In an updated version of Shakespeare’s “Taming of the Shrew,” new kid Cameron James is head over heels for popular sophomore Bianca Stratford in “10 things I Hate About You.” But Bianca’s father forbids her to date Cameron unless Bianca’s rebellious sister Kat dates.
Walter Stratford: Kissing? That’s what you think happens? I’ve got news for you. Kissing isn’t what keeps me up to my elbows in placenta all day long.

Bianca: Can we, for two seconds, ignore the fact that you’re severely unhinged and discuss my need for a night of teenage normalcy?

Walter Stratford: What’s normal? Those damn... Dawson’s river kids sleeping in each other’s beds and what not?

Bianca: Daddy that is so not...

Walter Stratford: I’ve got news for you. I’m down, I’ve got the 411, and you are not going out and getting jiggy with some boy, I don’t care how dope his ride is. Mamma didn’t raise no fool.
