"That's just 'cause your mom's the lunch lady." "Your mom is Gross Edna?" "[ExcIaiming disgustedIy]" "I mean, cool." "You bet it's cool." "That's why I'm spending the day with Hyde and his mom." "Right?" "Eric, I need you in the garage." "Okay." "Look, I'II be right back." "You can explain exactly what you did to this car." "Okay." "Look, I'II see you tomorrow."

"I recognize you from all the pictures." "Your face has cleared up real nice." "Thanks for noticing that." "[Eric clears throat]" "You know, your mom does the work of five nurses." "This place would fall apart without her." "And she's so funny!" "Yeah, she is." "Wait, no, she's not." "Oh, yeah." "And she draws these funny cartoons." "See?" "Now, I warn you, it's a little racy, but" "KITTY:" "Oh, honey, you don't need to see that." "It's just, a certain body part... has been shoved up another body part for comic effect." "So have you met everybody?" "Nurse Forman, I just talked to the lab." "Why didn't you bring down that blood sample?" "Because you didn't give it to me?" "I most certainly did."

"Shut up." "I am so excited to be in the food service industry." "May I cut the cheese?" "Is he kidding?" "We can never tell." "Knock yourself out." "But if you cut off a finger, you're out of here." "EDNA:" "Steven, you can start by slicing pizza." "No." "I'm here as an observer." "A fly on the wall." "One of many." "What a surprise." "Lazy, just like your father." "No, actually, I'm lazy in a way that's entirely my own." "You two are hilarious." "Here, put these on." "I'm not wearing these." "Crap, sorry, don't blame me." "It's the stupid...."

"I'm a senior executive, statistical analysis technician." "You're a senior execu-what?" "In plain english..." "I concatenate diverse statistical information... to maximize the potential utilization of data." "So... you give people data?" "[Laughs]" "You know, a Iot of people think that." "No." "My job's not about output, it's about throughput." "So you throughput data?" "Now you've lost me, son." "Listen, michael... you know the eight-tracks you love so much?" "KELSO:" "You make them?" "JOHN:" "No." "But because of us, other people who make them... are able to make them better." "So you fix stuff?" "You could say that." "But I wouldn't." "[Upbeat rock instrumental music]" "You picked a good day to do this, Donna." "We're starting a three-day promotional sale." "You'II finally get to see why they call me Bargain Bob." "Yeah, Dad, 'cause that's been a real stumper." "[Laughing]" "You're such a cutie." "You keep your eyes peeled and your pencil sharp... because you're gonna learn how a serious businessman operates." "Good, the clowns are here." "hello, Mr. Forman, what are you doing home?" "That's right, you're only working part-time." "If it makes you feel any better, my dad feels really, really sorry for you." "Aren't you supposed to be at Career Day?" "No, I'm a sophomore." "I'm surprised you didn't know that about me." "Right." "My mistake." "Listen, while you're here, why don't you hold this flashlight... on that carburetor there." "Like this?" "[Dramatic instrumental music]" "My God." "One of you is not useless." "ANNOUNCER:" "A world of careers is waiting for you." "Talk to your guidance counselor today." "These people are ready for the jobs of tomorrow." "Are you?" "Good morning!" "This is my son." "He's making my rounds with me." "You let me know if this gets to be too much for you." "Okay, Mom, I think that I can handle it...." "Good God!" "What is that?" "Remember this the next time you want a skateboard." "[Upbeat instrumental music]" "[Sighs]" "I have some bad news." "Oh." "I have some good news." "[Woman grunting]" "KITTY:" "Okay, now push!"

"And this... is after." "Okay." "So, you're responsible for this." "You can't credit me with that." "That's probably a statistical anomaly." "But you made the chart, right?" "I wish." "[Laughs]" "So do I." "[slow rock instrumental music]" "Okay, question number three:" ""Was the food service industry your first career choice?"" "Heck, no, Fez." "I always wanted to go into show biz." "In fact, I was in the Tommy BartIett water show... at the Wisconsin dells." "Yes, women waterskiing in bikinis." "Very erotic." "[Sighing] Anyway..." "I was the top girl on the pyramid... when they fired me for getting knocked up." "Let me finish this one for you, Edna." "Fez, this is the story where I ruin my mother's fabulous water skiing career." "Yeah, you did." "They said a pregnant girl on water skis would make the audience nervous." "Not to mention, you were probably hideousIy fat." "No." "I Iooked great." "I kept my weight down by smoking." "See, that's that maternal instinct kicking in again." "Yeah, you're damn right I'm maternal." "I raised you alone." "alone?" "hardly." "There was "uncle" Chet, and "uncle" Larry... and yeah, "uncle" hot tub Johnny." "I suppose I should've just become a nun when your father walked out on me." "hell, he must've been crazy to leave all this." "always a smart ass, Steven." "Just like your father." "You know what?" "One thing he did do right:" "He left!" "EDNA:" "AII right." "That's right, Steven, just walk." "Just like everyone else."

