Directed by Gary Winick. Written by Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa.
For some, 13 feels like it was just yesterday. For Jenna, it was.(taglines)

Lucy

  • Okay, you can wipe the doe-eyed, Bambi-watching-her-mother-get-shot-and-strapped-to-the-back-of-the-van look from your face.

Matt

  • You don't always get the dream house, but you get awfully close, you know?
  • It doesn't matter what Lucy said. I stopped trusting her after she stole my PopRocks in the third grade.

Dialogue

[Jenna has invited the most popular girls in school to her 13th birthday party]
Young Matt: I can't believe you invited those clones.
Young Jenna Rink: They're my friends.
Young Matt: The Six Chicks are not your friends, okay?
Young Jenna Rink: Almost. And someday I'm gonna BE a Sixth Chick.
Young Matt: There are six of them, Jenna, that's the whole point. There can't be a seventh Sixth Chick. It's just mathematically impossible. Besides you're way cooler than they are, they're totally unoriginal.
Young Jenna Rink: I don't want to be original, Matty, I want to be cool.
[Repeated lines]
Matt: Arrivederci.
Jenna: Au revoir.
Mom: Just because you don't look like those girls in Poise magazine doesn't mean you're not beautiful in your own way.
Jenna: I don't wanna be beautiful in my own way. I wanna look like these people!
Mom: Oh, those aren't people, honey. Those are models.
Lucy: Can you get in the car?
Jenna: I can't get in the car, I don't get in the car with strangers.
Lucy: Please get in the car, we're gonna be late.
Jenna: I can't get in the car, I don't know you.
Lucy: Just get in the car.
Jenna: I don't get in the car with strangers!
Lucy: You're being a little paranoid.
Lucy: Richard, we are hiring new printers, we're installing passwords. We're building firewalls on all the computers. Jenna fired Charlotte yesterday.
Richard: Did you? Good, I guarantee she has friends at Sparkle. She was always taking notes.
Lucy: She was a secretary.
Richard: Yeah, whatever.
Becky: I like your dress.
Jenna: That's because I have these incredible boobs to fill it out!
Lucy: Speaking of disasters, what is she doing here?
Jenna: Who?
Lucy: Sparkle's editor in chief, Trish Sackett. Twelve o'clock and headed our way.
Trish: Hi, girls. Our J. Lo issue is selling like hotcakes. How's yours doing?
Lucy: My God, Trish, are things so bad you had to come to our party to eat free food? Please, put some crab in your purse for later.
Trish: You might want to keep some of that biting wit for your magazine. Or you could change the name to something more appropriate...like Poison or Pitiful. Whatever's more pathetic.
Jenna: You know what? You are rude and mean and sloppy and frizzy. I don't like you at all.
Arlene: I have your urgent messages.
Jenna: Let's hear them.
Arlene: Well, okay. Emily Pratt called and wanted me to tell you, "I can't believe you scooped my story on Vivienne Tam, you backbiting bitch. That was a new level of sleaze, even for you. I hope you die in one of her casual pantsuits."
Jenna:Oh, my God, that was so mean.
Arlene: Miss Lewis called. She said, "I hope you choke on your own bile, you pretentious, conniving snake."
Jenna: Maybe I should read them myself.
Beverly Rink: Well, Jenna, I know I made a lot of mistakes, but I don't regret making any of them.
Jenna: How come?
Beverly Rink: Because if I hadn't have made them, I wouldn't have learned how to make things right.
Jenna: I love you, Matt. You're my best friend.
Matt: Jenna... I've always loved you.
[Jenna returns to 1987, and has a second chance as Crazy for You by Madonna plays in the background.]
Young Lucy: [to Matt; snobbishly] Jenna's waiting for you in the closet.
[Young Lucy goes upstairs; Young Matt goes to closet, and opens door]
Young Jenna: [happily] Matty! [pounces on Young Matt and passionately kisses him.]
Young Matt: [impressed] Wow. You really know what you're doing.
Young Jenna: Come on.
Young Lucy: [takes scarf; snobbishly] Sorry, I forgot my scarf.
Young Jenna: [angrily snatches Lucy's homework, and rips it up] You know what? You can be the pot and kettle all by yourself from now on, [splashes Young Lucy's drink on her dress] biatch. [to Matt] Come on, Matt.
Young Lucy: [to Young Jenna; incensed and confused] What did you call me?!
Young Jenna: We're gonna be late.
Young Matt: For what?
Young Jenna: You'll see.
[last lines]
Jenna: A Razzle, Mr. Flamhaff?
Matt: Thank you, Mrs. Flamhaff.
