Bridget Flanery: Bunny

Quotes 

• Bunny : [cheerleader enters school library]  Right! Come on, everyone! Let's see some school spirit!

  [starts doing cartwheels] 

  Ryan Malloy : Oh, boy, I love that Bunny Muffovich.

  [to Tiffany:] 

  Ryan Malloy : You know, there's something about a girl upside-down in a pleated skirt that makes you wanna drive a big truck.

  [as Tiffany looks at him:] 

  Ryan Malloy : You know, over a bridge. Or maybe through a tunnel. Yeah, a tunnel!

  Tiffany Malloy : Well... Go talk to her!

  Ryan Malloy : I'm gonna go talk to her! How do I look? Nose clear?

  [tilts his head back] 

  Tiffany Malloy : [has little flashlight handy]  Uh, just keep your head down.

  Ryan Malloy : [approaches blonde girl]  Hello, dear. Would you allow me to, uh, buy you a cookie, or some turn of the century peanut butter crackers?

  Bunny : You honestly think I'd eat something with you?

  Ryan Malloy : I was just being polite. Shall we go right to bed?

  Bunny : I'm sorry, I'm busy every night for the rest of my life.

  [turns her back on Ryan] 

  Tiffany Malloy : [Ryan slumped back to her dejectedly]  Well?

  Ryan Malloy : She's busy every night.

  Tiffany Malloy : That is so rude! You went to the trouble of keeping your head down for her. The least she can do is come up with a believable excuse for you. You go back over there and you make her *work* to turn you down!

  Ryan Malloy : [marches back, confronts the girl]  Busy doing *what?*

  Bunny : I work.

  Ryan Malloy : All right. Well, I'll come visit you at work.

  Bunny : You can't! Because I'm a... I'm a... a... a vampire slayer!

  Ryan Malloy : A vampire slayer? Well, I killed a vampire once. Actually, it was a vampire cat. No, it was a vampire kitten. No, it was just a regular kitten. A wuvable widdle kitten.

  [raises up his face] 

  Ryan Malloy : Little squished kitty in heaven, please forgive Ryan...!

  Bunny : If you'll excuse me, I have to go somewhere where you aren't.

  [does more cartwheels] 

  Bunny : Go, Northridge!

  Ryan Malloy : [notices banana peel lying on floor, and his thoughts are heard:]  No! No! Bunny the Slayer might slip and get hurt. Must save. I know, I'll knock the banana peel out of the way with these marbles.

  [which of course has disastrous consequences] 

• Ryan Malloy : [to the mangled heap]  So, guess you won't be slaying any more vampires, huh? How about going out with me on Friday night?

  Bunny : No!

  Ryan Malloy : Come on, you're a cripple now.

  Bunny : Listen, I would, but somebody has to take over killing vampires every night. And that person is *you!*

  Ryan Malloy : Yeah, I'm not a vampire slayer.

  Bunny : Oh, yeah?

  [her hand strikes his cheek] 

  Bunny : Now you are! I gave you the mark. Want some more?

  Ryan Malloy : Mark? Then it must be true. What a responsibility! Save the world! By that, I mean America. I am Ryan - vampire slayer!
