Plot: Jeremiah Ward, a hot shot New York money manager, turns off the highway, straight into his past. In rural New Hampshire, he discovers confusing clues and ghostly reminders of not only people he knew forty years ago, but of the person he once was: an idealist, a visionary, whose clarity grew dimmer with each acquisition and every brilliant move on the career chess board. Exit 22-A seems to represent a portal connecting him with the values and virtue left behind, but it turns out to be much more. Melody, the daughter he never knew, has created the entire artifice, the road map and the cast of characters, determined to test Jeremiah's true convictions and to change his life. And, in doing so, saves it.

Quotes:

Agatha Trunchbull: Amanda Thripp!::Amanda Thripp: Yes, Miss Trunchbull?::Agatha Trunchbull: What are those?::Amanda Thripp: What's what, Ms. Trunchbull?::Agatha Trunchbull: Hanging down by your ears.::Amanda Thripp: You mean my pigtails?::Agatha Trunchbull: Are you a pig, Amanda?::Amanda Thripp: *No*, Ms. Trunchbull.::Agatha Trunchbull: Do I allow pigs in my school?::Amanda Thripp: My mommy thinks they're sweet.::Agatha Trunchbull: [bends down] Your mommy... is a TWIT!

Narrator: Everyone is born, but not everyone is born the same. Some will grow to be butchers, or bakers, or candlestick makers. Some will only be really good at making Jell-O salad. One way or another, though, every human being is unique, for better or for worse. [Harry takes his first look at Matilda, grunts, and leaves] Most parents believe their children are the most beautiful creatures ever to grace the planet. Others take a less emotional approach. [Harry and Zinnia are leaving the hospital with the baby]::Harry Wormwood: What a waste of time!::Zinnia Wormwood: And painful!::Harry Wormwood: And expensive, $9.25 for a bar of soap?::Zinnia Wormwood: Well I had to take a shower, Harry!::Harry Wormwood: $5,000? I'm not paying it. What're they going to do, repossess the kid?

Zinnia Wormwood: Look, Miss Snit, a girl does not get anywhere by acting intelligent! I mean, take a look at you and me. You chose books - I chose looks. I have a nice house, a wonderful husband... and you are slaving away teaching snot-nosed children their ABCs. You want Matilda to go to college? Ha, ha, ha, ha...::Harry Wormwood: College?::[scoffs]::Harry Wormwood: I didn't go to college. I don't know anybody who did. Bunch of hippies and cesspool salesmen, ha ha ha ha...::Jenny: [insulted] Don't sneer at educated people, Mr. Wormwood. If you became ill, heaven forbid, your doctor would be a college graduate.::Harry Wormwood: Yeah...::Jenny: Or - or say you were sued for selling a faulty car. The lawyer who defended you would have gone to college, too.::Harry Wormwood: What car? Sued by who? Who you been talking to?::Jenny: N-nobody. [sighs] I can see we're not going to agree, are we?

Harry Wormwood: A book? What do you want a book for?::Matilda: To read.::Harry Wormwood: To read? Why would you want to read when you got the television set sitting right in front of you? There's nothing you can get from a book that you can't get from a television faster.

Matilda: Daddy, you're a crook.::Harry Wormwood: What?::Matilda: This is illegal.::Harry Wormwood: [hands the car drill to Mikey, then walks to Matilda] You make money? Do you have a job?::Matilda: No, but don't people need good cars? Can't you sell good cars, Dad?::Harry Wormwood: Listen, you little wiseacre: I'm smart, you're dumb; I'm big, you're little; I'm right, you're wrong, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Agatha Trunchbull: I need a car, inexpensive but reliable. Can you service me?::Harry Wormwood: In a manner of speaking, yes. Uh, welcome to Wormwood Motors. Harry Wormwood, owner, founder, whatever.::Agatha Trunchbull: Agatha Trunchbull, principal, Crunchem Hall Elementary School.::Harry Wormwood: Huh.::Agatha Trunchbull: I warn you, sir, I want a tight car, because I run a tight ship.::Harry Wormwood: Oh yeah, huh, well, uh...::Agatha Trunchbull: My school is a model of discipline! Use the rod, beat the child, that's my motto.::Harry Wormwood: Terrific motto!::Agatha Trunchbull: You have brats yourself?::Harry Wormwood: Yeah, I got a boy, Mikey, and one mis-*take*, Matilda.::Agatha Trunchbull: They're all mistakes, children! Filthy, nasty things. Glad I never was one.

Agatha Trunchbull: You wanted cake, you got cake! Now EAT IT!

[after listing prices of cars bought and sold]::Harry Wormwood: What was my profit for the day?::Mikey: Could you repeat the last one?::Matilda: [interrupting] $10,265.::[long pause]::Matilda: Check it if you don't believe me.::Harry Wormwood: [he, Zinnia, and Mikey glance at the paper, then at Matilda] You're a little cheat, you saw the paper.::Matilda: From all the way over here?::Harry Wormwood: [suspicious] Are you being smart with me? If you're being smart with me, young lady, you're going to be punished.::Matilda: Punished for being smart?::Harry Wormwood: For being a smart aleck! When a person is bad, that person has to be taught a lesson!::Matilda: Person?::Harry Wormwood: Get up, get up...::Narrator: Harry Wormwood had unintentionally given his daughter the first practical advice she could use. He had meant to say, "When a child is bad." Instead he said, "When a person is bad", and thereby introduced a revolutionary idea: that children could punish their parents. Only when they deserved it, of course.

Written by Trunchbull on the blackboard: If you are having fun, you are not learning.

Matilda: I love it here! I love my school... it isn't fair! Miss Honey, please don't let them...::Harry Wormwood: [interrupting] Get in the car, Melinda!::Matilda: Matilda!::Harry Wormwood: Whatever.::Matilda: I want to stay with Miss Honey.::Zinnia Wormwood: Miss Honey doesn't want you. Why would she want some snotty, disobedient kid?::Jenny: Because she's a spectacularly wonderful child and I love her.::Matilda: Adopt me, Miss Honey! You can adopt me.::Harry Wormwood: Look, I don't have time for all these legalities!::Matilda: One second, Dad. I have the adoption papers.::Zinnia Wormwood: What? Where did you get those?::Matilda: From a book in the library. I've had them since I was big enough to Xerox.
