Dialogue

Rollo: Well, well... If it isn't MacGuff the crime dog! Back for another test? Juno: I think the last one was defective. The plus sign looked more like a division sign, so I remain unconvinced. Rollo: Third test today, Mama Bear. Your eggo is preggo, no doubt about it. Tough Girl: [to Juno] It's really easy to tell. Is your nipples real brown? Rollo: Yeah. Maybe your little boyfriend's got mutant sperms. Knocked ya up twice. Juno: Silencio, old man! Look, I just drank my weight in Sunny-D and I gotta go, pronto! Rollo: Well, you know where the lavatory is. Rollo: [yells] You pay for that pee stick when you're done! Don't think it's yours just cuz ya marked it with your urine! Rollo: Well, fertile Myrtle, what's the prognosis? Minus or plus? Juno: [taking a pregnancy test] I don't know. It's not seasoned yet. [grabs some candy] I'll take some of these. Nope... There it is. The little pink plus sign is so unholy. Rollo: [as Juno shakes the test like a thermometer] That ain't no Etch-a-Sk

Dialogue

Leah: [on the phone] Yo, yo, yiggity yo. Juno: I'm a suicide risk. Leah: Juno? Juno: [sarcastically] No, it's Morgan Freeman. Do you have any bones that need collecting? Leah: Only the one in my pants!

Dialogue

Receptionist: Welcome to Women Now, where women are trusted friends. Please put your hands where I can see them and surrender any bombs. Juno: Hey, I'm here for the big show? Receptionist: Your name, please. Juno: Juno MacGuff. Juno: [Voiceover: She thinks I'm using a fake name like Gene Simmons or Mother Teresa] Receptionist: I need you to fill these out, both sides. And don't skip the hairy details. We need to know about every score and every sore. Would you like a free condom? They're boysenberry. Juno: No, thank you. I'm off sex. Receptionist: My boyfriend uses them every time we have intercourse. They make his junk smell like pie. Juno: ... [awkwardly walks away]

Dialogue

Leah: Dude, what are you doing here!? I'm supposed to come get you at 4. Juno: [pacing] I couldn't do it, Leah! It smelled like a dentist office in there, and there were these horrible magazines with water stains. And then the friggin' receptionist is trying to give me these condoms that look like grape suckers, and just babbling away about her friggin' boyfriend's pie balls. Leah: Yum! Juno: And Su-Chin was there, and she was like, "Oh hi! Babies have fingernails." Fingernails! Leah: That's gruesome. You think the baby can scratch your vag on the way out?

Dialogue

Juno: So, I'm not really sure how I'm gonna spit this out... Bren: Hon, did you get expelled? Juno: No. The school would most likely contact you in the event of my expulsion. Bren: Well, I was just asking; it seemed plausible enough, given your record of generally being the worst human in existence. Mac: What do you need, a large amount of money? Legal council? Need to pay off a Mexican drug lord? Juno: No, I'm not asking for anything... except for maybe mercy. Like, it would be friggin' sweet if no one hit me. Mac: Well, what have you done, Junebug? Did you hit someone with the Previa? Leah: [to Juno] Dude, I think it's best to just tell 'em. Juno: ...I'm pregnant. Bren: Oh, God. Juno: But, uh ah, I'm going to give it up for adoption and I already found the perfect couple. They're going to pay for the medical expenses and everything. And in... what, ah... thirty-odd weeks, we can just pretend that this never happened. Mac: You're pregnant? Juno: I'm sorry. I'm sorry... And if it's any

Dialogue

Mac: Tell me straight, Bren; do you think is this my fault? Bren: I think kids get bored and they have intercourse. And I think Junebug was a dummy about it, Mac. Mac: I am not ready to be a Pop Pop. Bren: You're not gonna be a Pop Pop. Somebody else is going to find a precious blessing from Jesus in this garbage dump of a situation.

Dialogue

Juno: I was thinking I could, like, have this baby and give it to someone that like totally needs it; like a woman with a bum ovary or a couple of nice lesbos. Leah: But then you're gonna get, like, huge, and your chest is gonna "milktate," and you're gonna have to, like, tell people that you're pregnant. Juno: Yeah, but maybe they'll, like, canonize me for being so selfless. Leah: Or maybe they'll, like, totally shit and be really, really mad and not let you graduate or go to Cabo for Spring Break. Juno: I was gonna go to Gettysburg with Bleeker, anyway. Leah: You should look at adoption ads. I see them all the time in the PennySaver. Juno: They have ads for parents? Leah: Yeah! "Desperately Seeking Spawn." Right next to, like, terriers and iguanas and used fitness equipment and stuff. It's, like, totally legit.

