- Edie Danziger: [finds the black and white 1966 film Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? playing on TV] Oh. Yeah. I'm gonna wait until this is in color.
- Voguel: My idea of the Heaven is a place where they screw you barefoot!
- Nicole: [Laughing] You make me wanna pass a hat for it.
- Voguel: [Smiling] Don't feel sorry for me!
- [about his ex]
- Voguel: I got him be left
- [Pointing her removed breast]
- Voguel: Every cloud has a silver lining, and he was too dull to kill
- [She stops to smile. About Mia]
- Voguel: What about her? Did she want to kill her husband?
- Nicole: Why would she want do that?
- Voguel: Maybe she found out you were sleeping with him
- [She walks to her car to leave]
- Nicole: [Ironic] Oh, that's so clever! Who did you ask, one of the faculty or any of the students? Oh, I know! You read it in the brochure, all right?
- Voguel: So she knew?
- Nicole: Of course she knew! Ask her! Come on, she's not a murderer. She's an ex-nun, for Christ sake.
- Voguel: [Laughing again] I remember them! They disappeared overnight, like dial phones.
- [Serious again]
- Voguel: Whay about you? What if he wouldn't leave her?
- Nicole: Honey, if I couldn't get a man to leave her I wouldn't kill him, I'd kill myself.
- Voguel: [Going into her car] Well, he has lef her. Apparently. One way or another. Well...
- [about to start the car]
- Voguel: Unless there's anything else...
- Nicole: Yeah, there is, one more thing!
- [She goes to Voguel's car window in a satisfied, accomplice and smiling mood]
- Nicole: Guy did it barefoot!
- Voguel: [She put a gum in her mouth pulling a face of sarcastic wisdom. Before starting the car and leaving the place] "Did", Miss Horner? Don't you mean "DOES"?
- Nicole: [It's a quiet night and Nicole, drinking something in a cup, is looking Mia lighting candles in an open-air altar of the school] What do your saints say?
- Mia: I'm brooding. I'm not praying.
- Nicole: Lost your faith, ah? I've never really had any to begin with, I guess. Never believed in any of it. God, the Virgin Mary, that life begins at 40... and the people are all just basically good inside.
- Mia: Pretty soon we'll be the same person.
- Nicole: See how nice things turned out?
- [She stops talking and seems to meditate briefly about something important]
- Nicole: I'm going inside.
- [about Mia's changing the terrible diet his husband used to martyrize the whole school before he was killing by Nicole and her]
- Nicole: You know? It wasn't too smart changing the food like that, he never would've done that if he was alive.
- Mia: What is the point in killing him then? I like making it better for the boys.
- Nicole: [She starts to leave the place] Still, if it's all the same with you I'd rather not hang for fried chicken.
- Mia: Nicole, why did you kill him?
- [Nicole stops, with her back to Mia and staring at her above her shoulder]
- Mia: You could've left him. You could've left here.
- Nicole: I was understimated.
- Nicole: Killing him is a good thing. Like planting a tree.
- Mia: Maybe there is a God.
- Nicole: What are you talking about?
- Mia: I haven't believed fot so long... So when the pool was empty I thought: maybe there is a God. And He knows what we did. And He's coming for us.
- Nicole: It's not God, Honey. That's a lady detective with one breast.
- Mia: You're always laughing at me. So was Guy. He must be laughing now.
- Nicole: I'm not laughing at you, Mia.
- Mia: You are. A little. Inside. It's lonely without God, isn't it?
- Nicole: It's just lonely... Period.
- Mia: I'm not gonna be able to do this.
- Nicole: Well, I suggest you try. It isn't like you burnt the toast, Mia. You killed your husband. It's all off the chart demerit-wise. Understand?
- Mia: You are so calm. Look at you. Your hair is done. You've got makeup on.
- Nicole: This is a day like any other day. We did what we have to do and it's done. Ok? It was self-defense. You've been taking it fot too long and you finally said fuck off. Good for you. Fuck him. Fuck them.
- Mia: Everything but fuck you.
- Nicole: Roughly. Now, come on!
- [clapping her hands like a teacher to a pupil]
- Nicole: Places!
- Mia: [the ex-nun defies] I can go to the police. I can tell them what we did.
- Nicole: What YOU did.
- Mia: We both did it.
- Nicole: Yeah, well. I don't think they'll see that as beneficial to me. They'll say the wife gets the school, the money, his investment, her freedom... And what did the other woman get?
- [Significative silence]
- Nicole: Nothing. That's how they'll look at it.
- Mia: [Coming very close to Nicole, with complicity] I'll say we were lovers.
- Nicole: Well. You can take the girl out of the convent.
- Mia: I thought we had the same reason.
- Nicole: We did have the same reason
- [as for the money Mia has just found out that Guy cheated Nicole]
- Nicole: I just had an extra one
- [Caressing Mia with cherish]
- Nicole: I'm sorry I lied to you. I couldn't do it now.
- Mia: If you hadn't found this... you'd killed the one person who could have told you where it was.
- Nicole: He said we were partners. And then he acted alone
- [She kisses softly Mia on her neck]
- Nicole: If you give him the school, he'll just sell it, and then where would all the future Lee Harvey Oswalds come from?
- Nicole: [to Mia with sarcasm] Let me tell you one thing from one saint to another: You should keep right on praying. Wear your knees out that way for a change!
- Nicole: It isn't like you burnt the toast, Mia. You murdered your husband! It's off the chart demeritwise.
