Quotes 

• [as the manager exits, he reminds Mel to talk to Rob] 

  Rob Petrie : What are you supposed to talk to me about?

  Mel Cooley : Oh, well, it's, uh, private, Rob.

  Buddy Sorrell : Private? I know. He wants to steal their hair, and he wants you to drive the getaway car.

• [first lines] 

  [Rob, Sally, and Buddy escape into a rehearsal room, while being pursued by a mob of screaming teenaged girls] 

  Rob Petrie : [successfully diverting the throng by yelling]  The Redcoats have gone backstage!

  [the girls run off] 

  Buddy Sorrell : Oh boy!

  Rob Petrie : Do you think the Redcoat craze is just a publicity stunt?

  Buddy Sorrell : I haven't heard screaming like this since I told my wife my mother was comin' for a visit.

• Buddy Sorrell : Boy, if I had funny hair like that and no talent, I could have made a million.

  Sally Rogers : Yeah? You do, you don't, and you didn't, so shut up.
