"Professor Whitman, he thinks he's in Dead Poets Society." "There's no tests, there's no work, it's just day seizing." "The deadline to enroll is tomorrow." "I suggest you all do it." "Well, some of us are here to actually learn things." "I'm in." "Me too, it sounds educational." "I'll do it, I love Robin Williams." "Abed?" "Not a fan." "In every movie, there's an authority figure that gets mad at him for making people laugh." "No, are you going to take the class?" "Oh, can't." "My dad will only pay for classes that will help me run the family restaurant." "It's been struggling since 2001, 9/11 was pretty much the 9/11 of the falafel business."

"Oh, maybe, I'm not." "Hi, Mr. Winger, I like to think that every life that passes through this class is changed." "But every year, there's always one cocky opportunist who's just here to coast and grab an easy A." "Oh, yeah." "His name is Pierce, I can talk to him for you." "It's actually you, Mr. Winger." "You have no intention of seizing the day." "What?" "Listen, l-- I have never lived until I met you." "I" " I love you." "There's one down, nine to go." "Not that I need the grade or even want it."

"I have to plan in advance how to prove that I live in the moment." "I'd rather take an actual class, but now it's too late to drop or add." "It is not fair how hard it is for you to cheat here." "Hah!" "Hey, how's it going?" "How's your film class, buddy?" "It's cool." "Our first assignment is a documentary." "They're like real movies but with ugly people." "I'm learning a lot." "That is so wonderful." "Some people don't like getting involved in others' lives." "I think it's great." "Hey, if you're making a documentary about Britta patting herself on the back, you're gonna need a backup battery." "Actually, I'm doing a movie about my dad." "That is brilliant." "How did he react to you signing up for the film class?" "That part hasn't happened yet." "Here he comes." "Hey, you want to get involved in my family's business?" "Holy war." "Where do I find Mr. Britta?" "I'm Mr. Britta." "That's right, I'm a woman with rights." "And you can see my whole face." "Oh." "I get it, because I'm Arab I must hate women." "Let me tell you something." "I love women." "But I'm getting a major B-word vibe from you." "Ow, I can't believe I missed out on getting involved in this." "You go host American Idol, and you stop messing with my son." "He is a special boy." "I raise him." "You don't." "Raising him means letting him follow dreams." "Dreams are for sleeping." "You don't know that." "It's clinically proven." "So is polio." "You lost me." "Abed wants to study film." "[SPEAKS in foreign LANGUAGE]" "What's he saying?" "He says we're leaving." "Tell him you wanna stay and study film." "I don't think I'm really in the scene." "See?" "It's hard to talk to him before, now we have this between us." "Let's go." "Hey." "Hey." "Don't touch me." "You" " You don't touch me." "Stop." "Sir, you have a right to your faith and your family's privacy but Abed is an adult and a U.S. citizen." "Right?" "Yeah." "And he has the right to stay." "Fine." "You want to raise him?" "You raise him, I'm out." "Wait, what?" "You know, I had a father like you." "And the day I finally cut myself loose is the day I finally started being happy."

"You know, there's books, there's meals, he's renting that camera." "He needs a little spending money." "Um" " All money is spending money." "Oh." "Um, Britta, it's amazing what you're doing for Abed." "I mean a lot of people talk a good game, but you, you follow through." "I love you." "Shirley, thank you." "Bet that doesn't happen to you a lot." "It happened yesterday." "Shirley's just doing her homework." "Hillary, thank you for getting people coffee." "I love you." "Abed, how's it going, buddy?" "Good, my film is coming together." "Cool tie, Jeff, are you wearing that because you're playing the role of my dad, or is it really Christmas?" "Definitely Christmas." "Is that a new camera?" "Yeah." "It's more expensive but it lets me adjust really specific settings that most people don't notice or think about." "Hi, I would like a latte, and Jeff, let me get you something." "I'm okay." "Oh, come on, I got you." "No, really, I don't need anything-- No, really." "You're insulting me." "Look at all this cash." "Okay." "I will get a small, black coffee." "Boo." "An ordinary coffee for an ordinary life." "[CHEERFULLY] Good morning, Professor Whitman." "Sorry, Mr. Winger, these won't cut it." "Shazbat." "WHlTMAN:" "I shall have..." "A birthday cake."

