Sergeant Small: Ugh... shit! God, that is.. [Leaves in disgust]

Jet Girl: Thanks, I think it worked.

Tank Girl: [Grinning] What worked?

T-Saint: I say we kill 'em!

Donner: I say we hump 'em.

Booga: I say we eat crumpets and tea.

Deetee: Tasty! Crumpets and tea. All in favor of crumpets and tea, say "aye".

Rippers: Aye!

T-Saint: Shut up! Ain't gonna be no crumpets and tea.

Tank Girl: Who'd you used to be?

T-Saint: A cop.

Tank Girl: Figures.

[To Tank Girl and Jet Girl]

Deetee: Okay, we're gonna give you babes a chance to prove yourselves. Call it an initiation.

T-Saint: You fail, you die!

Donner: Yeah, but first, you gotta strip.

Booga: That's not in the plan.

Deetee, T-Saint, Donner: Why not?

Donner: And these are so you can hear us. [To Tank Girl] This one's for you. [To Jet Girl] And this one... I made especially for you. Let me help you put it on 'cause it's kinda tricky... [Donner 'accidentally' drops it down her shirt and fumbles for it] I'm sorry. How clumsy of me.
