Best lines:
“Is this you not arguing about it? ‘Cause you suck at it.” Eric to Grace.

“Perhaps it’s because everyone else worth having had a contestant. They had their southern belles, their mid-western farmers daughters, spunky western cowgirls and I have¼Dirty Harriet.” Victor explaining why he got picked to transform Gracie.

“Eyebrows. There should be two.” Victor giving instructions for Grace’s makeover.

“Washington¼nice apples.” Perverted pageant assistant, Frank.

“There’s something I know how to do. I haven’t done it since high school, but it’s kinda like riding a bike.”
“You’re not having sex on this stage.”
“I didn’t know it was an option.” Grace and Victor discussing what she should do for the talent competition.

“In place of friends and relationships, you have sarcasm and a gun.” Victor to Grace. (I LOVE this line!)

“You’re easy to talk to, when you’re not armed.” Eric to Grace.

“What? Hemorrhoid ointment. You really think the judges are going to be looking that closely.” Grace to Victor.
