Laurie
- Annie: Still spooked?
- Laurie: I wasn't spooked.
- Annie: Lies!
- Laurie: I wasn't! I saw someone standing in Mr. Riddle's back yard.
- Annie: Probably Mr. Riddle!
- Laurie: He was watching me.
- Annie: Mr. Riddle was watching you? Laurie, Mr. Riddle is eighty-seven!
- Laurie: He can still watch.
- Annie: That's probably all he can do!
- Annie: [Michael Myers' car cruises by the girls walking home from school] Hey, jerk! Speed kills!
- [the car screeches to a halt]
- Annie: God, can't he take a joke?
- Laurie: You know, Annie, some day you're going to get us all in deep trouble.
- Lynda: Totally.
- Annie: I *hate* a guy with a car and no sense of humor.
- Lynda: [concerning Annie] The only reason she babysits is to have a place for...
- Laurie: [realizing she had forgot something] Shit.
- Annie: I have a place for *that*!
- Laurie: I forgot my chemistry book.
- Lynda: So, who cares? I always forget my chemistry book and my math book, and my English book, and my, let's see, my French book, and... well, who needs books anyway? I don't need books. I always forget all my books. I mean, it doesn't really matter if you have your books or not... Hey, isn't that Devon Graham?
- [the Shape is lurking by a bush on the sidewalk]
- Laurie: Annie, look!
- Annie: Look where? I don't see anything.
- Laurie: That guy who passed us in the car before, the one you yelled at!
- Annie: Subtle, isn't he?
- [marches over to the bush]
- Annie: Hey, creep!
- [pauses]
- Annie: Laurie, dear. He wants to talk to you. He wants to take you out tonight.
- Laurie: [seeing there's nobody there] He was standing right there.
- Annie: Poor Laurie! Scared another one away. It's tragic, you *never* go out. You must have a small fortune stashed away from babysitting so much.
- Laurie: Guys think I'm too smart.
- Annie: I don't. I think you're wacko. Now you're seeing men behind bushes!
- Lynda: So Annie, are we still on for tonight?
- Annie: I wouldn't want to get you in deep trouble, Lynda!
- Lynda: Oh, come on, Annie! Bob and I have been planning it for weeks.
- Annie: All right, the Wallaces leave at seven.
- Laurie: I'm babysitting the Doyles, it's two houses down. We can keep each other company!
- Annie: Oh, terrific. I've got three choices: watch the kid sleep, listen to Lynda screw around, or talk to you!
- Laurie: [sees Annie wearing a shirt because her clothes are in the laundry] Oh, fancy!
- Annie: This has not been my night. I spilled butter all over my clothes, they're in the wash. I got stuck in the laundry room...
- Laurie: Listen, I want you to call Ben Tramer and tell him you were just fooling around.
- Annie: I can't.
- Laurie: Yes, you can.
- Annie: No, I can't. He went drinking with Mike Godfrey and won't be home until late. You'll have to call him tomorrow. Besides, I'm on my way to pick up Paul.
- Laurie: Wait a minute...
- Annie: If you watch her, I'll consider talking to Ben Tramer in the morning. Deal?
- Laurie: Deal.
- [to herself after Annie leaves]
- Laurie: The old Girl Scout comes through again.
- Tommy: I don't like that story anymore.
- Laurie: I thought King Arthur was your favorite.
- Tommy: Not anymore.
- [takes a stack of comics from under the couch]
- Laurie: Why do you keep them under there?
- Tommy: Mom doesn't like me having them.
- Laurie: Laser Man, Neutron Man. I can understand why. Tarantula Man...
- Tommy: Laurie, what's the Boogeyman?
- Laurie: [to herself, watching kids trick-or-treating] Well, kiddo, I thought you outgrew superstition.
- Laurie: Tommy, unlock the door! Come here, now you listen to me. I want you to go down the stairs, and out the front door. I want you to go down the street to the Mackenzie's house. I want you to tell them to call the police and tell them to send them over here. Now, do you understand me? Go do as I say!
