• Eddie : [noticing Babs' sorority pin]  Oh, the Pi Phi house. Well, I'll be around tonight about eight.

  Babs : Am I supposed to burst out cheering?

  Eddie : Not 'til after the first treatment.

  Babs : [sarcastically]  Oh, I can hardly wait.

  Eddie : Don't be impatient! Goodbye.

• Biff : You don't mean to tell me that an unprotected girl like yourself is going to be seen going to the campus candy store in broad daylight!

  Babs : Well, why not? Is it so terrible?

  Biff : Terrible? Why, I alone have dragged from that opiate-reeking atmosphere the bodies of innocent young girls; their sallow complexions give testimony to the lives they have lived. Sinful slaves to the chocolate drop. Shameful addicts to the bon-bons.

• Biff : Oh, have no fear. Tonight, at the stroke of eight, I will arrive at?

  Babs : Pi Phi house.

  Biff : And will I be welcome on the mat - outside?

  Babs : Em-hmm... and inside, too.

• Babs : [doorbell rings]  Oh, pardon me - I think that's for me.

  Eddie : Oh, are you expecting somebody else?

  Babs : Well, em - I am, rather.

  Eddie : Fine - you bring him in, and I'll throw him out.

• Eddie : Now that we're all here, I've got a great idea. Let's play Post Office.

  Babs : Oh, that's a kid's game.

  Eddie : Not the way I play it!

• Biff : Say, Babs, are you all dated up for the Glee Club hop?

  Babs : No. I've been waiting for somebody to ask me. Somebody in particular.

  Biff : Ha-ha-ha. Gee, that's great! Well, consider yourself asked.

• Eddie : Waste not the hours with yonder young horse pistol.

  Biff : Don't while the night with nothingness with that numb-scullion.

  Eddie : Oh, I beseech thee, young lady, put your OK on me.

  Babs : I know - we'll settle this as if the fearless knights of old.

  Biff : What do you mean?

  Babs : Battle to the death - and the victor shall be my escort to the hop.

• Babs : Aw, don't be silly, Biff. You know I like you.

  Biff : You don't show it.

  Babs : Well, what do you want me to do? Tattoo your name on my chest?

  Biff : Oh, Babs, I wish you wouldn't talk like that. I only wanted to tell you that I - oh, gee, I'm all balled up.

• Babs : Eddie, what's the matter with you lately? Are you afraid of me?

  Eddie : Yeah, I'm afraid you'll bite me.

  Babs : Ha ha. You know I'm a vegetarian.

• Eddie : Babs, one little kiss, to remember me in the morning?

  Babs : No, somebody might see us.

  Eddie : Oh, just a little quickie!

• Babs : Can you tell me where the English Building is?

  Biff : Which one?

  Babs : There are two English buildings?

  Biff : Yeah - one was damaged in the last big earthquake; that's the Broken English building.
