Scene Description
Dialogue
Lisa Houseman
I've decided to go all the way with Robbie.
Baby Houseman
No, no, not with someone like him.
Lisa Houseman
Do you think if we came back for a ten-year anniversary, it would be free?
Baby Houseman
It's just wrong this way. It should be with someone -- with someone that you sort of love.
Lisa Houseman
Come on. You don't care about me. You wouldn't care if I humped the entire army, as long as we were on the right side of the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
What you care about is that you're not Daddy's girl anymore.
He listens when I talk now. You hate that.
Song Lyrics

After viewing the film, I've just come up two very clever nicknames for Lisa and Baby: Manyara and Nyasha. That's actually a reference to the "Reading Rainbow" book, "Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters", by John Steptoe, in case you're wondering. Lisa in Manyara and Baby is Nyasha. Like Manyara, Lisa is selfish and spoiled, whereas, like Nyasha, Baby is selfless and charitable.
