Struggling for Independence and Self-Identity
Muriel Sharon:
Mary, my God! Where have you been? We've been worried sick about you!
Mary Sharon:
Pack your bags, Mother. We're flying to New York tonight.
Muriel Sharon:
Whatever for? Jonathan's...
Mary Sharon: [rises her voice; slight pause]
MOM!!! For 21 years now, I've listened to you and Father tell me what to do. You've painted a picture of a perfect world and you framed it with hypocrisy, stubbornness and lies! And you've hung it on a trust fund I can't get till I marry a man I don't even love. Doesn't it matter to you... and Daddy what I-I want?
Muriel Sharon:
Of course it does, dear, but...
Mary Sharon:
Mother, look at me. I am your painting. I hurt real bad.
Muriel Sharon:
Oh, Mary. Mary. Don't you think I hurt too? We all hurt a little.

A Playful Exchange Between Two Characters
Christopher Tracy:
You know, I wish your dear father could see us when we kiss. It's a little bit different than it is with your rich boyfriend, ain't it?
Mary:
As a matter of fact, it's not so hot, you bit me once.
Christopher Tracy:
Given the chance, I'd knock the bottom out of them drawers.
Mary:
And your hair's greasy. Do you use cooking oil?
Christopher Tracy: [imitates Mary]
Christopher, this is so nice. I've never done it in a piano before".
Mary:
Oh, you're obnoxious!
Christopher Tracy: [imitates Mary again; he stops when she starts sobbing]
You probably real quiet at first. "Oh, oh." Then you get loud. "OH! OH". And then you get black. "Oh shit! Christopher, oh shit! Oh baby! Oh no!" Aw, did I hurt little Mary's feelings? You ain't funky at all. You're just a little old prude. A little rich arty poop.
Mary:
Shut up!
Christopher Tracy:
Jesus Christ. Shut up? I'm calling your daddy this instant.
