• Grizelda Brown : I don't want no white man lookin' at my Tampax!

• Peggy Gravel : Go ahead, feel her up! Just like you did to me! Find em, feel em, fuck em, forget em... is THAT your new motto?

  Grizelda Brown : Zip that gaping hole of a mouth up, Peggy, before I plug it up with my fist.

  Peggy Gravel : You're just like all the rest of the common dykes in this town!

• Grizelda Brown : You better calm yourself down before I haul off and smack you upside your wide, wide head. We killed your husband. And I ain't your maid anymore bitch. I'm your sister in crime.

  Peggy Gravel : Please, don't sit on me!

  Queen Carlotta : As long as you live in Mortville, you must always consider me your god, and if you ever see me on the streets, fall to your knees and shout, "I honor you, Queen Carlotta!" Royal proclamation two!

  [trumpet] 

  Queen Carlotta : You must live here in constant mortification, solely existing to bring me and my tourists moments of royal amusement! I'm not responsible for your income, your living conditions, or your personal happiness. Have I made myself perfectly clear?

  Grizelda Brown : Yes, your royal majesty.

  Queen Carlotta : And you, Mrs. Gravel, murderess?

  Peggy Gravel : You've made yourself quite clear.

  Queen Carlotta : YOUR...?

  Peggy Gravel : Your royal majesty.

  Queen Carlotta : So be it! Lieutenant Williams, take them to our ugly expert and given them a complete overhaul, and when you walk down the streets of Mortville, make sure you're dressed like what you really are -- TRASH!
