Quotes
-
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : [encountering the M&Ms on her, Fliss', and Lyndz's way home from the mall] Can you believe those morons? It's their fault Kenny's been nabbed in the first place, and look at them.
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : Just leave them alone!
[Frankie grabs the ball the M&Ms are tossing]
Michael Collins : Hey!
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : I hope you boys are happy. Kenny's going to jail.
Marco Di Pieri : [about Fliss' nose bandage] What happened to your face?
Michael Collins : We didn't do anything.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : Rubbish! You stole Lyndz's money! Who tried to buy Rosie something nice for her birthday, and now Kenny's been arrested!
Michael Collins : I didn't steal her money.
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : We saw you.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : Didn't you hear me? Kenny's been arrested!
Michael Collins : Listen!
[brief pause]
Michael Collins : Doesn't matter. Sure, I stole it. Whatever.
Matthew McDougal : What? You're just going to back down?
Michael Collins : [hands Lyndz her money] Go buy your present. Sorry.
Matthew McDougal : This is a black day for the M&Ms, Marco.
Michael Collins : Come on.
[the M&Ms leave]

Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : [after Michael gave Lyndz her money back after he stole it from her at the mall] What a loser. He just handed it right over.
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : And he said sorry. I didn't even think those boys knew how to say sorry.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : Just goes to show you where lying and cheating gets you. And when you think someone as honest as Kenny gets locked up for something she didn't do...
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : [narrating] I couldn't take the pressure any longer.
[to Frankie]
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : Michael's not a liar, I am.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : I know he's your brother, but...
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : I'm not joking.
[narrating]
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : So I explained the whole thing. I mean, I had to, right?
[to Frankie]
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : I owed Michael some money, and...
[narrating]
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : In the meantime, Kenny was doing some explaining of her own.
[cut to Kenny]
Kenny Tan : See, technically, you have a point. Technically. But let's look at this realistically, shall we? I had the money. I was going to pay for the stuff. The whole situation just got out of hand.
Security Guard : Hm, you're telling me.
Kenny Tan : If you're going to arrest me, then arrest me now, but be warned, I know some very good lawyers. And I have a water-tight case.
Security Guard : Much as I would love to sit in this room all day and listen to your theories about crime and punishment, I think you've learned your lesson. We both have.
Kenny Tan : So I'm free to go?
Security Guard : As a bird. Next time, you better think twice before you go running out of a shop with unpaid goods.
Kenny Tan : Okay! I knew justice would prevail.
[cut back to Frankie, Fliss, and Lyndz]
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : So if the money was Michael's, how come he told us he stole it?
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : He was covering for me. I don't know why. I don't deserve it.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : Why didn't you tell us before? You had plenty of opportunities.
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : I dunno. It was my idea to get Rosie something special, but I meant a surprise or a song or whatever. Then you all thought I meant a paid-for gift. And remember you called me mean when I couldn't afford to pay for the drinks at the cafe last week.
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : You're a classic, Lyndz. We were only joking.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : Don't you get it, though? Kenny dropped everything to run out and her what she thought was your money. She didn't think about anything else but you. Friends come first with us.
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : So...?
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : So even if you told us you didn't have the cash, we wouldn't have cared. We would've just got Rosie something cheaper. As my grandma says, "It's not the gift, it's the thought that counts."
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : Ew. I hate that saying. Give me a good present any day.
Francesca 'Frankie' Thomas : I couldn't think badly of you, Lyndz.
[hugs Lyndz]
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : Hey, isn't that Kenny?
[Kenny runs toward them]
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : Kenny, you've escaped!
Kenny Tan : Nope, just used a bit of the Tam charm and know-how. That and some water-tight defense.
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : Problem solved.
Felicity 'Fliss' Sidebotham : Wait a minute. We still haven't worked out what to get Rosie.
Lydnsey 'Lyndz' Collins : Leave it to me. I've got something perfect in mind. Something priceless.
