Quote from Sophia in Wham, Bam, Thank You, Mammy!
Sophia: Dorothy, can we talk? I just want you to understand why I did what I did. Pussycat, I realize I was wrong by not talking to you before hiring a matchmaker, but what you don't understand is where I come from, matchmaking is an age-old tradition. For centuries, people have been happy being brought together by a third party. Dorothy: Ma, I understand. I-I really appreciate what you're trying to do. Sophia: Good. And in keeping with that spirit, I sold you to the sultan of Fatah. Dorothy: Ma. Sophia: What? You're a substitute teacher. It'll be just like The King and I.
