Nikki Cox: Tiffany Malloy

Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Barry : [wears leather jacket, leather gloves, leather cap and gaily colored scarf]  Well, how do I look?

  [tosses scarf nonchalantly] 

  Tiffany Malloy : Kinda like Snoopy on his way to a romantic dinner for two with the Red Baron.

  Barry : Do you think the Baron would be interested?

  Amber Moss : Barry, he's in his driving duds.

  Barry : For graduation, I'm getting my father's old pickup. Ugh, I just love the image a truck gives you.

  [voice low:] 

  Barry : It's very butch. Especially with those black leather seats. Ugh, and you just know what leather does to me.

  Ryan Malloy : You should be careful, Barry. People might start to think you're gay.

  Amber Moss : *I'm* getting my father's van. It was the one I was conceived in.

  Sable O'Brien : [enters, in a huff:]  God, I hate parents! Rather than buy me a new car, my parents are getting me a used Mercedes. I mean, my mother *sat* in it, for God's sake! They think they can just *slap* a personalized license plate on it, it will make it all better!

  [comes to a realization:] 

  Sable O'Brien : I am an abused child.

  Tiffany Malloy : This whole car thing is so unfair. Why do kids who worked *so* hard to graduate high school get hand-me-downs when parents, who have done nothing, get new? Oh, I didn't go through four years of high school for nothing. I'm gonna go home and get a new car out of my Daddy.

• Tiffany Malloy : [no car upon graduation for Tiffany]  So let me get this straight. I have been the ideal child, and done well, for nothing?

  Jennie Malloy : Yeah.

  Jack Malloy : That's pretty much it, sweetheart.

• Tiffany Malloy : Daddy, I got my first paycheck today. Did you know that the Government takes half of everything that you earn?

  Jack Malloy : [with a cynical long-suffering smile]  No, I didn't know that. And did you know that your mother takes the other half?
