"Of course, towels have a thread count, Mister..." "Sheets N' Things." "What do you do?" "I read catalogues." "I know these things." "Anything under a 400 thread count, and I could break out in impetigo." "It's simple to understand." "William?" "Sandy?" "Hey." "Well, hello." "How are things?" "I hear you have taken over Glee Club." "Yeah." "I... hope you're not too upset." "Are you kidding?" "Getting out of that swirling eddy of despair:" "best thing that ever happened to me." "Don't get me wrong." "It wasn't easy at first being dismissed, and for what I was accused of." "My long-distance girlfriend in Cleveland nearly broke" "Oh, God, don't you love a good monkey?" "Took me weeks to get over my nervous breakdown." "Did they put you on medication?" "Better: medical marijuana." "It's genius." "I just tell my Dr. Feelgood" "I'm having trouble sleeping, and he gives me all of it I want." "I'm finding the whole system quite lucrative." "You're a drug dealer?" "Oh, yeah... make five times more than when I was a teacher." "I keep some for myself, and then I take money baths in the rest." "Who-who do you sell it to?" "You want in?" "Uh, no..." "I mean, I tried it once in college, but Terri and I are trying to get pregnant, so..." "Do my own packaging, and the first sample is free." "Sandy, no."

"Hey, Sue." "Can I have a sec?" "("A Fifth of Beethoven" begins playing)" "Sure, buddy." "Come on in." "Hey, Emma, you got a second?" "What is that, gum?" "So, you want to talk to my Cheerios about joining Glee Club?" "Well, I need more kids-- performers-- and all the best ones are in the Cheerios, so I figured some of them might want to double up." "Okay, so what you're doing right now is called blurring the lines." "High school is a caste system." "Kids fall into certain slots." "Your jocks and your popular kids up in the penthouse." "The invibles and the kids playing live-action out in the forest:" "bottom floor." "And... where do the Glee kids lie?" "Subbasement." "Sue's not wrong, but I don't think anything is set in stone." "I mean, you know, kids are going to do what they think is cool, which is not always who they are." "You just need to find a way to get them out of their boxes." "Well, how do I do that?" "They follow the leader." "You know, if you can get a couple of the popular kids to sign up, the rest will fall right in line." "I just want to talk to them." "I don't know, dude." "I can't see any of my guys wanting to join?" "Last month, they held down one of their teammates, shaved off his eyebrows just because he watched Grey's Anatomy." "Look, all I'm looking for is an introduction." "Fine." "You got to put a good word in for me with Emma." "There you go, Cinderella." "Thank you." "I have trouble with things like that, the, um... the... the messy things." "Yeah." "It's really nice how much you care about Glee, about the kids." "If you really care about these kids, you'll leave well enough alone." "Children like to know where they stand, so let your little Glee kids have their little club, but don't pretend that any of them are something they're not." "Circle up." "Mr. Schuester is going to talk to you." "If you don't listen, you do laps." "You mouth off, you do laps." "Got it?" "They're all yours, Will." "Thanks, Ken." "Hey, guys, how you doing?" "Uh, I think I recognize some of you from Spanish class, but, uh, I'm..." "I'm here today to talk to you about something different:music" "Glee Club needs guys." "I'm going to put the sign-up sheet at the door to the so if anyone wants to sign up, please..." "Thank you." "Dismissed." "Sorry about that." "It's okay." "You been sleeping okay?"

"* Even if I have to crawl upon your floor *" "* Come crashing through your door *" "* Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore. *" "What I did then... was the blackest moment of my life." "You want to tell me how long you've had a drug problem?" "I don't even know who the Chronic Lady is." "Look, if it were up to m we wouldn't have mandatory biweekly afternoon" "But I've never seen that before, Mr. Shue, I swear." "It's not mine-- I'll pee in a cup." "I'll pee." "Look, it... it wouldn't make any difference." "Possession is eight-tenths of the law." "I'm pretty sure that much pot is a felony." "Yeah." "Look, you'll get kicked out of school." "You'll lose your football scholarship." "Wait, I..." "I had a football scholarship?" "To... to where?" "You could land in prison, son." "Oh, my God." "Please, don't tell my mom." "Look, I see a lot of myself in you, Finn." "I know what it's like to struggle to make good life choices, and I don't want to see you throw away everything you have?" "I just expected more out of you, Finn." "That really got to me when Mr. Schuester said that, because every day of my life, I expect more out of myself." "See, I might look confident and everything, but I really struggle with the same thing others kids do:" "peer pressure, bacne." "I never knew my dad."
