Natalie Green : It's a great school. A person would have to be nuts to turn down a chance to go there.
Dorothy 'Tootie' Ramsey : Especially if she were offered a scholarship.
Jo Polniaczek : I knew it. Mrs. G squealed.
Natalie Green : [picks up mike] Nobody has to squeal when Natalie Green is on the scene. I found your ripped-up envelope and put two and two together. I call it superior investigative reporting.
Alexandra 'Alex' Lambarti : I call it looking through garbage.
Natalie Green : One must do what one must do.
