  • [on the afternoon of the Prom] 

    Laura : Girl, have you ever seen the hair salon so crowded?

    Maxine Johnson : It happens every year the day of the prom. Did you see them work on Dora Fenswick?

    Laura : She didn't need a hairstylist, she needs a fairy godmother!

    Laura : [Curtis is about to break bad news to Laura]  Curtis!

    Curtis : Hi Laura!

    Laura : What's wrong?

    Curtis : I don't know how to tell you this, but I have to tell you straight out. I won't be able to take you to the prom.

    Laura : Curtis, I got my hair done, my nails. I bought a new dress and you say you can't take me?

    Curtis : That's Right

    Laura : Let me tell you something. It better be a dead relative in your excuse.

    Curtis : My grandmother died!

    Laura : [gasps]  I'm sorry, I'm so sorry please forgive me.

    Curtis : My whole family is flying out to Washington for the funeral

    Laura : Can you wait a day, of course you can't

    Curtis : I know you're disappointed. I'm sorry, call you next week?

    Laura : Poor Curtis

    Maxine Johnson : Yeah and poor you, you gonna miss your prom.

    Laura : Maybe not, there has to be some guy who doesn't have a date.

    Laura : [as Steve walks he sobs and cries on Laura's shoulder]  What's the matter baby, did you eat some bad cheese again? Whoo!

    Steve Urkel : [sobbing]  No, it's Myra, her cold got worse. Her temperature shot up and she tossed more cookies than the Keebler elf. I rushed her to the emergency room and the doctor said she has walking pneumonia.

    Maxine Johnson : Will she be okay?

    Steve Urkel : [sobbing]  In about a week or so, but she gonna have to miss the prom.

    [crying] 

    Maxine Johnson : [Maxine starts to laugh while talking to Steve]  Ooh, hoo hoo. This is amazing! You know uh, Laura doesn't have a date for the prom either. This means you guys have to go together.

    [laughs] 

    Maxine Johnson : Bye!

    [Maxine laughs hysterically after she leaves the house]
