\\A Night to Remember;
Jessica: My God, I'm sexy! I even have the perfect tan! Now I really am the perfect California girl.
Elizabeth: Jeez, Jess, could you be more shallow?
Jessica: Nope!
Elizabeth: I'm looking forward to this beach party.
Jessica: Me too. We need more fun parties in Sweet Valley.
Elizabeth: I know! A Jungle Prom!
Jessica: Great idea! We'll all wear loincloth.
Elizabeth: No, formal wear.
Jessica: Relax, Liz. We can fight about that a lot later in this book.
Elizabeth: Okay!
--------------------------------------------
Sam: Hey Jess, let's make out on the beach in front of our friends.
Jessica: Sure!
Elizabeth: Hey everyone, who wants to hold a Jungle Prom?
Everyone: Great idea, guys!
Jessica: Super! Liz, you get going on all the planning. I'll start plotting how to win prom queen.
Elizabeth: No, I'll be prom queen.
Jessica: As if! With that face?
Elizabeth: We're twins, you idiot!
Jessica: Yeah, but I'm the hot, popular one.
Big Mesa Students: SVH sucks!
Todd: Hey guys, that's not nice!
Bruce: You're such a wuss, Wilkins!
-----------------------------------------------
Lila: Oh, I wish I had my mom! I'm having a delayed reaction to almost being raped by John Pfeifer, and it's making me a little crazy. I was afraid on my last date.
Jessica: You're probably fine.
Lila: Yeah. I'll go to therapy to learn to trust again.
Nathan: Lila, I'm your counselor. You can trust me.
Jessica: Hey Li, is Nathan hot?
Lila: Geez Jess, for the first time ever I'm going to point out that you're stupid and shallow and you don't appreciate what you have. But yes.
Jessica: Hey! That's mean! Now let me parade my mother in your face, okay?
Lila: Hmmm, I'm so emotionally vulnerable...maybe I should have a crush on Nathan!
-------------------------------------------------
Elizabeth: Wow, planning a prom is hard work.
Jessica: I know. That's why I'm letting you do it all, while I sit back and let everyone think I'm helping and give a rat's ass about the rain forest as I campaign for prom queen.
Elizabeth: Super! Now, formal wear or loincloths?
Jessica: Loincloths! It's just not a party if I'm not half-naked!
Elizabeth: Dammit Jessica, we get into these dumb fights all the time, and it's my turn to win.
Prom Committee: Formal wear it is!
Jessica: Fine! I'll just have to wear a dress so tight and low-cut, it'll make me look like Jessica Simpson showing off her rack instead of 16-year-old Jessica Wakefield.
Elizabeth: Perfect! I'll wear my usual boring style but still manage to look gorgeous.
------------------------------------------------
Jessica: Liz, you bitch, stop campaigning for prom queen. You may be smart, friendly, kind, and working hard on this, and even though we're twins, I'm the pretty one. That's all that really matters. That, and I'll sleep with all the guys at SVH if it gets me elected. It's on my To-Do list anyway.
Elizabeth: No, Jess. I deserve it. You give up.
Jessica: Well, once we get photographed for that magazine wearing jungle wear, I'll be more popular than ever.
Elizabeth: You would be, if you remembered to show up.
Jessica: Just because I was like an hour late, doesn't mean they should've done the pictures without me.
Elizabeth: Newsflash, Jess. The world doesn't revolve around you.
Jessica: Like hell it doesn't! I think I know a thing or two about science, Liz.
Elizabeth: Well, with all the crap going on with Big Mesa, I don't think dates from other schools should come to our prom.
Jessica: What about Sam?
Elizabeth: Screw Sam!
Enid: Uh, Liz? You already did that. You only told your diary about it. Jess doesn't know
Elizabeth: Oops! Fine, dates from other schools can come, that will help make me feel less guilty about my affair with Sam.
-------------------------------------------------
Enid: Great prom, Liz!
Elizabeth: Thanks!
Jessica: Hey, shady looking guy from Big Mesa, can I have whatever's in your cup?
Big Mesa Guy: Aren't you worried about roofies? I mean, I'm a pretty big dirtbag. You don't know what's in this cup.
Jessica: Perfect!
Big Mesa Guy: Here you go, then!
Jessica: Great! Now Liz will drink her punch and not taste that it's now more than half pure grain alcohol, get drunk, and embarass herself. I'll be prom queen for sure! This has to end well!
Lila: Hey Jess, I'm uncomfortable here.
Jessica: Suck it up, Lila.
Nathan: You can hang out with me, Lila.
Lila: Yay!
---------------------------------------------------
Sam: Hey Liz, can I have some of your punch?
Elizabeth: Sure Sam.
Sam: Let's dance like crazy and see if anyone notices our odd behavior.
Elizabeth: Okay!
Lila: Hey Jess, your sister seems drunk.
Jessica: Perfect! I mean, you're nuts Lila. Dammit, she's with my boyfriend. That whore! Oh wait, maybe this is my fault.
Winston: And the winner of prom king is Todd Wilkins, and Jessica Wakefield for prom queen!
Jessica: AWESOME! I mean, Todd, Liz is drunk and she just took off in the Jeep with Sam!
Todd: We have to go after them! No time to tell anyone else or ask an adult for help!
Jessica: Let's go! I'll chase them in my high heels!
Todd: Okay. Push your way around the Big Mesa kids who, surprisingly, are rioting in our gym now. Who would've thought our rivals would ruin our prom?
Lila: Nathan, I'm scared.
Nathan: Let's go where it's quiet.
Lila: Hey, stop forcing yourself on me!
Nathan: What? I just saved you from a stampede!
Lila: Officer, he tried to rape me.
Nathan: Lila, are you sure you're not overreacting due to your post-traumatic stress?
Lila: I might be, but arrest him anyway!
----------------------------------------------------
Jessica: Officer, that's my sister and my boyfriend in that car! You have to let me in!
Officer: No one can go past the police line, young lady.
Jessica: Oh Liz, oh Sam! I can't help but feel this is somehow partially my fault!
Todd: It is, Jess. But no one else can know yet. It's part of the cliffhanger that ends this book, and leads you and Liz to get angry at each other, making yourself vulnerable to a psycho a few books from now.
Jessica: Huh?
Todd: Nothing. I hope they're okay. Sam is the best boyfriend you've had so far. And without Liz, I'm nothing.
Jessica: Are they okay, officer?
Officer: Well, I know, but I won't tell you yet, in the interest of making people buy The Morning After to find out!
