影片对白：

Deb: Emma, there you are.
Emma: Oh, God, Deb. Hi.
Deb: I know. Isn't it gorgeous? God, I feel so blessed to have this body.
Emma: You know, I am so late...
Deb: No, no, no. Listen. You gotta help me out here. You know the debate team?
Emma: Yeah.
Deb: I cannot go to the state finals. I mean, children talking about their little problems. Ugh! You gotta do it for me.
Emma: Yeah, Deb, I'm already doing your late bus patrol and pep squad and your after-school detention. You're the debate team adviser. I don't think that I should...
Deb: I know. I do so much. I wish I could just do the bare minimum. I so admire you for that.
Emma: Thank you.
Deb: Anyway, all right, look. Here's how we'll work it out. I'll do the debate team...
Emma: Okay, good.
Deb: Uh-huh. If you take my Tuesday study halls for the rest of the year. Okay?
Emma: Yeah, that's...No.
Deb: All right. You owe me, girl. Get out of the hallway, kids!
Liv: You know why she does this? You're the best teacher at that school.
Emma: No, I-
Liv: She's trying to overwork you, so you crack under pressure. Middle school's a jungle.
Emma: I don't know. I think she's kind of sad. I mean, she's been divorced, like, three times.
Liv: She's way ahead of us. I mean, where are our divorces? I gotta get married first. God, I hate Daniel! (phone rings) No, Kevin. I'm dealing with a crisis.
Emma: What's your crisis?
Liv: Uh, that's code for "I don't want to talk to you."
Emma: Oh, I see. Well, then thank you for putting me through.
Liv: See? I told you those jeans would look great on you.
Emma: They aren't too tight?
Liv: No, no. Not at all. But this- I mean, Emma, yellow - Not your color. Okay? Seriously. Oh, but you know what? Try this. Because - You know what? Keep it. It never hung right on me anyway.
Emma: Of course it doesn't hang right on you. It's...my size, and it's new. This is the Dolce blouse I told you about last week.
Emma: Liv, I can't.
Liv: Hey, hey. It was on sale. I practically made money on it.
Emma: Liv, it's too much.
Liv: Emma, Emma. Emma- Just say thank you. just-
Emma: Thank you. It's beautiful. I love it.
Liv: Good. Now this- Emma's stuff. Emma's stuff. Let's get rid of it at one point. You moved out, like, a hundred years ago. Okay. Daniel's sweater? Cardigan? You wanna try that?
Emma: Yeah, love it.
Liv: Tiffany box.
Emma: You're getting engaged?
Liv: I'm getting engaged. I'm getting engaged!
Emma: You're getting engaged! Oh, my God!
Liv: Oh, my God! Emma-
Emma: No! Stop it.
Liv: No.
Emma: Liv!
Liv: I have to look.
Emma: Stop it!
Liv: No, no! You can't stop me.
Emma: No!!! I'm sorry. But he should see your face when you first see the ring.
Liv: Good call. You always think of others, Emma. It never occurs to me like that. I mean, sometimes it does.
Emma: I'm really happy for you.
Emma: Promise me you won't tell anyone until after he proposes.                                                                                       Liv: Oh, God. I would never. I'd be out of my mind. (walking into the pub) I'm engaged!