"I can help you with your image." "First, I'd lose the jacket, you look like a high school bitch." "But more importantly, it's your sneeze." "When I was a CEO, I had an array of masculine sneezes that asserted dominance." "Like the explosive shock-the-room-into-silence sneeze." "[SNEEZES THEN YELLS]" "[sniffs]" "Or, the draw them in sneeze, you know." "[PANTlNG]" "You know, maybe I wouldn't sneeze, because I'm in control." "You can even use a sneeze to drive home a point." "Like, I think the Cubs are gonna win it all this year." "[SNEEZES THEN sniffs]" "What do you think?" "Tell me more." "It's show time." "[§§§]" "Hey, everybody, good morning." "Good morning, sir."

"Will you look at the amount of work that I'm putting into this?" "I mean, throw me a bone." "Had I not already cried at the sunrise this morning," "I would be weeping right now." "What does that mean?" "What do you mean, Jeff?" "What does your life mean?" "How long does it take you in the morning to make it look like you have bed-head?" "How many sweatpants- sports jacket combos did you try before you found the one that said, "l don't care?"" "Seize the day, Jeff." "For real." "Go running naked in a hail storm." "Kiss a girl in the middle of the day." "Fly a kite, but do it for yourself." "Or you won't just fail my class, you'll fail life." "[§§§]" "Thank you." "That guy's really got your number." "Drop the flower." "I need to talk to you about Abed." "I went by his film class today, he wasn't there, he's cutting." "I wanna know why he would do something like that." "Ask him." "Every time I try to ask him about it, he just keeps filming me and telling me that I'm playing the role of his mother." "Abed is not normal." "That's what you bought when you intentionally tangled yourself in his life." "Look, will you just-- Will you please talk to him?" "I've got problems of my own." "I'm out here trying to seize a day." "What in the hell?" "Is he gonna kill us?" "Thanks for the pizza, Abed, I was starving." "Yeah, it's nice, like a picnic." "Or a family dinner." "It's a study group and a pizza, let's not get carried away." "[BRlTTA CLEARS THROAT]" "[CLEARS THROAT]" "So, Abed." "How's film class?" "Good." "Yeah." "Did you go to class today?" "Not really." "Not really." "Well, Britta's paying for those classes, don't you think maybe you should go?" "I was shooting my movie." "Your movie is for class." "My movie's more important." "La-la-la." "Someone order seven lattes?" "I got that." "No, You don't got it." "I got it, Abed." "I got everything." "What is wrong with you, all I want to do is take care of you." "I know you're not stupid, are you doing this on purpose?" "Why won't you answer me?" "This is the scene where you leave." "You better believe it." "Britta." "What do you think, Dad?" "I think you are really weird, Abed." "And I think the wrong person just left." "[§§§]" "Perfect." "That's a wrap." "That guy was your dad?" "[DOOR OPENS]" "JEFF:" "Hey." "Hey." "You don't really have tickets for Ravi Shankar, do you." "I lied to get you here because it's time to communicate." "Communicate?" "Have you met Abed?" "It's not the two of you that need to talk." "Hey, wait a minute, where's Weezer?" "They're coming." "All right." "Now, the only reason why this whole mess got started is because both of you wanted the best for Abed." "And I think the lesson we can all take away from this is that everyone should always do whatever they want, and leave each other out of it." "Is that your take?" "Let me give you mine." "You and your pillow-lipped girlfriend got all up in my stuff because you wanted to be cowboys, and then you turned chicken when you found out it would take more than speeches and guided missiles." "Interesting, I hadn't seen the Iraq metaphor." "What Iraq metaphor?" "I'm talking about your speeches and her guided" "Got it." "The point is, is that Britta is sorry, right?" "Wrong." "Crap." "Abed may not be a great filmmaker but that doesn't mean that he wants to make falafel." "You need to let him make his own decisions." "Make his own decisions?" "Have you met Abed?" "You know who he is?" "You have no-- JEFF:" "Guys." "You're stupid." "I'm finished." "Britta, Jeff, Dad." "Dad." "[music PLAYS OVER COMPUTER]" "[children giggling]" "How's it going, buddy?"

"Did you do all of that to me on purpose?" "That's not a very nice way to treat your friends." "Well, Britta, it isn't called friend business, it's called show business." "He's smoking."
