Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • "I Can Hear the Bells."
    • The part where Tracy pins a random guy to a locker and continues singing as Penny visibly struggles to get her to release him in the background.
    • Also when she puts Penny's hand on her chest; prompting stares from others around and an awkward look from Penny.
  • When Tracy says on live TV in The Sixties that if she were president, "I'd make every day Negro Day!"
    • Alot of the stuff Tracy says and does is hilarious, really.
  • Link finally growing a spine and telling his history teacher to "kiss my ass" in the film version. (YMMV, though, as his later refusal to participate in the integration protest makes this a case of terribly uneven Character Development.)
    • Well it's one thing to just get in trouble at school and get a detention just to flirt with a girl, and quite another to risk losing your one chance to be discovered which is what he feared participating in the march would do.
  • Link's line after he shows up at the Turnblad residence.

Link: I can't believe Tracy savagely bludgeoned an Eagle Scout! That's just not like her.

  • Penny's mom tying her up with a jump rope and throwing holy water on her.

Penny's Mom: Devil child! Devil child!
