Biff Grimes: I uh, I guess a little kiss is harmless if it's all in fun. Amy Lind: Even if it isn't in fun. Biff Grimes: You mean---? Amy Lind: Exactly.

Biff Grimes: I'm gonna have a smoke. Amy Lind: May I have one too, please? Biff Grimes: Oh, sure. Hey! Don't tell me you smoke! Amy Lind: Only when I'm bored. Biff Grimes: Well, your mother's a bloomer girl, you're a nicotine fiend, are there any more at home like you? Amy Lind: I have an aunt who's an actress.
