Quote from Valentine's Day

Janine: I-I can't believe what I'm hearing. You know... 'Cause I-I-I can't like Gregory. 'Cause I like Maurice.
Barbara: Sweetheart, it is possible to like two people at the same time.
[aside to camera:]
Janine: This is wild. This cannot be a thing. You know, I am dating Gregory's friend Maurice, and Gregory's dating Amber. Plus, we work together. So, then what would happen? We see each other during the day and at night? We'd, you know, tell each other stuff and feel comfortable together? [chuckles] Like, share our deepest thoughts, and, you know... a life. It's gross, honestly. Just... blegh.

Quote from Mural Arts

Janine: There's no need to feel bad. Look, even without what, you know, happened, something still wasn't quite clicking with Maurice. I mean, if it was, then I wouldn't have... kissed you, right?
Gregory: Right.
Janine: I'm going to go to Bone Town with Mo, and then I'm going to break up with him.

Gregory: Oh, you mean the, um... The barbecue restaurant.

Switch Character

Quote from Pilot

Janine: Oh, Nina, excellent sentence structure. Let me see. "My favorite movie is Toy Story, and my favorite character is Woody." Good. Mine too. Well, more of a Buzz girl. I love his ambition. Right, guys?
Girl: Yeah.
Janine: Okay, let's see. Uh, Brittany. "My favorite movie is American Gangster. Yep. And my favorite character is Frank Lucas." Okay. That is a great sentence. And I will be having a third talk with your mom about what you're watching at home.

Quote from Light Bulb

Janine: Guys, the lights in the back hallway have been out for weeks.
Melissa: Thank you for the update.
Barbara: What are you wearing?
Janine: And we need to do something about it. Okay? Uh, uh, Melina, from your class... Yeah, she was afraid to come to school this morning. Said it looked like The Shining, and I don't even get how she knows that reference.
Melissa: She loves The Shining.
Jacob: It's a classic movie.

Quote from Fight

Janine: Whoa! You know what? That's the final straw. Do you two want to watch Toy Story tomorrow?
Joya: Which one? I can't do 3 again.
Janine: Alright, well, you're not gonna be watching any of them unless you guys find a way to settle this. If you're mature enough to make the graphic drawings, then you're mature enough to work this out. Find a solution or you'll be in the library for Movie Friday. And we are watching the first Toy Story. The third one makes me cry.

Quote from Pilot

Children: Good morning, Ms. Teagues!
Janine: You know, Ms. Howard, you remind me so much of my favorite teacher from the third grade, Ms. Elliot. She was well-dressed, good with kids, a wizard with a glue gun...
Barbara: Thank you, Janine. That is very kind of you.
Janine: Yeah, I-I wanted to be just like her, actually. I was, like, obsessed with her. She wrote in my report card note, "Needs friends her own age. A bit clingy." She was a hoot.
Barbara: Yes.
Janine: Anyway, hey, did you get my e-mail about the two of us hanging together after school or...
Barbara: No. It must have gone to spam.
Janine: It's so crazy how my e-mails do that with you and nobody else.
Barbara: Uh... Class, turn around.
Janine: Bye, Mom... I'm sorry. Ms. Howard. Bye, Ms. Howard.

Quote from Pilot

Janine: "Is your school sick? Try prescription rugs." [looks to camera] Classic.
