Dylan Schoenfield: [to Amy] I don't know what to say. Which you know never happens to me.

Dylan Schoenfield: [crowned Blossom Queen] Oh! Recently a documentary was made about me and I know some of you may have seen it. Um... I would like to give you all an update.
[tearfully:]
Dylan Schoenfield: I was wrong about that cats and dogs stuff.
[exhales]
Dylan Schoenfield: Popularity isn't about having everyone know about who you are or what you're wearing or
[exhales]
Dylan Schoenfield: even winning Blossom Queen.
[sniffles]

[Lola and Hannah share guilty looks]
Dylan Schoenfield: It's about real friends.

Dylan Schoenfield: Friends who might not always be into the same things you are, but will always be there to share an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink sundae. It's not about being popular...
[shakes her head]
Dylan Schoenfield: or a geek. It's about being around people who make you happy.
[nods]
Dylan Schoenfield: Like how I feel about Josh Rosen.

Dylan Schoenfield: [speaking to the camera] I'm happy to see Josh, but I kinda wish he was on his own so we could hang out more.
[shivers]
Dylan Schoenfield: Weird, right?
