"Listen, jerk wad." "I'm sorry, that got heated." "Greendale needs a win." "The best compliment our sports program gets is that our basketball team is really gay." "So, what's it gonna take?" "A plum parking space?" "Free meals?" "A night of companionship, if you know what I mean?" "I'll do it for the parking space." "And if you promise not to tell me what you mean." "[§§§]" "All right." "Yeah." "Pierce, thank you." "I really appreciate you helping me out." "And I appreciate the opportunity." "You know, sometimes I think people don't take me seriously." "BRlTTA:" "What are you gonna do?" "Wave a pocket watch in front of my face and tell me I'm getting very sleepy." "[CHUCKLES]" "Just checking the time."

"May I?" "Okay." "Yeah." "Jeff acts like nothing affects him, but things bother him more than he lets on." "Hey, I'm top of the class." "[screaming]" "He's also very vain." "Pfft!" "Ridiculous." "ALL:" "Ohh." "Why am I crying?" "Will I listen to "Come Sail Away" by Styx again?" "Don't worry, Troy, it's just a movie." "I can't predict the future." "I hurt my leg." "Ah!"