Dialogue

Mac: And this, of course, is Juno. Mark: Like the city in Alaska. Juno: No. Mark: No? [pause] Shall we sit down and get to know one another? Vanessa: Oh, I thought I would get some drinks. What would anyone like? I have Pellegrino, or Vitamin Water, or Orange Juice with folic acid or... Juno: I'll have a Maker's Mark. Up. Vanessa: ... Mac: She's kidding. Junebug has a wonderful sense of humor. Just one of her many genetic gifts.

Dialogue

Juno: Can't we just, like, kick this old school? You know, like I stick the baby in a basket, send it your way, like Moses and the reeds? Mark: Technically, that would be kicking it Old Testament.

Dialogue

Ultrasound Technician: Well, there you have it. Would you like to know the sex? Leah: Yes! Juno: No! Leah: Pleease, Juno, please! Juno: No, there will be no sex! Ultrasound Technician: Planning to be surprised when you deliver? Juno: Well, no, but I want Mark and Vanessa to be surprised and if you tell me, I'll just, like, ruin everything. Ultrasound Technician: Are Mark and Vanessa your friends at school? Juno: No, no, no. They're the adoptive parents. Ultrasound Technician: Oh, well, thank goodness for that. Bren: (outraged) What the hell's that supposed to mean? Ultrasound Technician: (uncomfortably) I just see a lot of teenage mothers come through here, and it's obviously a poisonous environment to raise a baby in. Juno: How do you know I'm so poisonous? What if these adoptive parents turn out to be, like, evil molesters? Leah: Or, like, stage parents. Bren: They could be utterly negligent. Maybe they'll do a far shittier job of raising a kid than my dumbass step-daughter would. Ha

Dialogue

Vanessa: Your parents are probably wondering where you are. Juno: Nah, I'm already pregnant, so what other kind of shenanigans could I get into?

Dialogue

Juno: We don't even have a dog! Bren: No, because you're allergic to their saliva. I have sacrificed a lot for you, Juno. But in a couple years, when you move out, I'm going to get Weimaraners. Juno: WHOA, DREAM BIG! Bren: Oh, go fly a kite!

Dialogue

Mark: [dancing with Juno] I'm leaving Vanessa. Juno: [pulls away from him] What?! Mark: I'm getting a place in the city. I've got it all planned. This is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Juno: No! Mark: No? Juno: No! You definitely... can't do that. That's one big, fat sack of no! Mark: What is the matter? Juno: I mean, [touching her belly] you guys are supposed to take care of this, ya know?! Mark: I thought you'd be cool with this. Juno: Cool!? I want things to be perfect! I don't want them to be shitty and broken like everyone else's family. Mark: ... Juno: Look, I'll have the baby and Vanessa's gonna be so happy. You just- Mark: A baby's not gonna fix everything, I don't even know if I'm ready to be a father. Juno: But you're old! Mark: [scoffs] ...How do you think of me? You know, why are you over here? Juno: ...I-I just like being a piece of furniture in your weird life. Mark: This. This is what my life has become. I mean, ya know, I got stuff in boxes. I'm, I'm

Dialogue

Juno: I just need to know that it's possible that two people can stay happy together forever. Mac: It's not easy, that's for sure. I don't have the best track record in the world, I know, but I've been with your stepmother for ten years now and I'm proud to say that we're very happy. Look... In my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you. The right person is still gonna think the sun shines out of your ass. That's the kind of person worth sticking with. Juno: [thinking of Paulie] Yeah... I think I've found that person. Mac: Sure, you have. Your old D-A-D!

Dialogue

Juno: I think I'm in love with you. Paulie: You mean as friends? Juno: No, I mean for real. 'Cause you're, like, the coolest person I've ever met — and you don't even have to try, you know... Paulie: I try really hard, actually. Juno: You're, like, naturally smart and you're not like everyone else. You don't stare at my stomach all the time, you look at my face and every time I see you, the baby starts kicking super hard. Paulie: It does? Paulie: Wizard. Juno: I think it's 'cause my heart starts pounding every time I see you. Paulie: Mine too. Juno: That's all I could ask for. You're gold, man. Paulie: Can we make out now? Juno: Yeah. [kisses him] Leah: (seeing them) Hey, you know, you can go into early labor sucking face like that!

Dialogue

Juno: [After her water breaks] Dad! Mac: What? Juno: Either I just peed my pants or... Mac: ...Or?! Juno: THUNDERCATS ARE GOOOOOO!

Dialogue

Juno: [in labor] Bren, when do I get that friggin' spinal tap thing?! Bren: It's called a spinal block and you can't have it yet, honey. The doctor said you're not dilated enough. Juno: Come on! I mean, it's like I have to wait for it to get worse! Why can't I just have the friggin' thing now?! Bren: Honey, doctors are sadists who like to play God and watch lesser people scream. Juno: Ahhhhhhh! Bren: Oh, shit. [yelling out in the hall] Excuse me! Can we give my kid the damn spinal tap already?!

Dialogue

Vanessa: [holding the baby for the first time] How do I look? Bren: Like a new mom. Scared shitless.
