Quote from Rochelle in Everybody Hates the Ninth-Grade Dance
Tonya: Mama? Rochelle: Yes, baby? Tonya: Can I take ballet? Rochelle: Ballet? Oh, baby. [laughs] Oh. I've been waiting for this day. Adult Chris: [v.o.] My mother always wished she had more talent. She dreamt of being in a band. [fantasy: Rochelle is the lead singer of a band performing "Word Up!" by Cameo] Adult Chris: [v.o.] And since she couldn't do it, Tonya was the next best thing. Rochelle: Oh, oh, hey, let's see, let's see. Oh, we got to get you some slippers and some tights and leotards, and you got to have leg warmers and-and wristbands, and we got to get you some lessons. And a stretching bar and a wall full of mirrors... Adult Chris: [v.o.] A Russian partner and a platinum card.
