Radio disc jockey: [on radio] Hi, everybody, this is your Cousin Brucie. Whoa! Our summer romances are in full bloom, and everybody, but everybody's in love. But cousins, here's a great song from The Four Seasons.
Baby: [voiceover] That was the summer of 1963 - when everybody called me Baby, and it didn't occur to me to mind. That was before President Kennedy was shot, before the Beatles came, when I couldn't wait to join the Peace Corps, and I thought I'd never find a guy as great as my dad. That was the summer we went to Kellerman's.

Penny: Oh, come on, ladies. God wouldn't have given you maracas if He didn't want you to shake 'em.

Penny: Go back to your playpen, Baby.

Johnny: Look, spaghetti arms. This is my dance space. This is your dance space. I don't go into yours, you don't go into mine. You gotta hold the frame.

Johnny: No, I mean the way he saved her. I mean, I... I could never do anything like that. That was somethin'. The reason people treat me like I'm nothin' is 'cause I'm nothin'.

Baby: Me? I'm scared of everything. I'm scared of what I saw, I'm scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I'm with you.

Johnny: Nobody puts Baby in a corner.

Marjorie: It's his first real vacation in six years, Max. Take it easy.
Max: Three weeks here, it'll feel like a year.

Baby: I carried a watermelon. [to herself] I carried a watermelon?!

Johnny: Just put your pickle on everybody's plate college boy and leave the hard stuff to me.

Lisa: I've been thinking about the Domino Effect. Now, if Vietnam falls, does that mean China's next?

Max: You know if it wasn't for this man I would be standing here dead.

Marjorie: [while watching Baby dance] I think she gets it from me.

Johnny: What's your real name, Baby?
Baby: Frances. For the first woman in the cabinet. [laughs]
Johnny: Frances. That's a real grown up name.

Stan: My god it's Cleopatra. I feel like such an asp.

Johnny: I'm gonna do my kind of dancin' with a great partner, who's not only a terrific dancer; somebody who's taught me that there are people willing to stand up for other people no matter what it costs them; somebody who's taught me about the kind of person I wanna be.

Baby: Oh, yes, as a matter of fact it is. We're supposed to do the show in two days, you won't show me the lift, I'm not sure of the turns I'm doing all this to save your ass when what I really want to do is drop you on it .

Neil: I have to say it. I'm known as the catch of the county.
Baby: I'm sure you are.
Neil: Just last week, I stole a girl from Jamie, the lifeguard, and he asked her, right in front of me, "What does he have that I don't?" And she said, "Two hotels."

Lisa: God, I'm so sick of this rain. Remind me never to take my honeymoon at Niagara Falls.
Marjorie: So, you go to Acapulco.

Lisa: Come on. You don't care about me. You wouldn't care if I humped the entire army... as long as we were on the right side Ho chi Minh Trail.

Dr Houseman: I know you weren't the one who got Penny in trouble.
Johnny: Yeah.
Dr Houseman: When I'm wrong, I say I'm wrong. [to Baby] You looked wonderful out there.
