Plot: A tale told over four seasons, starting in autumn when Juno, a 16-year-old high-school junior in Minnesota, discovers she's pregnant after one event in a chair with her best friend, Bleeker. In the waiting room of an abortion clinic, the quirky and whip-sharp Juno decides to give birth and to place the child with an adoptive couple. She finds one in the PennySaver personals, contacts them, tells her dad and step-mother, and carries on with school. The chosen parents, upscale yuppies (one of whom is cool and laid back, the other meticulous and uptight), meet Juno, sign papers, and the year unfolds. Will Juno's plan work, can she improvise, and what about Bleeker?

Quotes:

Paulie Bleeker: Come on, let me carry your bag.::Juno MacGuff: Oh, what's another ten pounds?

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

Juno MacGuff: So guess what.::Paulie Bleeker: [hesitant] What?... I don't know...::Juno MacGuff: I'm pregnant.

Juno MacGuff: What about Katrina De Voort? You could totally go out with Katrina De Voort.::Paulie Bleeker: No, I don't like Katrina. She smells like soup. Have you ever smelled her? I mean, her whole house smells like soup!

Juno MacGuff: Yeah, I'm a legend. You know, they call me the cautionary whale.

Juno MacGuff: As far as boyfriends go, Paulie Bleeker is totally boss. He is the cheese to my macaroni. And, I know that people are supposed to fall in love before they reproduce, but... I guess normalcy isn't really our style.

Ultrasound Technician: Well, there you have it. Would you like to know the sex?::Leah: Yes!::Juno MacGuff: No!::Leah: Pleease, Juno, please!::Juno MacGuff: No, there will be no sex!::Ultrasound Technician: Planning to be surprised when you deliver?::Juno MacGuff: 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 MacGuff: No, no, no. They're the adoptive parents.::Ultrasound Technician: Oh, well thank goodness for that!::Bren: What's that supposed to mean?::Ultrasound Technician: I just see a lot of teenage mothers come through here and it's obviously a poisonous environment to raise a baby in.::Juno MacGuff: 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. Have you considered that?::Ultrasound Technician: I guess not.::Bren: What is your job title exactly?::Ultrasound Technician: I'm an ultrasound technician, ma'am.::Bren: Well, I'm a nail technician and I think we both ought to just stick to what we know.::Ultrasound Technician: Excuse me?::Bren: Oh, you think you're so special because you get to play Picture Pages up there? Well, my five year old daughter could do that and let me tell you, she's not the brightest bulb in the tanning bed. So why don't you go back to night school in Mantino and learn a real trade.::Juno MacGuff: Bren! You's a dick! I love it!

Leah: Yo Yo Yiggady Yo.::Juno MacGuff: I'm at suicide risk.::Leah: Juno?::Juno MacGuff: No, it's Morgan Freeman. Do you have any bones that need collecting?::Leah: Only the one in my pants...::Juno MacGuff: I'm pregnant.::Leah: What? Honest to blog?::Juno MacGuff: Yeah. Yeah, it's Bleekers.::Leah: It's probably just a food baby. Did you have a big lunch?::Juno MacGuff: No, this is not a food baby all right? I've taken like three pregnancy tests, and I'm forshizz up the spout.::Leah: How did you even generate enough pee for three pregnancy tests? That's amazing...::Juno MacGuff: I don't know, I drank like, ten tons of Sunny D... Anyway dude, I'm telling you I'm pregnant and you're acting shockingly cavalier.::Leah: Is this for real? Like, for real for real?::Juno MacGuff: Unfortunately, yes.::Leah: Oh my GOD. Oh shit! Phuket, Thailand!::Juno MacGuff: There we go. That was kind of the emotion that I was searching for on the first take.

Mark Loring: So... Let's talk about how we're going to do this thing.::Juno MacGuff: What do you mean? Don't I just have the thing? Squeeze it on out and hand it over?::Gerta Rauss: Mark and Vanessa are willing to negotiate an open adoption...::Mac MacGuff: What do you mean?::Juno MacGuff: Wait... No! I mean, can't we just, like, kick this old school? Like, I have the baby, put it in a basket and send it your way, like, Moses and the reeds?::Mark Loring: Technically, that would be kicking it Old Testament.::Gerta Rauss: ...So, we all agree that a closed adoption is the best decision for all involved?::Juno MacGuff: SSHHIT! YES! Close it up!
