Sue Quote #692
Quote from Sue in The Graduate
Sue: Oh, hi, principal Cameron. Are you guys still open?
Principal Cameron: Yes, yes, just faxing my resumée to TGI Friday's for the summer. Fingers crossed.
Sue: [chuckles] I actually just wanted to check in on my attendance award.
Principal Cameron: Oh, are you Lynnette Perry?
Sue: No. I'm Sue Heck.
Principal Cameron: Mm.
Sue: You might know me as Ana Hajarajanaan?
Principal Cameron: I'm fairly sure that Lynnette Perry is getting the attendance award.
Sue: No.
Principal Cameron: Ah, yes. Ah, she only missed a single day.
Sue: But I only missed a single day.
Principal Cameron: [typing] No. No, it says here that you've snuck off campus another day to go to lunch at...
[key clicks] Arby's, was it?
Sue: But I didn't even finish my sandwich. You don't understand. Winning this award has been a goal of mine for years. I mean, I came to school against doctor's orders so many times.
Principal Cameron: Yes, and then apparently, you went to Arby's. But... If you go back, would you drop this off for me? And tell them that I have a degree in higher education.
Sue: Did anybody find a yearbook?

Quote from Frankie
Frankie: [v.o.] So Sue sat there with two shoes on the wrong feet, no cords, no legacy. I'd honestly never seen her this low. But then, an amazing thing happened.
[The students pass a yearbook forward until it finally reaches Sue]
Frankie: [v.o.] Sue couldn't believe it. Every page was filled.
Girl #1: [v.o.] You're always running down the hall so happy. I swear, I never once saw you in a bad mood...
Girl #1: [v.o.] You made me feel so much better when I didn't make show choir and also when I didn't make drama club...
Boy: [v.o.] Sorry we didn't get to talk all that much, but your pep rally routine to "fame" was awesome. You guys rocked...
Girl #3: [v.o.] And I look up to you in so many ways. The way you tried everything, I wish I was that brave. I know you'll do amazing...
Girl #4: [v.o.] No matter what, you were so positive. You made me realize, I need to be that way, too, 'cause high school's over in a blink of an eye and here we are graduating...
[montage of Sue's high school moments to Mama Cass Elliot's "Make Your Own Kind of Music"]
Frankie: [v.o.] Really, what is a legacy? It's not the speaking at graduation or the awards or the cords or the plaques. It's the thousand moments every day where you touch people even when you didn't know you were.
