Melissa Quote #56
Quote from Melissa in Ava vs. Superintendent
Melissa: I found a connection at the school board.
Barbara: Ooh, you got a guy there?
Melissa: No, you do. Delisha Sloss. She goes to your church. My guy says she's on the finance committee or something.
Barbara: I know her. One of our shadier members.
Melissa: Mm-hmm.
Barbara: But God's light finds even the shadows.
Melissa: Yeah, she's up to something. Being able to spot opps runs in the family. That's how we Schemmentis got so successful in... business.

‘Ava vs. Superintendent’ Quotes
Quote from Melissa
Janine: So we get the funding we need?
Superintendent Collins: No, of course not. As long as Ava's at Abbott and I'm the superintendent, you never will. She blackmailed me. It's kind of hard to get over being blackmailed.
Melissa: You know, he's not wrong. I haven't spoken to my blackmailer in two years. Do I miss my sister? Yeah, every day.

Barbara: Well, my suggestion to all of you is to enjoy your free periods while you can. Because music class will be going bye-bye-bye like Blackstreet Boyz II Men.
Janine: Mm, mnh, no. Wrong in like three ways.
Quote from Barbara
Barbara: I know we need the money. And I have applied for that Advancement Grant for 10 years now. I just don't want to compromise my morals to get it.
Jacob: Look, while I admire that you've applied years in a row, have you heard that saying about the definition of insanity?
Barbara: Have you ever heard the saying that I will pop you upside your head if you imply that I am insane?
