Meena Paroom quotes from Cory in the House

Meena

(hurt) I am not going to kiss you. (everyone gasps in shock) You're a jerk. (everyone gasps again) You fixed this contest, which, by the way, is illegal! (everyone gasps again) I would never kiss someone like you even if you ripped off your shirt. (everyone gasps again; Meena storms off the stage, then storms right back) Which, by the way, was...stupid.

You forgot your Yak back pack in the limo. You're not ashamed of it, are you?

(Pointing at the CD) What is that?.

Meena

It's just a CD.

(after reading the label "Cory's hot jams" on the CD) Who is this Cory? And why are his jams so hot?

Cory

(Raising his hand) That's me sir. And the secret to my CD is a little old school, a little new school, and a sprinkle of funk. You know what I mean?

Thanks, but you can keep your funky sprinkles. Meena has a lot of traditional Bahavian music to listen to.

Meena

But Father, how many times can we listen to Ickbob, master of the nose flute?!

(angrily) He is a master for a reason!

Cory

Stickler, man, why are you always spying on us?

Stickler

I prefer to call it reconnaissance. It's French.

Meena

It's creepy.

Newt

(After tasting the Nakishka) You know, I don't say this often, but AWESOME!

Cory

(to Meena) did you ever thought of selling these things?

Meena

Oh No, I just make them for holidays.

Cory

Well with your baking skills and my business skills, everyday's gonna' be a holiday. Its gonna' be called pay day.

Meena

Father, what are you doing up there?

Cory

He was worried about you.

I'll handle this! (to Meena) I was worried about you.

Meena

Poom-shlaka-laka!

Sophie

Shlaka-laka-poom!

Meena

Come in.

Cory

Come in? No, no, you're supposed to say, "Who's there?"

Meena

Well, why would I do that? I know it's you.

Cory

Oh, my goodness!

Newt

You're not gonna believe this, but I've got a date with a brilliant, beautiful girl who really likes me.

Cory

All right, man, that's awesome!

Newt

No! It's so not awesome!

Cory

Why?

Newt

Because! She's, like, the smartest girl in the universe! Maybe even in America!

Meena

Then why'd you say yes?

Newt

Because I got nervous and couldn't think of that other word, um...

Meena

"No?"

Newt

Exactly! This is a disaster! A fiasco! A quagmire of epic proportions!

Cory

But you couldn't think of "no?"

Meena

Cory, what is going on? You're acting like such a---a...

Cory

(dejectedly) Weenie?

Meena

Well, I was going to say "yak-butt."

Meena

Oh, look! A shooting star! (points up to the sky where a shooting star is passing over the trio) They say if you make a wish on a shooting star, it'll come true.

Cory

(looks up) I wish I was President. Then I could do things my way.
