Scott: You're almost eighty years old, and I-I want to be sure you're okay. Harvey: Oh, yes, you're always looking out for me, Scott. I'm touched. Harvey: Is that it? Scott: That's all. You need some help remembering where the door is? Harry [to Tyronn]: Why were they shooting? Because you sing like Roberta Flack? Tina Knowles: First of all, you've got to be kidding! Second, you gotta be kidding! Scott: Do you know of any reason she would have claimed you did? Tina: She must be a liar! Lisa: Don't tell me what to do, Harry. Harry: It's Mr. Senate to you! Lisa: No, I think it's Harry. Harry: You're a student- Lisa [cutting him off]: Which gives me an excuse for all the stuff I pull. What's yours...Harry? Steven: I'm not taking her side! Tina: Then what are you doing? Steven: I'm covering my gigantic ass. Lisa: This makes you and I friends, Harry. When the teachers rear up, and say I should be transferred, and when they scream that I shouldn't be allowed to teach, I now have a friend. [Whispers]  One who's got Harper's ear. Scott: Lauren Davis is a truthful person. She's honest, she's- Steven: -Elegant, I know. Tyronn: I'll be, uh- Harry: Don't tell me where you're going. I don't want to know. Steven: How'd the interview go? Scott: It didn't. There was no interview. There's not even a North Hampton Symphony. I was the victim of somebody's practical joke. Steven: There's not even a real symphony? Scott: This is the work of Mr. Senate. [To Louisa]  Get Mr. Senate! Steven: Wait, so you just drove all the way out there and...Oh, my. Scott: You think it's funny, Steven? Steven: No, no. Scott: Then why are you smiling? Steven: I'm not smiling. Louisa: I am not smiling. Louisa [to Scott]: Would you like me to make a list of all the people who don't like you? Mr. Webb: Mr. Harper, Annie left East Boston High under circumstances: allegations that a teacher was fondling her. Steven: Oh. Mr. Webb: She's been in therapy. She's on her third counselor. She claimed the first two had touched her. Steven: Oh. Is there any possibility it could be true? Mr. Webb: Uh, she told us you touch her. Steven: Oh. Milton [to Scott]: Oh, congratulations! I hear you're becoming a conductor. That's really great. I hear North Hampton's really beautiful. Scott [about Milton, to Steven]: He's the one who sent me on that goose chase. He must have conspired with Harry Senate! Scott: Did you schedule your check-up? Harvey: What check-up? Scott: I asked you to see a doctor this morning. Did we forget that, Harvey? Harvey: But what if I did? Would a lousy memory make me mental? Steven: All right! Scott: As I said, I will make it an issue. Harvey: I called my doctor. He asked me the date; I got it right. He asked if I change my underwear; I told him every day. He asked if I ever drove an hour to stare at an empty lot under the delusion that I could conduct an orchestra. I said, "Do I really look that crazy?!" Scott: I've been played for a fool by Lipshultz! Steven [laughing]: We'll plan your revenge over dinner, all right? |
