Abby Hagyard: Valerie Prevort

Quotes 

• Lance Prevort : Aw, this week without television is killin' me. How can you kids stand it without nothin' to watch?

  Alasdair Gillis : That's easy. See, I just go down to my friend's house and watch it there.

  Lance Prevort : Oh. Is that what your mother's doin'? I don't know how she can function without her soaps.

  Alasdair Gillis : No. Mom just goes down to the laundromat and watches the drier clothes tumble.

  Valerie Prevort : [bursting in]  Lance, you should have been there! Oh, it was so exciting! Mrs. Waller's nightgown got all entangled with Mr. Fink's pajama bottoms. And you know young Dr. Alexander? Well, his pink shirt kept chasing after that handsome young football jersey. I mean, who would have thought that young Dr. Alexander would be that kind of person?

• Valerie Prevort : [to the newspaper boy lugging his route bag]  Don't these big newspapers make you awfully tired?

  Alasdair Gillis : No, I just deliver 'em. I don't read 'em.
