Amanda quotes from Scarecrow and Mrs. King

Lee

Right. I've got a real problem here, I've got this kid that won't talk to me.

Amanda

By kid, do you mean one of those girls you date?

Amanda

Are you always this punchy in the morning?

Lee

Are you always this perky?

Amanda

Well, you know, I guess I'm just what you'd call a morning person. I guess you're just not what you'd call a morning person. Uh, look, are you sure you're set up to take care of a child? I mean, you know, they need...

Lee

Attention, someone to talk to?

Amanda

No, what they need is food, and you haven't got any.

Lee

Just what do you call that incredibly expensive Camembert?

Amanda

Moldy.

Amanda

How'd you guys do at the grocery store?

Good. The Fed here let me do all the shopping.

Amanda

Six frozen pizzas and a pound of brownies. That all you got?

We must've left the beer in the car.

Amanda

This is Lee Stetson. He is one of the top agents in the country. Now if you'll just untie us, he will rescue your parents and stop these people. Trust me.

If he's so hot, what's he doing tied up in a closet?

Amanda

Perfectly good question

Amanda

Well, I was just wondering ... shouldn't I know how to hit?

Billy

Excuse me?

Amanda

Well, shouldn't I have certain skills, you know, like self-defense, maybe know a few codes...

Billy

Amanda, surely you realise that your value to us is that of a civilian. I don't need another agent.

Francine

Were you to become a known operative, your usefulness would be over.

Lee

Yeah, it's great you don't know anything. The enemy could torture you for weeks and not get a thing.

Amanda

Oh, well, I appreciate that. But I don't think staying alive would compromise my usefulness too much.

Lee

I don't want the Princess to know you're one of us.

Amanda

Gee, I'm one of us.

Lee

I know I'll regret saying that

He's kinda cute.

Amanda

Who?

That agent, Mr. Stetson. The one in charge of security.

Amanda

Oh, him.

Yeah, him. Yeah, I notice he doesn't have a wedding ring on.

Amanda

Oh, no. No, I could never get involved with ... anybody in that line of work. That's, that's too dangerous.

Sometimes dangerous can be fun.

Oh-hoh!

Amanda

This is not an oh-hoh.

Oh.

Amanda

Uh-uh. No, no. No. I don't know what that man wants.

No?

Amanda

No!

Lee

Hi.

Amanda

I thought I was supposed to be undercover.

Lee

You are. Why? Is anything wrong?

Amanda

Oh, no, no, no, that was a very subtle performance you gave at the window. She thinks we're having a oh-hoh-hoh-hoh!

Lee

A what?

Amanda

You heard me. She thinks you're cute.

Lee

I am cute.

Amanda

Not that cute.

Lee

So, she said I was cute?

Amanda

She was under a lot of pressure.

Lee

Amanda, when you're undercover, it is not good procedure to look at me until the assignment is officially over. Does the, uh, princess know you're working with us?

Amanda

No, but I had to have a reason you were outside my window last night.

Lee

Ah, what did you come up with?

Amanda

I didn't come up with anything, she did.

Lee

Okay, what did she come up with?

Amanda

She thinks we're having a thing.

Lee

A thing?

Amanda

Eyes straight ahead, Scarecrow.

Amanda

Well, who picked these out?

Lee

The computer did. It's Delano's favorite colors and designer.

Amanda

Hmm. Did the computer also decide on the house?

Lee

Mm-hmm. Delano's favorite architect and décor.

Amanda

Quite some computer.

Lee

Yeah. The computer also suggests that you wear your hair up.

Amanda

Well, why don't you let the computer put the dress on and go out with him tonight, too?

Lee

It's way after midnight, Cinderella.

Amanda

What are you doing here?

Lee

Someone ripped off her microphone in the ladies' room, that left me with a lot of time to kill.

Amanda

Listen. I have to go home. I should change clothes.

Lee

Aren't you going to tell me about your evening?

Amanda

Well, there's nothing to tell. I did what your computer wanted me to do, and now it's time for me to slip into a phone booth and turn back into Amanda King.

Amanda

How'd you get me out of there?

Lee

I carried you.

Amanda

He carried me.

Dotty

Amanda?

Amanda

Yes, Mother?

Dotty

Somebody's here to see you.

Amanda

Oh, really? Who -- Oh, uh, Mother, this is Miss Desmond, she's one of my pet-sitting clients, I take care of her ... chimpanzee.

Dotty

Oh, really?

Amanda

Mm-hmm.

Dotty

Well, won't you sit down? Oh, I just thought it was awfully enterprising when Amanda told me that she was going to start this service, taking care of people's pets and plants. I mean, it's not exactly what I had in mind when she went to college, but, I mean after all, what does one do with a degree in American lit?

Scarecrow, I am astounded that you found your way back here. Your reputation is not exaggerated.

Amanda

Oh, no.

I cannot allow you to jeopardize my plans.

Lee

Look. She has nothing to do with this.

Tell the big fella to keep quiet.

Amanda

Quiet, big fella.
