Charlotte 'Charlie' Cantilini : You must be present for every Christmas, Thanksgiving, birthday, school play, clarinet recital, and soccer game in our kids' lives. I want you to love them, and spoil them and teach them things that Kevin and I can't. Like how to throw a right hook for example. I want you there, Viola. I do, up front and center. From this point i will not negotiate.
Ruby : Damn, that girl can give a nice little speech!

[looks down at card]
Viola Fields : 39 million albums. CDs. And millions of kids listen to your lyrics. "If you wanna know me, look inside my make-up bag". You're influencing an entire population of kids who won't know how to think straight. Or how to vote for a president. Or understand the significance of Roe vs Wade.
Pop Star : Oh!