"A girl needs to know what to do in an emergency." "You know, I'm surprised your father hasn't taught you this already." "Yeah..." "Daddy works really hard, so he doesn't spend a Iot of time with me." "But he did promise me a Mustang for my birthday." "So I Iove him." "You know, Jackie, I've been a father a Iong time... so trust me when I tell you this." "The Mustang's front end is problematic." "Get yourself a Firebird." "AII right, Iet's start Mr. Harris on a full course of penicillin." "Doctor, you might want to consider erythromycin." "And why would I want to do that, nurse?" "It's just that, Mr. Harris is allergic to penicillin... and I thought erythromycin might make him a touch less dead." "I know that when I go to the hospital, I Iike to not die." "[Drum beats]" "Okay... do you have customers?" "No, they're more like clients." "But you have clients?" "Sort of." "And you provide them a product?" "JOHN:" "It's more like a service." "KELSO:" "A service?" "JOHN:" "Not" "To maximize the potential utilization of the data?" "If we did that, we'd go out of business." "[Door opening]" "[Sighing]" "Red." "Forman around?" "No, he's with his mom for Career Day." "Which is where you're supposed to be." "What's the deal?" "Man." "Edna's riding me again about being just like my dad." "So I just took off." "Didn't your dad...take off?" "Irony." "Far out." "Look, you and your mom have a bad history." "And neither of you... can nurture the other's self esteem... because you've both been damaged by past criticism and shame." "Are you okay?" "I'm working haIf-days, so I watch a Iot of Donahue." "Okay, I'm not sure, but I think I found the u-joint." "God bless you, Jackie." "Okay, I'm going back in." "[lively instrumental music]" "could someone help me get Mr. Anderson on the gurney, please?" "ERIC:" "I'II give you a hand, Mom." "KITTY:" "Okay." "[Man on PA system]" "So, what's wrong with him?" "He's dead." "Oh, my...." "What?" "Didn't we just see this guy a half an hour ago?" "Honey, he was dead then." "I didn't have the heart to tell you." "I'm so sorry you didn't get a chance to meet him." "Wait, Mr. Anderson?" "Isn't this the guy you always talked about at dinner?" "The guy whose daughter just got married?" "Yeah, he just showed me the pictures." "It was a beautiful wedding." "I'm gonna miss him." "So, okay, you grab that end, and let's get moving." "We have to serve dinner in 20 minutes." "[Drum beats]" "And then we look at the chi square here... apply the standard deviation here... and correlate the results with the actualization median here." "And that's what I do." "And I can't make it any clearer than that." "I'm just gonna say you're a farmer." "[whistling]" "[carnival instrumental music]" "Okay, next question:" ""What has this job taught you?"" "One thing I've learned:" "Midgets make money." "I don't know why, but people see a midget, they wanna buy a blender." "I guess it reminds them that life is short." "Write." "DONNA:" "Marketing is important." "Know your customer." "That's not what I said." "None of this is what I said." "Sure it is, Dad." "I mean, I just cleaned up the language a bit... to make you sound more dignified." "Dignified?" "What are you saying?" "You're embarrassed by me?" "What have I ever done that's embarrassing?" "Just look around." "BOB:" "AII right." "Let me tell you what I see." "You see clowns, I see your tuition at Harvard." "You see your dad as a ringmaster, I see you going to grad school." "You see a chimpanzee in a tutu." "Okay, that just makes me laugh." "The chimp is cute." "The point is, Donna, you're capable of great things." "And if this is what I have to do so you can achieve them... then that's what I'II do." "Dad." "I feel really bad." "Nobody feels really bad around Bargain Bob!" "unless you got bit by a monkey." "[ "Bad Blood"by neil Sedaka]" "[Singing along with stereo] Bad, bad, blood, blood is taking you for a ride the only good thing about bad blood is letting it slide" "Mom, how do you do this every day?"

"Throwing out the disgusting used meat." "No, sweetie, you've gotta toss that in the chill bucket." "The chill bucket?" "I thought that was the garbage." "No." "EDNA:" "Have you thrown a Iot in there?" "FEZ:" "Some." "Most things just break down in there." "It'II be fine." "Hi." "Steven, you came back." "You don't know what that means to me." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "Honey, could you clean up those pizza trays?" "EDNA:" "I'm gonna skip out early." "Guess what I did in the chill bucket?" "Go ahead, guess." "Steven, I'm sorry." "I'm not being a very good mom, am I?" "No." "AII right, I've got a better idea." "Let's do something together." "Come on, I'II buy you a beer." "A beer?" "Yeah, that actually sounds good."
