Welcome to the Dollhouse Page #7

Synopsis: Seventh-grade is no fun. Especially for Dawn Weiner when everyone at school calls you 'Dog-Face' or 'Wiener-Dog.' Not to mention if your older brother is 'King of the Nerds' and your younger sister is a cutesy ballerina who gets you in trouble but is your parents' favorite. And that's just the beginning--her life seems to be falling apart when she faces rejection from the older guy in her brother's band that she has a crush on, her parents want to tear down her 'Special People's Club' clubhouse, and her sister is abducted....

any of the problems?

Good morning, students.

All Hummingbird chorus members...

going on the concert tour

to Disney World this year...

must hand in signed permission slips

by this Friday, the latest.

On a more worrisome note,

drugs were found...

extinguished yesterday

in the boys' lavatory.

Now, I want to remind you all that any

student caught using or selling drugs...

will be immediately expelled from school

and dealt with by the police.

There will be no exceptions.

Drugs are illegal.

Just say no.

Thank you

for your attention.

- Mrs. Iannone?

- Yes, Cookie?

- I have an announcement.

- Go ahead.

For everyone coming to my birthday

party, remember to bring a bathing suit.

That's all.

- Hey, Cookie.

- What do you want?

How come I wasn't invited?

Jed and Lance were.

Oh, well, I really

would have, Brandon...

but we needed an even number

of girls and boys...

and if you were invited...

there would be too many boys.

Well, I got something for you.

- What is it?

- Open it up.

I didn't eat my dessert

at lunch today.

I saved it for you.

Now can I come to

your birthday party this weekend?

But Brandon,

this didn't even cost anything.

- What are you looking at?

- N-Nothing.

Sorry about your locker.

It's okay. I mean, it's not really

mine anyway. It's the school's.

Anyway, I hate those

stupid kinds of parties.

They always treat you

like little kids.

- She probably had a f***ing magician.

- Yeah.

I hate parties too.

My parents are tearing

this down tomorrow.

F***. What for?

- Their anniversary.

- A**holes.

- Where'd you get that cassette player?

- Ralphy gave it to me.

- Why do you hang out with that f*ggot?

- Ralphy?

- Yeah.

- Just because he's a f*ggot...

doesn't mean he's an a**hole.

Yeah, maybe.

I can't be your girlfriend.

Huh?

I want to,

but I'm in love with someone else.

- Who?

- You wouldn't know him.

- What's his name?

- It's no one you know.

- What's his name?

- He's older.

- What's his f***ing name?

- Steve Rodgers. He's in high school.

Brandon, wait!

Where are you going?

We still have some Yodels left!

A**hole.

Don't feel bad, Dawn.

Brandon McCarthy's just a retard.

F*ggot!

It was 20 years ago today

When Harv and Marj were married

There were three little twinkles

in their eyes

When over the threshold

Marj was carried

Harv and Marj

you're the greatest

You're the greatest couple

the world has ever seen

We love you both

We wish you the best

Happy anniversary

great joy and happiness

Happy anniversary

Happy anniversary to you

Happy anniversary

Happy anniversary to you

You're the king

of the breadwinners, Harv

And Marj

you're the queen of mothers

Missy, Mark and Dawn
