[after Denise and Clair tell Theo what the real world is like] Your mother and your sister are absolutely correct. You see, we´re your family. We love you. We let you borrow money even you´re not qualified to pay it back. If you get out in the real world, it´s going to be different.
But when I get in the real world, I´m doing just fine, ´cause I´m gonna have a lot of money.
I hope you´re not waiting for me to die.
[Vanessa, Rudy and Cliff laugh at Theo]
Rudy[seriously talks about Theo´s debt to her] I want my quarter now!

Okay, here we go. "The Reptile Family." Sort of a who's who of snakes. [chuckles and give the book to Cliff]
Okay, here we are. [opens the book to the first page]
Rudy
[immediately points to the page] THAT'S IT! [short pause] That's it!
[in disbelief] This is the snake? [Rudy nods] That's an anaconda. It lives in Brazil.
Rudy, it's 25 feet long and weighs 200 pounds!
Rudy
That's what I saw.
I don't think this snake lives in the United States.
Rudy
It could come for a visit.

[After Rudy announces that she has a boyfriend, named Bud]
Now, Rudy, I thought you told me I was your boyfriend.
Rudy
You're too old!
[laughing] Cockroach, it's amazing! You get turned down by women of ALL ages!
Rudy
Smoking's not good for you. It makes your breath stink, it gets your lungs dirty, and then you die. Smoking also causes forest fires, which is why you never see animals smoke.
I think she gets the point, Rudy.
Rudy
None of MY friends smoke!
Rudy
Mom?
Rudy
This is the dress I'm wearing to Kelly's party, okay? Okay bye.
Rudy
Yes, mom.
Rudy
What for?
Come here. You know, just last month. We put that dress and all your summer clothes in a trunk and I told you it's getting too cold for you to wear them.
Rudy
Yesterday it was hot.
But I know but yesterday was an unusual day today it's 52 degrees.
Rudy
It's probably going to get hot when the party starts.
I don't think so, Rudy. The weatherman says it's gonna get colder so why don't you take that dress and put it back in the trunk.
Rudy
But this is my favorite dress. Can I wear it to the party please?
Mmm, I want you to dress warm.
Rudy
I am warm.
Well you're in the house. But Rudy if you go outside dressed like that you gonna catch cold.
Rudy
I don't care, as long as I can wear my dress.
I'm sorry, the answer's no.
Rudy
But I want to wear it.
Well I'm sorry sweetie, you're not wearing it.
Rudy
Yes I am.

I'm sorry. The answer is "no."
Rudy
But I wanna wear it.
Well, I'm sorry, sweetie. You're not wearing it.
Rudy
Yes I am.
Young lady... don't you talk back to me. A "no" is a "no," understand?
Rudy
But, Mommy, you're making me feel bad.
Oh, Rudy, if you don't listen to me, you're gonna feel much worse. Now take that dress, put it back in the trunk, and let's have no further discussion about it, please.
Rudy
I have one more question.
Rudy
Can I wear my dress to the party this one time? Please?
Rudy
But Mo--
Rudy! If I hear one more word out of you, you're not going to that party. I mean it.
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Stop that.
Rudy
What?
What? Haven't you ever heard of a glass?
Rudy
But, Daddy, I'm in a hurry. I'm going to Mrs. Hickson's house to play go fish.
