Mamma Mia!

Donna:
You sound like you're having fun already.

Lisa:
Oh, we are.

Donna:
[nostalgically] I used to have fun.

Ali:
Oh, we *know*!

[Donna looks puzzled]

Sophie:
I'm so glad you're here because... I have a secret, and I can't tell anybody else.

Ali:
Sophie! You're knocked up?

Sophie:
No! no! no! Um... I've invited my dad to my wedding.

Lisa:
You are joking!

Ali:
You found him at last?

Sophie:
No! No, no, no, no, no. Not exactly.

Rosie:
[to Tanya] It's very Greek.

Sam Carmichael:
The last time I saw your mother, she said she never wanted to see me again.

Donna:
Somebody up there has got it in for me. I bet it's my mother.

Rosie:
[to Tanya] Typical isn't it? You wait 20 years for a dad and then three come along at once.

Sky:
It's my stag do - my last night of freedom. Which is how some people might see it. But for me, it's the last night before the greatest adventure of my life.

Donna:
Why are you here? What are you doing here?

Bill:
I'm writing a travel piece.

Harry Bright:
I'm, I'm here on a spontaneous holiday.

Sam Carmichael:
Er, I just dropped in to say... hi.

Tanya:
[to Sophie] I bet you don't remember me.

Rosie:
Not with all that plastic surgery.

Harry Bright:
[introducing himself] I'm Bright. Harry Bright.

Sophie:
You took... Mom's guitar!

Harry Bright:
No, I borrowed it. Look... Now, where is it? "D.S." - Donna Sheridan, and, er, "H.B." - Head-Banger.

Sam Carmichael, Bill:
[both] "Head-Banger"?

Harry Bright:
I bought her this. It cost me ten quid, plus my Johnny Rotten T-shirt. Your mother knew quite a rebel.

Pepper:
[preparing a cocktail for Tanya] Now, baby, this should tickle your taste buds.

Tanya:
Down, big fella. I'm old enough to be your mother.

Rosie:
Grandmother.

Rosie:
[to Donna, holding up Tanya's underwear] Does she wear it or floss with it?

Tanya:
Floss you!

Donna:
Is it edible Tanya?

Rosie:
I'm a lone wolf!

Sophie:
[reading Donna's diary] "We danced on the beach, and we kissed on the beach, and... dot, dot, dot."

Harry Bright:
Bugger.

Sam Carmichael:
My sentiments exactly.

Tanya:
Whatever happened to our Donna? Life and soul of the party! El Rock Chick Supremo!

Donna:
I grew up.

Tanya:
Well, then, grow back down again!

[Bill has just realized that he might be Sophie's father]

Sophie:
You know what comes next?

Bill:
Well, you're not going to tell me that you have a twin sister, are you?

Sam Carmichael:
I've done the big white wedding, and believe me, it doesn't always end in "happy ever after".

Sophie:
That is you, that's not me! Okay? I love Sky more than anything in the world, and I... Arrgh! Did you feel that way before you got married?

Sam Carmichael:
[thinks about that] No.

Tanya:
[before singing 'Does Your Mother Know'] Little boys who play with fire get their fingers burned.

Donna:
I better be dreaming, you better not be here.

Bill:
You want me to pinch you Donna?

Sam Carmichael:
[after Donna falls on Harry's air bed] You always knew how to make an entrance.

Sophie:
Do you think I'm letting you down?

Donna:
Why would you even think that?

Sophie:
Oh, because... of what you've done. I mean, the Dynamos, raising a kid... and running a business, all on your own.

Donna:
Well, honey - I didn't have a choice. I couldn't go home. You know? When I got pregnant, my mother told me not to bother coming back. And I wouldn't have had it any other way. My God, look at what *we've* had.

Harry Bright:
Donna must be tearing her hair out doing this wedding on her own. What would the father of the bride normally do?

Tanya:
Pay.

[beat]

Tanya:
Though my dad drew the line at my third.

Tanya:
All that fricking yoga's made my feet bigger.

Donna:
Okay, now, the thing about the toilet... If it doesn't flush right away, just go, and come back in a while, and it should... Nothing works around here, except for me.

Donna:
I'm gonna arrange for a boat to take you all back to the mainland.

Bill:
I have a boat, Donna.

Donna:
You have a boat? Good, get on it. And, er, anchors aweigh!

Sam Carmichael:
Hey...

Donna:
Away aweigh!

Sam Carmichael:
Donna...

Bill, Sam Carmichael, Harry Bright:
[together] It's good to see you!

Donna:
[about the three "dads"] They have no right to turn up like this. What have they ever done for their daughter? Huh?

Rosie:
Donna, Donna, they didn't know she existed.

Donna:
Well, they didn't need to know, did they? I've done a great job with Soph all by myself, and I won't be muscled out by an e... jaculation!

Donna:
[at the wedding ceremony] And welcome to... to... Sophie's dad. I have to tell you, he is here.

