- Brandon Walsh: [about Abby] You're always talking about how manipulative, calculating and tough your mother is; that's how most people see you!
- Valerie Malone: [Looks at him shocked] Is that how you see me Brandon?
- Brandon Walsh: Sometimes, yes.
- Abby Malone: [In Brandon's car] Face it Brandon, my daughter doesn't like me!
- Brandon Walsh: That's not true.
- Valerie Malone: [In the bathroom with Kelly. Obviously tramuatized by her mother] You have the one guy that I only ever loved. The only one who cared about me and understood me. If you don't love him and are using him to get me back at my own game. Let him go.
- [cries]
- Kelly Taylor: You're telling the truth aren't you?
- Valerie Malone: Yeah. Please Kell, I really need him right now.
