Jennifer Banko: Lucy Van Pelt

Quotes 

• [Linus comes home from the hospital] 

  Lucy Van Pelt : Where've you been?

  Linus van Pelt : Charlie Brown and I were visiting Janice in the hospital. They say she has leukemia.

  Lucy Van Pelt : While you're up, why don't you give me a glass of milk?

  [Linus does so, Lucy turns up the TV, Linus comes back with a glass of milk and gives it to Lucy] 

  Linus van Pelt : I remember that day in school when she said she wasn't feeling well. I remember touching her forehead and feeling how warm she was.

  Lucy Van Pelt : [shocked in disgust]  You touched her? And now you're handing me a glass of milk? You could catch leukemia from her and give it to me!

  Linus van Pelt : Cancer is not contagious. You can't catch it from somebody like a cold or the flu.

  Lucy Van Pelt : She probably got it because she's a creepy kid.

  Linus van Pelt : Janice didn't get cancer because of something she did wrong! It just happened.

  Lucy Van Pelt : [takes her milk back]  Well, anyway, take this milk back. I don't want it.

  Linus van Pelt : [pushes it away]  No thank you! I don't want to catch your crabbiness!

  [Linus leaves]
