- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: [to Louise] You know, when Henry showed me your picture, I never expected you to be so funny. You looked so serious.
- Cherie Johnson: Yeah, and you were so skinny!
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: Cherie!
- Cherie Johnson: Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say that you're...
- Louise: Fat? Humongous? Ready for statehood?
- Cherie Johnson: Well...
- Louise: Hey, relax. Some people have big noses, some people have big ears...
- Cherie Johnson: I've got a big mouth.
- Louise: I have a big everything!
- Margaux Kramer: Do I spy a stranger?
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: Oh. Margaux, this is my cousin Louise. Louise, this is Margaux.
- Louise: It's nice to meet you.
- Margaux Kramer: Nice to meet you, too.
- [turns to Punky & Cherie]
- Margaux Kramer: What's the weight capacity for this treehouse?
- Louise: I'm weak, seriously weak. The only thing I can't resist is temptation.
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: But I just...
- Louise: I don't need a lecture from Little Miss Perfect, okay?
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: Louise, I...
- Louise: Get off my back, all right?
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: Good night.
- [begins to leave]
- Louise: Hold it. Punky, it's easy for you. You're thin, you're cute, you're popular. You don't know what it's like to have real problems.
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: I use Punky Power.
- Louise: What's that?
- Penelope 'Punky' Brewster: It's a lot of things. It's believing in myself, it's never giving up, it's faith that things are going to turn out OK, but most of all, it's knowing that I can do anything I want if I really try.
