Matthew Baskin: You in court today? Ronnie Cooke: High school. Matthew: What? Ronnie: I agreed to talk to some high school kids about the wonderful practice of law. Matthew: What're you gonna tell 'em? Ronnie [sighs]: I don't know. Don't do drugs; listen to your parents. [Scene cuts to Harry and Ronnie talking at Winslow] Harry: Most of them are drug-free. Some don't have parents. Scott [approaching Harry and Ronnie in the hallway]: Oh, Mr. Senate, I'm told that- [to Ronnie] Hello! [Continuing, to Harry] I'm told you are bringing your guest instructor to the dungeon. You know that- [To Ronnie] Hello! [Continuing, to Harry] You know you're supposed to get my approval ahead of time. [To Ronnie] Hello! Harry [introducing]: Um, Scott Guber - Ronnie Cooke, guest instructor. You approve. Good, we're late. Scott: I just need a crown adjusted; it's giving me a toothache. Louisa [with dread]: Scott Guber with a toothache... Ronnie [Talking to Harry's dungeon kids about lawyers' salaries]: ...small private practice, there are some lawyers making less than [catching herself halfway through the word] teachers. [To Harry] sorry. Marla [Responding with frustration to Courtney Schaffer who asked Marla to sponsor their club]: ...so don't you be calling me fat! [Girls leave, scared, and Marla sees Steven, who had evidently seen the whole thing] Marla: What are you looking at? Steven: Do you think, perhaps, there's another way you could've handled that? Harry [addressing the two who began fighting in the middle of class]: You know what guys; if you don't want to talk we can just sit here all day. I like sitting, personally. How about you, Ronnie? Ronnie [matter-of-factly]: Love it! Steven [in his office, in reference to Harry encouraging the two students to engage in a fight]: I don't even know where to begin on this one. Harry: Can I start? Scott [abruptly]: No! [Steven shoots Scott a questioning look] Scott: Well why should he get to start? Steven: What are you looking to get fired? Harvey: Is this about me calling one of my students a dick? Steven [matter-of-factly]: Yes, Harvey, this would be about that! Steven [in his office]: What's your relationship with Harry? Ronnie: What, are you prying or getting ready to ask me out? Ronnie: ...I defend that decision, yes. [To Scott, in mockery] Hello! Harry [In reference to his judgment about letting the two kids fight]: You think I was wrong? Ronnie [sarcastically]: Actually, I think you were right. Hooray for coincidences! Harry [to Ronnie]: Hey, Lawyer girl!... Louisa: A couple of parents have called in, complaining about Lipshultz. Steven [facetiously]: Only a couple? Louisa: They want his mouth washed out with soap. Steven [facetiously]: That might not be a bad idea. Ronnie [Talking about the two boys who were the ones in the fight who Harry just took out to dinner]: I wouldn't say they left as best friends. Harry: They didn't kill each other. [Sarcastically]Hooray for coincidences! Ronnie: You used to laugh all the time! Harry: Well, the world used to be a funnier place. Danny Hanson [In reference to Marilyn's continual suspicions about Jeremy and Mrs. Peters]: What are you, crazy? Marilyn: No, I'm not crazy! [Later in the conversation] Marilyn: I'm not crazy! Danny: Well did you talk to the police? Marilyn: Last spring. Danny: And they said? Marilyn: That I was crazy. But I'm not! Danny: Under the theory that he might have killed her, do you think it's wise for us to be entering his house? Marilyn: He's not going to do anything to us. Danny [sarcastically]: Why not? He's too reasonable? Scott [Talking about Mrs. Peters]: Did she seem normal to you? Danny: Normal?! Who bakes oatmeal cookies at night with a nub? Scott [In reference to Mrs. Peters, who has just left the office]: She's weird! Steven [sarcastically]: What tells you that? |
