Andy Hardy Meets Debutante (1940)

Andy Hardy is threatened to be exposed if he doesn't find a certain debutante he's infatuated with during his family vacation to New York City.

This is the second film starring Judy Garland in the Andy Hardy series and she reprises her role as Betsy Booth--the girl who can fix all of Andy's girl troubles. Betsy, as always, stands by Andy and may have the connections he needs to break free from his troubles.

All quotes submitted by FDR Clones

Betsy: I expect to live and die a bachelor.

Betsy: Oh, you and trouble just naturally gravitate to each other, don't you?

Betsy: Oh, why are some men so dumb?

Betsy: Whenever I get disillusioned, I always get a pain in my stomach.

Betsy: Oh, listen, I've got a song that if it doesn't wake Andy Hardy up, he must be made out of concrete!

Betsy: Maybe I wasn't as swell when I was in Carvel, or maybe you just didn't notice.

Betsy: If you mean that, maybe you'd better kiss me, even if we both don't want to.

Betsy: I'll bet ya Polly Benedict couldn't be glamorous with a shiny nose!
