Lord knows you don't pay coloreds enough to afford pearls! And I work like a DOG, day and night, living on coffee from a pot ''(tearfully, as she turns and yells at the others)'' '''''none of you want to TOUCH!''''' So, excuse me if I have to go to the restroom a few times a day.

** The actual moment that inspired this scene was undeniably more awesome. Instead if hauling ass across the campus to use the restroom, the real Katherine just ''used the whites-only lavatories.'' Legal or no, she wasn't about to let something like a toilet stop her from doing her job effectively.
