Ava Quote #269
Quote from Ava in Valentine's Day
Ava: Zach, you can't be setting up all this in here! Somebody should really be monitoring what's allowed to go on at this campus.
Zach: Jacob has a free period, and I'm surprising him with a Valentine's Day lunch.
Ava: They get a free period? These teachers are lazy as hell! We were just about to dive into the rhetoric that MLK used in his "I Have a Dream" speech.
Zach: Wait. Are you in Jacob's class? As, like, a student?
Ava: No, I'm not a student, but thank you for noticing my youthful glow. Some people think I don't even have pores.

Quote from Ava
Ava: Internet sucks today, right? [laughs] Not one scandal? Do better, Twitter. [marker squeaking] You teenagers today are so boring paying all that attention.
Quote from Jacob
Jacob: Unlike Phase One Tony Stark, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King were both anti-capitalists. [Jacob nearly falls off his desk]
Student: You seem a little shaky, Mr. Hill. Are you good?
Jacob: Oh, yeah. I'm good. I am... totally fine.
[aside to camera:]
Jacob: Ava has been in my last three classes, okay? Either this is some time-intensive prank, or I am getting fired... for teaching Black history. [scoffs] I flew too close to the sun. Like an anti-racist Icarus.
Quote from Ava
Barbara: I mean, he absolutely likes you. Although I think that workplace romances are a terrible idea.
Ava: Yeah. That's why I never tried anything with him. Also, I have a boyfriend. But mostly Barb's reason.
Janine: So, wait. Everyone just... Just knows this?
Ava: Yeah, y'all the only two dummies that don't know that you like each other.
Janine: Whoa!
Barbara: But you do like him, right?
Ava: Despite you lack of swag, height, and good outfits, he thinks you're cute, but just don't do anything nasty on school grounds, because if I can't, then y'all can't.
