  • And let's not forget the leather jacket.

  • And the heavy drinking.

  • And the sarcasm.

  • Oh!

  • That was fun.

  • And the body that will not quit.

  • 22 years later and I'm still a knockout.

  • But maybe there's more to what makes a strong female lead.

  • Are you leading or am I?

  • I have no idea.

  • Maybe she also has flaws, ambitions, brains.

  • Touche.

  • Do you mean touché? What?

  • Is it not touche? No.

  • Be married.

  • Be clueless.

  • Oh, do you know how many problems

  • we have solved over a cheesecake?

  • No, Dorothy, exactly how many--
