I mean, we kinda paired up at the beginning of school when I was new and didn't know
anyone and that was really really sweet of you. But I think it's time that we both
admit to each other that we're just very different people. I mean, I have my modeling
and I like to shop...
Melinda Sordino: I like to shop.
Heather: You don't like anything. You're the most depressed person I've ever
met. And excuse me for saying this but I think you need professinal help.
Melinda Sordino: So you're blowing me off because I'm a little depressed?
Heather: Once you get through this "life sucks" phase, I'm sure lots of people
will wanna be your friend. But for right now, I don't think we should have lunch
together.
Melinda Sordino: It's time for a mental health day. So conjugate this: I cut
class. You cut class. He/she/it cuts class.
Melinda Sordino: I should probably tell someone. Just... *anyone*. Get it over
with. Blurt it out.
Melinda Sordino: It's hard to sleep at home. How long would it take for the
nurses to figure out I don't belong here? Would they let me rest for a few days?
Melinda Sordino: It happened. There's no avoiding it. No forgetting.
Melinda Sordino: Why should I worry about Rachel?

nine years. That counts for something.
Melinda Sordino: She's a traitor and a witch.
Melinda Sordino: [alter ego] She doesn't know what happened.
Melinda Sordino: She'll hate me.

Melinda Sordino: I hope he breaks her heart.
Hairwoman: A revolutionary is only as good as his analysis. What does that
mean?
[Melinda raises her hand]
Hairwoman: Melinda, better late than never. Why is a revolutionary only as
good as his or her analysis?
Melinda Sordino: I think you should know what you stand for, not just what
you're against. You should be able to show how things can be better.
Hairwoman: That's pretty darn good.
Melinda Sordino: Here's what I learned in bio. If the seed is planted too
deep it doesn't warm up in time. Once the plant surfaces it sprouts leaves so it
can absorb more sun. If someone picks the flower the plant grows another bloom to
produce more seeds.
David Petrakis: Listen, the suffragettes were all about speaking up. You can't
speak up for your rights and be silent. I thought what you did was cool but you
can't make a difference unless you speak up.
Melinda Sordino: Do you lecture all your friends like this?
David Petrakis: Only the ones I like.
Heather: I *hate* being a Martha. You were *so* right not to join. I mean all
I am is their little slave. Ok, it was supposed to be me and Meg and Siobhan
decorating the Holiday Inn for prom and now Meg and Siobhan can't do it and I'm
totally screwed! Mel, you *have* to help me! They have some sales meeting in there
until like three but then they'll let us start and I *know* we can do it!
[Melinda gives a blank stare]
Heather: You are *so* great! I owe you *big* time! What if I help you
redecorate your room? I know, a nice seafoam green!
Melinda Sordino: [hesitates] No...
Heather: Ok, or... something *rich* like, like eggplant!
Melinda Sordino: No, I mean, I won't help you.
Heather: But you have to.
Melinda Sordino: No, I don't.
Heather: But why?
Melinda Sordino: [now angry] Because I was nice to you... in the beginning of
school... when I didn't even like you. And you blew me blew me off! Because you're a
self centered social climber! And you know what? I know what I wanna do to my room
and it doesn't involve "eggplant". I think you should go!
Melinda Sordino: Gym should be illegal. It's humiliating.
Melinda Sordino: There is no point talking to my ex-friends. Our clan the
plain Janes has been absorbed by rival groups. Nicole hangs out with the jocks.
Rachel went all Euro. Ivy straddles two crowds: the Goths and the Marthas. And then
there's me. I'm clanless.
Melinda Sordino: It's impossible to listen to Ms. Kane. Her voice sounds
like an engine that won't turn over. Plus she laughs at her own jokes.
Melinda Sordino: Heather has found a clan. The Marthas. Very Connecticut.
Very prep. I suspect money changed hands.
Melinda Sordino: Dave Petrakis invited me over to do lab homework. I said no.
No thanks. I just... I can't.
Melinda Sordino: It's firewood. Get it?
Melinda Sordino: Today is career day. Am I A: a helper B: a doer C: a planner
or D: a dreamer.
Hairwoman: Every word Hawthorne wrote, every comma, every paragraph break,
these were done on purpose. It is our job to try and figure out what he's really
trying to say.
Melinda Sordino: [voiceover] Why couldn't he just say what he meant? Would
they pin a scarlet letter on his chest? "S" for straightforward?
Hairwoman: The house with the chunks of glass in its walls, is a symbol of
what? Well, it would reflect, sparkle? Come on people, the house symbolizes...?
Rachel Bruin: How do you know that's what he meant to say? I mean, you could
just make all that up, it's just a story.
Hairwoman: This is Hawthorne, one of America's greatest novelists. And not
that it makes any difference but I wrote my dissertation on Hawthorne.
Rachel Bruin: Fine, but, I thought we were all supposed to have opinions here.
I mean it's a good story especially when Hester and that guy fall in love. But I
don't really believe in symbolism. I mean you can just make all that up.
Hairwoman: [about to cry] Alright class, I want you all to write a 500 word
essay on symbolism. And then... turn it in!
Melinda Sordino: [voiceover] Poor Hairwoman. I hope they send her to a
conference or something. I'm ready to help pay for a sub.
