Amanda Strawn: Mrs. Robinson

Quotes 

• Mrs. Robinson : Are you all set?

  Janice Robinson : I bought the dye.

  Mrs. Robinson : How many times do we have to go through this? I'm not letting you put blue streaks in your hair.

  Janice Robinson : Why not? You dyed your hair. Why can't I dye mine?

  Mrs. Robinson : Because it's not the same thing and you know it.

  Janice Robinson : Mom, will you please stop treating me like a little girl?

  Mrs. Robinson : I will as soon as you stop acting like one.

• Mr. Robinson : Sorry, I couldn't wait.

  Sharon : Did you show your mom the rash?

  Mrs. Robinson : What rash?

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  Oh, I thought I had something but it's gone now.

  Mrs. Robinson : Well, keep an eye on it.

• Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  You know, Mom. I think you were right.

  Mrs. Robinson : About what?

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  Well, dying my hair blue is dumb and I don't thnk I'm ready to wear a dress like that. It's a little too old for me.

  Mrs. Robinson : Great! Why the change of heart?

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  Well, I decided it wasn't worth fighting over something so dumb.

  Sharon : Are you feeling okay?

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  Sure. I'll call the dress shop right now and have them take it off hold.

  Mr. Robinson : [to Mrs. Robinson]  See? I told you it was just a phase.

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson to Mr. and Mrs. Robinson]  You know, you should really get going. You know how crazy it gets at the flower depot. We'll clean up.

  Evil Chameleon : [On the phone]  Hello? This is Janice Robinson. I'd like to place an order. Yes, I'll hold.

• Evil Chameleon : Sharon? Sharon, are you up there?

  [switches back to guise of Janice when Mr. and Mrs. Robinson enter] 

  Mr. Robinson : Hi!

  Mrs. Robinson : Hi!

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  Hi! That was quick.

  Mr. Robinson : Are you kidding? We bought out the whole store.

  Mrs. Robinson : And we bought something for you too.

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  You did? What is it?

  Mrs. Robinson : Well, it's sort of an apology. We were both wrong and I know it's not the dress you wanted but I hope you like it anyway.

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  Oh, it's beautiful! Oh, thank you, Mom. I like it better than the other one.

  [to Sharon as she comes downstairs] 

  Evil Chameleon : What were you doing?

  Sharon : I went to get my hairbrush

  Mr. Robinson : [to Evil Chameleon in the guise of "Janice"]  Why don't you go try on the dress? We're gonna make some health drinks.

  [to Sharon and Mrs. Robinson] 

  Mr. Robinson : Come on, ladies.

  Sharon : Mrs. Robinson, don't you think Janice has been acting a little...

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson, wearing the new dress]  Ta-da!

  Mr. Robinson : Wow! You look fantastic!

  Mrs. Robinson : It's perfect!

  Evil Chameleon : [In the guise of Janice Robinson]  What do you think, Sharon? Is it me?

  Sharon : Yeah.

• Mrs. Robinson : Now, can we have a nice, quiet, problem-free weekend?

  Janice Robinson : No, we can't! It's never gonna be problem-free until you let me grow up!
