Effie Melody White: So... Deena's going to sing the lead 'cause you like the way she looks? Am I ugly to you, Curtis? Curtis Taylor Jr.: Baby, come on! You know how I feel about you, come on. Don't make it personal. Effie Melody White: Well, what am I supposed to do? Deena's beautiful, and she's always been beautiful... but I've got the voice, Curtis! I've got the voice! You can't put me in back; you just can't!
Lorrell Robinson: [as Early is kissing her] That feels nice... I mean it feels funny! You're married, aren't you? James 'Thunder' Early: Everybody knows Jimmy's married, baby. Lorrell Robinson: Well, then, you get your married hands off!
