Ernie: Wrong, Bradford, I'm not the prom queen type.
Tommy Bradford: Are you saying that I am?
Ernie: I'm saying we can get more votes with you. You got the number one requirement. Name recognition. Year after year, Central High has been infested with Bradfords.
Tommy Bradford: Thanks a lot, Ernie, but I can't just run on an infested name.
Ernie: But you got other pluses. Guys like it. Chicks like you. You got the right image, Bradford.
Tommy Bradford: Which I'll totally lose, if I run for prom queen.
Mary Bradford: Run for what?
Tommy Bradford: Never mind.
Ernie: Prom queen.
Tommy Bradford: Shut up, Ernie.
Susan Bradford Stockwell: I thought that's what you said.
Mary Bradford: Prom queen?
Ernie: Your brother here's gonna make history.
Tommy Bradford: Yeah, for the murder of Ernie Field.
Susan Bradford Stockwell: You guys pulling some kind of prank or something?
Tommy Bradford: Yeah, some kind of prank.
Ernie: We've never been more serious in our lives.
Mary Bradford: How can you be serious about something so stupid?
Ernie: How could you wanna be a doctor?
Susan Bradford Stockwell: Oh, what does that have to do with Tommy running for prom queen?
Ernie: If Mary can go after a man's job why can't Tommy go after a chick's job?
Mary Bradford: That is the most chauvinistic thing I've ever heard you guys say. I-I don't believe it.
Tommy Bradford: Are you saying that fair isn't fair?
Mary Bradford: No, I'm saying that doctors don't have to be male.
Tommy Bradford: We're only saying that prom queens don't have to be female.
Ernie: That's it Bradford, tell her.
Tommy Bradford: What gives you the right to decide the rules on sexual discrimination?
Susan Bradford Stockwell: Because men have been making the rules for the last 5000 years so we haven't had the chance.
Tommy Bradford: Oh, really, well, take a look around this house and at school, you've had all the chances.
Mary Bradford: Tommy, you flipped.
Tommy Bradford: Well, maybe it's about time women had a flip-side change.
Ernie: Terrific, Bradford. Terrific. I never heard a better acceptance speech.
Tommy Bradford: Yeah, well, somebody's gotta carry the ball before they freeze us out of the game.
Ernie: Thanks for talking him into it. It needed a woman's touch.
