- Logan Bruno: [to Alan who is trying to get Dawn to like him and just squirted her with a novelty flower] I said give her a flower, not squirt her with one!
- Kristy Thomas: Hi, I'm Kristy. I'm the founding member of the Baby-Sitters Club. I don't mean to brag or anything but we're famous, here in Stoneybrook. Everybody knows us. That's because everybody uses us. You call one number, and get connected with seven incredible babysitters. This is Stacey, she's our club treasurer. She's good at keeping track of money, she's also good at spending it. Stace was raised in New York City. Sometimes she thinks she still lives there. That's Mary Anne. When we were little, we used to live next door to each other. She's kind of quiet, kind of serious. Why are we friends? They say opposites attract. Dawn's Mary Anne's stepsister. She grew up in California. Dawn really cares about the environment. Her biggest regret is that she wasn't born on earth day. Claudia's an amazing artist. She's REALLY talented. I mean, do you anybody who can take a fourk and a hammer and turn it into... That? And of course Mallory, she's a junior member of the club. She started her novel when she turned eleven and is determined to finish it by the time she's eleven and a half. Jessi is Mallory's best friend and another junior member of the club. Jessi's motto is ''Why walks when you can dance?''. You know, we're more than just a club. We're friends. Best friends. Nothing could ever change that.

- Stacey: That's a great idea!
- Mallory Pike: We could have a fax machine!

- Claudia Kishi: That would sure let me off the hook if I flunk.
- Mary Anne Spier: You're not going to flunk.
- Kristy Thomas: Claud, I'll help you.

- Claudia Kishi: It's my life.
- Mallory Pike: Then get interested.
- Luca: Why don't we go out on Saturday? We could go to the movies so if nothing is playing, you could show me around Stoneybrook.
- Stacey: Well, this is kind of it. I mean, it's not like New York City or anything. That's where I grew up. Have you ever been there?
- Luca: No, not yet.

- Patrick Thomas: To see you. I missed you.
- Kristy Thomas: Well, you could have came before. Nothing was stopping you.
- Patrick Thomas: I tried.
- Kristy Thomas: Dad, you sent like two postcards in five years, or something. I was always thinking you would come. You never did, ever. I wait for you every year, you never even called. You don't care about me and everyone who does care about me's mad at me. I can't do this anymore. I've never lied to my mom or my friends and since you've got here, that's all I've been doing and I hate it. It's all your fault. I'm going to tell Mom you're here.
- Patrick Thomas: Kristy, we had a deal.

- Stacey: Well, it would've been nice if you were there to tell her that.
- Kristy Thomas: I had an appointment, okay?
- Claudia Kishi: Since when is a date an appointment?
- Kristy Thomas: It wasn't a date! Look, Claud, I said I was sorry. I'll talk to her, it's no big deal.
- Mary Anne Spier: It is a big deal, Kristy. We could lose the camp.
- Kristy Thomas: I said I'd handle it, okay?
- Stacey: I have to go meet Lucas.
- Jessi: I have to sit for Becca.
- Dawn Schafer: Come on, Mary Anne. The Masons are coming for dinner.
