- Maxine Johnson: I've figured out what I want to do with my life, take a look.
- Laura Winslow: [unfolds the paper] Learn to drive the big rigs?
- Maxine Johnson: No, the other side. I'm going to apply to beauty school.
- Laura Winslow: Maxine, what about our plans? We were going to go to college together, then I'd be a lawyer defending your million dollar hedge firm.
- Maxine Johnson: That was great when we were 12, but a lot's changed since then.
- Laura Winslow: Like what?
- Maxine Johnson: Like my grades aren't good enough to get into college, I've applied to 30 of them and they all turned me down, even UOB.
- Laura Winslow: UOB?
- Maxine Johnson: The University of Bob.
- Laura Winslow: Maxine, you could do better than a silly little beauty school.
- Maxine Johnson: Well I like doing hair, and that silly little beauty school accepted me, and I'm going. Thanks for the vote of confidence.
