"Every kid in school had to write a list of five reasons Principal Shepherd is cool and then have their parents sign it." "What?" "That seems crazy." "One time, I saw him pee in a urinal with his hands on his hips." "That's pretty boss." "Why would the principal make all the students do that?" "I don't know." "I think he's going through a tough time." "He's in the middle of a bad divorce." "What?" "How do you know that?" "He's actually been pretty open about it."

"(drum breakdown from "In the Air Tonight" plays)" "BONNIE:" "That sounded really good." "JOE:" "Thanks, babe." "Hey, you know what that song's about?" "Phil Collins watching some guy watch another guy drown." "And then, the next night, he invited the watching guy to be in the front row of his concert so he could sing it right to him and they could arrest the guy!" "BONNIE:" "Really?" "Why wouldn't he have just helped the guy who was drowning?" "JOE:" "I don't know, I think he was on a bridge or something." "Like, he could see it, but he couldn't get there in time." "BONNIE:" "But he let a whole day pass?" "Why didn't he call the cops?" "JOE: 'Cause he was busy writing the song!" "BONNIE:" "Wait, if he just watched, doesn't that also make him a little guilty?" "JOE:" "Look, I'm not saying we wouldn't bring Phil Collins in for questioning." "BONNIE:" "I feel like maybe this story is bogus." "JOE:" "Hang on, let me check Snopes." "Yeah, none of that happened." "(groans)" "Hey." "What's up?" "(sighs) Well, I'm trying to work on a sequel to The Old Man and the Sea." "Are you, are you allowed to do that?" "But I can't get anything done." "It's so damn loud around here." "Oh, yeah, that's what Hemingway used to complain about." ""This Spanish Civil War is just too loud." "How am I supposed to get anything done?"" "No, I mean, it might sound silly, but I used to daydream that by now" "I'd have my own place by a lake somewhere, an oasis where I could go to write."

"I don't want it." "But I'm done with it." "Peter, shh." "I'll take it." "So, due to his erratic behavior, we have placed" "Principal Shepherd on indefinite paid leave." "Typically, Vice Principal McGuire would step in." "However, I was informed earlier today that she was found dead in her car." "(man coughs)" "Therefore, the board is seeking a parent volunteer to serve as interim principal until a permanent replacement can be found." "Hey, Lois, maybe I should do it." "I've always wanted a job where I can let my dandruff go wild." "What?" "No way." "I'm not having my dad be the principal." "How embarrassing!" "Yeah, no offense, Peter, but I don't know if you should be running a school." "What are you talking about?" "I'm a natural leader." "That's why I'm so good at leading Simon Says." "Simon says, "Leave the band."" "Yeah, I don't know." "Well, you know what?" "You guys are wrong." "And I'm gonna prove it to you." "Again, any volunteers?" "I'll be your new principal!" "Wonderful."

"Mom, why was this Listerine in the garbage?" "Oh, your father says he doesn't need it anymore now that he's a high school principal." "Oh, my God, he's not really doing that, is he?" "I'm only gonna get bullied worse now." "Hello, Breakfast Club." "(chuckles) As a principal, I like to start each morning with a reference from last century." "Dad, I don't want you to do this." "Too late." "I've already been practicing giving students awkward and uncoordinated high fives." "Chris, if I may?" "Yay!" "Two fingers and side-of-the-palm contact." "Perfect!" "All right, I got to get to work by 7:40, 'cause that's when high school starts for some reason." "See you at the way-too-early 10:40 lunch." "(groans)" "I feel you, Meg." "Shut up." "You shut up!" "(guests chattering)" "Wow, look at us." "Running a B and B." "Yes, so far, all the guests seem very happy." "Hi, we're checking out." "Just charge my card." "That's weird, that's the fifth couple to check out after only an hour." "Hi, we'd like a room, please." "Wait, I'm sorry, weren't you just here a moment ago with a different man-- oh, crap." "Stewie, we have a problem." "The only people checking in are here to have sex with prostitutes." "What?" "Nonsense." "Well, then why are they all signing the guest book and writing quaint things like," ""Railed Crystal good." Oh..." "Damn it, this is awful." "How could I have not noticed sooner?" "I mean, it's more obvious than when George Takei was in the closet." "Hey, George, how are you?" "I am a heterosexual." "I love vaginas." "(chewing noises)" "So, what are you doing tonight?" "Hopefully, choking on some lovely lady parts." "Oh, nummers." "All right, that sounds fun." "See you later." "I am a heterosexual." "Good morning, children." "I am your interim principal, Mr. Griffin." "And to show I'm a fun principal," "I'm gonna do the Ice Bucket Challenge." "Three years too late, but right on time for a principal." "And making no less sense than it did when it was current." "(kids laughing and cheering)" "You're welcome, person who's probably already dead." "But, hey, now I got something even more fun."

"Oh, my God, I'm so embarrassed." "What are you talking about?" "That jerk is finally getting what he deserves." "Yeah, Meg, now that your dad's the principal, you could finally have power over the bullies." "Now, you little punks get to class." "And if you see Miss Millikan, tell her I said," ""Hey, what's up?"" "Huh." "Maybe you're right." "Wow, Dad, that was really something." "Miss Millikan's just a friend." "Oh, I don't mean that." "I mean the way you handled those guys that were picking on me." "Really?" "I felt like I kind of lost my cool there." "Not at all." "That's what you've got to do more of." "You were like a real principal there." "I was?" "Yeah." "In fact, if you're gonna lead this school, you've got to know that kids need discipline." "Especially kids like them." "And their friends, Jeremy and Bridget." "Oh, really?" "Where might I find this Jeremy and Bridget?" "I don't know, study hall, second floor?" "(loud chatter)" "All right, listen up, maggots!" "Fun's over!" "There's gonna be some changes around here, and what better way to show you I'm serious than to smash a desk with a baseball bat?" "(grunts)" "(grunting)" "Oh!"

"She'll know what it means." "Let's go." "Keep it moving." "Get to class." "Hey, you." "You salute that flag when you walk by, kid." "Loads of people fought for that thing, including yours truly." "Y-You were in the service?" "I may have misunderstood what "yours truly" means." "Hey, Dad, listen." "The four of us got together last night, and we came up with a list of 11 students and two teachers that you need to do something about." "Maybe you should start with Mark Rutledge." "Why?" "What'd he do?" "He wouldn't kiss Ruth at the Sadie Hawkins dance, even though she bought him dinner before at Walt's Roast Beef." "Well, I don't see how that's got anything to do..." "And he called you fat." "Oh, I'm gonna squish him!" "That's right." "Don't take any crap from anyone." "Oh, I won't."
