A scene from Heathers 1989
Heather Duke

[J.D. shows Heather pictures]

Me and Martha Dumptruck? Where did you get this?

J.D.

I just had the nicest little chat with Ms. Dumptruck. Got along famously. It's kind of scary that everyone's got a little story to tell. You wanna see the canoeing shots?

Heather Duke

What is this? Blackmail? [pause] I'll give you a week's lunch money.

J.D.

I don't want your money. I want your strength. Westerburg does not need mushy togetherness. It needs a strong leader. Heather Chandler was that leader but...

Heather Duke

But she couldn't handle it.

J.D.

I think you can. Moby Dick is dunked. The white whale drank some bad plankton and splashed through a coffee table and now it's your turn to take the helm.

Heather Duke

What about the photographs?

J.D.

Oh, don't worry. I'll ask you to do me a favor. That will be one you'll enjoy. Then you'll get the negatives and everything back then. But in the meantime... strength. Here's a little gift. From Heather to Heather. [gives her Heather Chandler's red hair bow]
