"I'll have enough experience that Dr. Foster will consider me... for Vice Principal." " Why don't you just ask?" "You can't just ask for a promotion, you know." "You have to earn the promotion with years of good work." "[CHUCKLING]" "What's funny?" "Ah." "How's that working out for you, Jess?" "Do you see this volleyball?" "It won't get over the net because you want it to... and you hope someone will notice." "I'm gonna ask you one more time." "What do you want?" " Um, I want to be Vice Principal." " All right." "Spike that ball, Jess." "Oh." "That's not..." "Okay." "Um..." " You got to spike it." " You're not..." " I'm not very good..." " Spike it!" " I've never been good with athlete balls." " Spike it!" "What do you want?" " To be Vice Principal." " Tell me what you want!" "I want to be the Vice Principal!" " Yeah!" " Yeah!" " Ow!" " Oh!" "Oh." "I will not laugh." "An outrage!"

"You don't forget how." "It's like riding a bike." "They've changed these!" "Fine, I forgot how to ride a bike, but I'm not gonna forget how to be a lawyer." "I have no choice." "You can be my lawyer, Nick." "I won't do it." "I value myself too great for that." "If you want me to be your lawyer, if you want to win... you must start with the word, "please."" "And I'll need a symbolic $5 retainer." " Four dollars." " Let's do it." "JESS:" "Dr. Foster, I am young, I'm energetic... and I think it's about time you take advantage of me."
