Quote from Gregory in Egg Drop

Janine: Jacob is right. That Mr. Morton's got a real attitude. He will not put on another egg drop event.
Gregory: You know you can do an egg drop event without him, right?
Janine: That's not the point. Look, I've faced so many Mr. Mortons and there are so many Mr. Mortons in this world, and I want my kids to face them now. And I want to shield them with the best defense... Positivity.
Gregory: Janine, your kids are lucky to have a teacher who believes in them as much as you do. But maybe sometimes, possibly, you could come at it with, like, so much positivity that it's... toxic. Mr. Morton's science is just too advanced for them. Those are the facts.
Janine: Ugh! I know. I spiraled.
Gregory: Happens to all of us, but it happens to you a lot, huh?
Janine: So now I have to tell my kids that I messed up and that they can't do anything they put their minds to?
Gregory: It's the truth, and the truth is science. Isn't it our job to tell them the truth? [Janine nods] That was, like, a serious question. I-I haven't been here very long, I don't know the answer to that. Should I be lying more?
