Quotes 

• Richard Crawley : [re that Goth look]  I don't wanna see that outfit again.

  Daphne Ziegler : Eat shit!

  [contemptuously tosses her cigarette onto the ground] 

  Richard Crawley : To be continued.

  [goes on his way] 

  Daphne Ziegler : [to bystander]  He wants me.

• Zero : Are you okay?

  [no answer] 

  Zero : Look, I know you're gonna do whatever you want, but if you screw with Crawley, he's just gonna come down hard on the rest of us.

  Daphne Ziegler : Look, all I wanna do is get out of here, and the harder I push him, the sooner I'll be gone. You won't have to put up with me anyways. Besides, he's a wuss, what's he gonna do?

• Daphne Ziegler : [re tennis instructor]  Hey, he's a babe. Cute butt.

  Zero : Peter? Don't bother. Everybody's tried to scam on him. But he must be gay.

  Daphne Ziegler : Bummer. Averil's pretty good. Is she in the tournament?

  Zero : It'd be a bad idea, it's strictly Preen.

  Daphne Ziegler : Crawley said it was a PR thing.

  Zero : Yeah, Preen relief. He brings in the Burnside boys so the Preens can give their vibrators a rest.

• Zero : [in the shallow waves]  Come on in, the water's great!

  Averil : Come on, Zigs, you're missing the good stuff!

  Daphne Ziegler : [basking in the sun in her hot pink bikini]  Cool is the rule.

• Daphne Ziegler : [after Crawley burst in on the topless sunbathing]  What happened?

  Sara Gentry : I'm history.

  Daphne Ziegler : He fired you?

  Sara Gentry : Yup.

  Daphne Ziegler : You're the only thing that keeps this place from being a total joke! Shit! I'm gonna get him and his fucking Preens!

  Sara Gentry : No. Don't use me as an excuse for your little games.

  Daphne Ziegler : Little games? Sara, ever since the day I...

  Sara Gentry : Zigs, you're so busy fighting for the sake of fighting that you can't see what's going on.

  Daphne Ziegler : What's going on is that he gives them everything and we get shit!

  Sara Gentry : Good, you're doing exactly what he wants you to do. Come on, think! He's throwing you against each other. As long as you're at each other's throats he can control you! If you'd stop thrashing around for one minute you'd see that you aren't any different from the Preens.

  Daphne Ziegler : What?

• Sara Gentry : [making a toast]  You should stick together!

  all : [making toast in return]  Stick together!

  Sara Gentry : [another toast]  And you should work together with the Preens!

  Daphne Ziegler : [toasting as well]  Let's not go overboard!
