- [giving new inmate Tracy the lowdown on the screws]
- Lizzie Birdsworth: Aaw, Mrs M's beaut. Mrs Powell, Po-Face, she's not bad either. But you just keep away from that Ferguson.
- Tracey Belman: Why?
- Lizzie Birdsworth: Because she's a bent screw, in more ways than one.
- Tracey Belman: You mean she's a lesbian?
- Lizzie Birdsworth: And a liar. And a bash artist.
- Colleen Powell: Miss Ferguson, seeing as it's her first night here I want you to keep an eye on Tracy Belman. She's not proving very popular with the other women.
- Joan 'The Freak' Ferguson: Of course not. She's different. You've got to be popular to get on in Wentworth.
- Colleen Powell: [approaching Joan, who is seated] Well in that case she's not the only one in trouble.
- Joan 'The Freak' Ferguson: [looks up at her] Meaning?
- Colleen Powell: I don't appreciate having my private life aired to Mrs Reynolds.
- Joan 'The Freak' Ferguson: Oh, so that's it. Mrs Powell, anything I said to the governor about you was to do with your professional life, and if you insist on mixing the two then I'm afraid you have to cop the consequences.
- Meg Morris: Well, there was no need to inform on a fellow officer.
- Joan 'The Freak' Ferguson: [getting up] Oh I am sorry. I keep forgetting how close we all are.
- [she exits the staff room]
- Colleen Powell: [to Meg] Oh I'd like to remind the bitch - with a sledge hammer.
- Meg Morris: [after helping Tracy into her wheelchair] Did I hurt you?
- Tracey Belman: Don't be stupid; you know I'm paralysed!
- [last lines]
- Joan 'The Freak' Ferguson: [maniacally] Listen to her! Listen to her! We've done it! We've done it!
