  • Mr. Flak: Oh, and Mr. Larkin, perhaps you'd like to share with the rest of the class, Patrick Henry's immortal last words?
  • Link Larkin: Kiss my ass?
  • Link Larkin: I was just at home, practicing my new twist on The Twist, when I overheard it on the news. I can't believe Tracy savagely bludgeoned an Eagle Scout. That's just not like her.
  • Edna Turnblad: But it's not true! I was there! He didn't even bleed.
  • Link Larkin: I shoulda been there, beside her. I can't sleep. I can't eat...
  • Edna Turnblad: You can't eat? Well, come on in and worry with us. I'll make you some pork.
  • Link Larkin: [bumping into Tracy] Sorry little darlin. Hope I didn't dent your 'do.
  • Seaweed: My mom's havin' a platter party tonight. Y'all wanna come check it out?
  • Tracy Turnblad: Now?
  • Penny Pingleton: Would you mind if I, too, checked it out? I've never been to North Avenue before.
  • Link Larkin: Uh... well, would it be safe, you know... for us?
  • Seaweed: Calm down, cracker boy, it's cool.
  • Penny Pingleton: Wow! Being invited places by colored people!
  • Tracy Turnblad: It feels so hip!
  • Seaweed: I'm glad y'all feel that way, 'cause, uh, not many people do.
  • Link Larkin: [presents Amber with a ring] It's time.
  • Amber Von Tussle: Oh!
  • [Amber and Link kiss]
  • Velma Von Tussle: Amber! Save your personal life for the camera, sweetie! Oop, shiny!
  • [sends Amber off to makeup for more powder]
  • Link Larkin, Tracy Turnblad, Penny Pingleton, Seaweed: [ending the song "Without Love"] Darlin' you had best believe me, never leave me without love!
  • Edna Turnblad: [called from off camera] Link, your pork is ready!
  • Amber Von Tussle: [to her classmates] Oh, and it's totally not true about her and the entire football team. I mean, please: anybody can get grass stains all over their back.
  • Link Larkin: Amber, stop it. I'm sick of you doing that! Just because she's a good dancer...
  • Amber Von Tussle: [scoffs] Uh, I'm sorry... you think that she can dance? Well, maybe you'd rather have her as your partner. You could get sponsored by Goodyear!
  • Link Larkin: Uh... we're on live.
  • Amber Von Tussle: You have to vote for a person! Not one of the Himalayas.
  • [from trailer]
  • Link Larkin: [to Tracy] I think knowing you is the start of a pretty big adventure.
  • Amber Von Tussle: [to Shelley] Do that again, and there'll be stumps where your feet are, you got that? You little who...
  • Link Larkin: [interrupting] Hey, Amber
  • Amber Von Tussle: [to Link] - Oley moley!
  • Link Larkin: That's my shot, Trace.
  • Tracy Turnblad: But, it's whats right.
  • Link Larkin: I'm sorry, Trace. I just think this adventure is a little too big for me.
