• Tanya Rock : I know there's no such thing as Santa Clause.

  Narrator : When my mother heard Tonya say those words, it was like she wasn't her baby anymore.

  Tonya - Age 30 : [Rochelle imagines Tanya aggressively confronting her years later as a young adult]  So, what else did you lie to me about? Are you really gonna kick me out if I get pregnant? Is it true you ain't takin' care of no baby? Can I really not bring a white boy home? Does the Foreman Grill really knock out the fat? Can I really get a loan with no money down? Are you my real mother? Momma, I want ANSWERS!

• Rochelle Rock : So, you do understand.

  Tanya Rock : Yeah, it's okay to lie.

• Tanya Rock : [about her new doll]  I wanted a Cabbage Patch doll with long hair!

  Rochelle Rock : How about you have no doll with no hair?

  Tanya Rock : Thanks.