Sophie:
I know. I invited him.

Donna:
You couldn't have. I don't know which one it is.

Sophie:
I don't care if you slept with hundreds of men. You're my mom, and I love you so much.

Donna:
[hugging her] Oh, Soph!

Donna:
[to the congregation] And I haven't slept with *hundreds* of men.

Donna:
[about the possible dads] I don't know where they are, I don't know why they're here, and I have brought this all on myself because I was a stupid, reckless little slut!

Tanya:
Whoa-ho-ho-ho! Don't you sound like your mother!

Sam Carmichael:
Am I getting this right? Sophie may be mine, but she may be Bill's or Harry's?

Donna:
Yeah. Yes! That's right. And don't get all self-righteous with me, because you have no one but yourself to blame!

Sophie:
Yeah, if you hadn't just dumped my mother and gone off and married somebody else...

Sam Carmichael:
Hey, hey, wait a minute. I had to go home. I was engaged. But I told Lorraine I couldn't marry her and I came right back!

Donna:
You... you... Why didn't you call me?

Sam Carmichael:
Because I was crazy enough to think that you would be waiting for me. Only when I arrived, they told me you were off with some other guy. So... Lorraine called me an idiot and married me to prove it.

Tanya:
[when a crack appears in the courtyard] What's going on?

Donna:
[laughs] D'you feel it? The earth moved, darling. We're falling apart here.

[she snatches the bottle of champagne from Tanya's hands and walks off]

Donna:
Don't think about it. Come on. Let's go have fun.

Sam Carmichael:
[while Donna and the Dynamos are singing "Super Trouper"] Our song!

Harry Bright:
Your song? It's *my* song!

Rosie:
[in a very Cockney accent] Excuse me! Hello! This is a hen party. Women only! Thank you.

Sam Carmichael:
Okay.

Sophie:
I want the perfect wedding, and I want my father to give me away.

Ali:
Better be a wide aisle!

Tanya:
[talking about Donna's money troubles and her life in general] Yeah, but are you being taken care of?

Donna:
What do you mean?

Tanya:
Are you getting any?

Donna:
Oh, you mean...

[turns on the drill, making loud noises]

Donna:
[to the drill] Down, boy. Down, boy! No, it takes too much energy.

Rosie:
Yeah, just more plumbing to be maintained, isn't it?

Donna:
Ohh, look at my baby, her whole life ahead of her!

Sophie:
Oh *please*, I'm getting married, I'm not joining a convent!

Rosie:
[talking about Sophie] She's a chip off the old block!

Donna:
If she were more like *me*, she wouldn't be getting married at 20.

Tanya:
Or married at all!

Tanya:
[looks in the basket that a local woman is holding] Waaaaaahhh!

[Tanya catches herself]

Rosie:
It's just a fish!

[some people chuckle around them]

Rosie:
[regarding Sam, Bill and Harry] Now, listen, listen, what we're gonna do is... we'll get them plastered tonight, and then tomorrow, Tanya and I will take them fishing.

Tanya:
Fishing? Oh, please!

Rosie:
What do you suggest we do with three men?

Tanya:
Well, then, now, THAT takes me back.

Sky:
[talking about Sam, Bill, and Harry] You invited these guys and you didn't tell me?

Sophie:
No, I thought you would... try to stop me. I *know* I messed up...

Sky:
Sophie... is that what this whole big white wedding is about? You finding your dad?

Sophie:
No, no!

Sky:
I wanted to take a boat to the mainland with a couple of witnesses, and you *insisted* on this sodding circus so you could play happy families.

Sophie:
It's about knowing who I am and... and I wanted to get married knowing who I am!

Sky:
That doesn't come from finding your father. That comes from finding yourself, and... The irony is, I was travelling to find *myself*, and... I put everything on hold, for you. Because I loved you, and I wanted what you wanted. Now I don't know.

Sophie:
You don't know if you love me.

Sky:
Of course I *love* you. I just wish you'd told me!

Rosie:
Excuse me! Coming through! I have a senior citizen with me. Thank you. My mother needs a perch.

Tanya:
Mother? We're the same age!

Rosie:
Yeah. Well, parts of us are.

Donna:
Sky! Come meet my backup girls.

Rosie, Tanya:
Backup girls, my arse!

Sky:
You must be Tanya. I've heard so much about you.

Tanya:
Oh. All bad, I hope.

Sky:
Yes.

Donna:
And all true!

Rosie:
[looking down the hatch of Bill's boat] Cooee!

Bill:
Heey! Right in time for breakfast. We're serving up the works here.

[he turns around, revealing his bare bottom]

Rosie:
Oh! Think you just did!

Sam Carmichael:
I see you kept my bagpipes.

Donna:
They're supposed to ward off unwanted visitors.

Sam Carmichael:
Oh, you don't need bagpipes to do that.

Sophie:
God, I love Sky and I want to be with him and I... I don't want my children growing up, not knowing who their father is, because it's just, it's crap!
