Rochelle Quote #222

Quote from Rochelle in Everybody Hates the Buddy System

Rochelle: All right. Enough now. Tonya, why don't you wear your flower earrings? You're too young for hoops, that's women's jewelry. And I'm not going to have people looking at my daughter like that.
Tonya: Like what?
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Like this.
[fantasy: a young woman pole dances at a strip club:]
Man: You see the earrings on that girl?
[reality:]
Tonya: Everybody else has them.
Rochelle: Well, if everybody else got a butt whooping, would you want one, too?

Detective: Is that the jersey?
Police Officer: It's all we could find.
Detective: Good thing he didn't ask for skates.
