- Nicky Marotta: Freeze, motherfucker, or I'll brain your blows out! I mean bitch, freeze!
- [Pamela laughs]
- Nicky Marotta: What are you laughin' at?
- Pamela Pearl: You said 'brain your blows out!'
- Nicky Marotta: My heart/it's pumpin'/my foot/it's runnin'/my head/it's hurtin'/it's hurtin' me./I never told you/everything/I never said the stuff I should/I was chicken to tell you/I never thought I could./ Find me/help me/save me./Can you hear me?/Can you feel me out there?/Pammy! I'm callin' you Pammy! Pammy!
- [singing to Pamela's dad and other authority figures]
- Nicky Marotta, Pamela Pearl: Spic, nigger, faggot, bum - your daughter is one!
- Nicky Marotta: [speaking] The Sleaze Sisters dedicate this to Brian Jones and all the other dinosaurs that got kicked out of the band.
- Johnny LaGuardia: The need is there, girls. The city is ready. The switchboards are jammed. You can do anything you want! Keep doing it for all us stay-at-homes! Let it be passionate, or not at all!
- [singing]
- Nicky Marotta: I can lick your face, I can bite it too. My teeth got rabies, I'm gonna give it to you. Feed me! Feed me! Can't you hear me howl? Feed me! I'm a damn dog now!
- Johnny LaGuardia: Apathy... banality... boredom... television. But a new iconoclast has come to save us. it's the Sleez Sisters. It's Nikki and Pamela. Go to it, girls. Lots of letters and lots of calls. Lots of sightings of our little Loch Ness Monster.
- Johnny LaGuardia: Dum da-dum-dum. Dum da-dum-dum-dummmmm. There are eight million stories in the big city. People say I have a bird's eye view, perched up here, night after night, looking down into the throbbing, pulsing, main-line lanes of the city. Looking right down into - the heart of the beast.
- Nicky Marotta: I ain't got much time. I don't expect to live past - 21. That's why I got to jam it all in now, you know?
- Nicky Marotta: Hey, you really sick, or what?
- Pamela Pearl: Well, I don't know, really. See, the Doctors - they won't tell me what's wrong with me.
- Nicky Marotta: They ain't never gonna tell you what's wrong wit cha. I get my revenge. I'm not gonna tell 'em what's wrong wit them either.
- Nicky Marotta: We are gonna do everything ourselves. Cause we know better than them, what we want. We show them that we are human beings and not dogs.
- Pamela Pearl: Nicky, I'm not afraid.
- Pamela Pearl: ...I have measured out my life in coffee spoons.
- Nicky Marotta: It still sounds like bull shit to me.
- Pamela Pearl: You should be doing this. You're the brave one.
- Nicky Marotta: Look, I'm brave; but, you're pretty. I'm a freak of fuckin' nature.
- Johnny LaGuardia: Runaways, can you hear me? Tune into me; because, I'm tuned into you. And I'm tuned into the big lie.
- David Pearl: Where is she?
- Johnny LaGuardia: She's camping out under the stars and giving herself over to scary thoughts and omens and excess.
- Johnny LaGuardia: You're live.
- Caller: Hello, Johnny? Pamela Pearl was in my class at Dalton.
- Johnny LaGuardia: Uh huh?
- Caller: She never did *one thing* wrong. I think she's *dead*, and this is someone else!
- Johnny LaGuardia: Yes, it's story time on WJAD in the heart of Times Square, New York, New York. The city so nice, they named it twice.
- David Pearl: The question we want to ask ourselves today, especially those of us with children, is this: Do we want to live in an X-rated city?
- Johnny LaGuardia: You have something very special inside you, young lady. The seed - that contains your unique self. You must learn to nurture that seed.
- Johnny LaGuardia: Maybe you're all alone. That's a pretty scary place to be. I know about it. You may have to jump off into the darkness. How desperately you feel those moments before you jump. But, sometime you just got to do it. You got to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and you got to jump!
- Nicky Marotta: Let me tell you something. They can't wait to turn you into a vegetable in this place.
- Johnny LaGuardia: And now its time for the story time quote of the day - and it's a good one, friends. I'd like to share it with you: A helping word is like a prayer. A helping hand is an answer to that prayer.
- Dr. Zymansky: Nichole Marotta. Do you hear this? Do you ever hear voices? Do you ever here ringing or a banging sound before you get angry? Have you banged your head lately?
- Johnny LaGuardia: It's 5:29 on a Tuesday morning and Times Square's answer to Diogenes is swinging his beacon far out into the night, looking for an honest man on Broadway.
- [singing]
- Johnny LaGuardia: Looking for love on Broadway...
- Johnny LaGuardia: I saw in "Woman's Wear Daily", David Pearl, 34, recently appointed to head Mayoral Commission for Times Square, attired in a midnight blue tuxedo. He rushed home from the opening of the Met to catch Merv Griffin. Seems Suzanne Somers was guesting in young pearls inveterate to jigglevision addict. Time to shut off the TV set, David. Come see Times Square - in the flesh - not from the windows of your limo. It's *hot* down here. It's Hades. It's Rio at Carnival time. It's ripe, baby. Get in touch with our place inside you. The great slime, more than plastic, David. And vitality, more than manners, David. And life, more than television.
- Pamela Pearl: Nicky, I can't do this...
- Nicky Marotta: This is a fuckin' job. Not some vacation. There's no free lunch, like in the school cafeteria.
- Nicky Marotta: As soon as we get a little more famous, I'm gonna get me a band. Real amplifying. I'm gonna play everywhere. I'm gonna play in fuckin' Times Square.
- Pamela Pearl: I don't see why we need to be famous.
- Nicky Marotta: Don't you get it? Once you're famous, you can't just disappear.
- Johnny LaGuardia: I want to tell you something, Nicky.
- Nicky Marotta: You want to tell me something? I want to tell you something! Fuckin' slimy do-gooder! You're so full of yourself, that you're bloated!
- Johnny LaGuardia: It's one minute to history. This is Johnny LaGuardia, coming to you live from the WJAD bird's eye view perch above a little place called Times Square.
- Nicky Marotta: Listen Slick, you know a lot of things. I only know one thing and it is that they're gonna see who I am.
- Johnny LaGuardia: yes its storry time right here in times square. the city so nice they named it twice.
