Ava Quote #200
Ava: They're for my launch party. The future is eye masks.
Melissa: The future is gonna be unemployment if you don't quit scamming the school. I mean, at least replace the paper. I had to print a test for my kids for tomorrow.
Ava: All y'all do is complain. Damn! "Ava hogging the refrigerator. Ava used all the printer paper. Ava forgot to sign our paychecks last week."
Barbara: You forgot to sign our paychecks?!
Ava: Yes! Why do I have to say things twice? Look, you teachers only have one class to worry about. I have a whole school. Do you ever hear me complain?
Gregory: Literally all the time.
Ava: And I deserve to. My job is really hard. I don't see any of y'all trying to be principal! [Gregory looks to camera]

‘Sick Day’ Quotes
Quote from Ava
Gregory: Ava, the date is how they start every day. It's important. It's a process. There's a reason why we build a routine. Each step builds upon the last.
Ava: Like a Beyoncé playlist.
Gregory: Sure.
Ava: You wouldn't put "Love on Top" in front of "Church Girl." [chuckles]
Gregory: Look, we work really hard to build a curriculum, and I know it's boring, but tomorrow you can get right back to making TikToks or whatever else it is that you do. But today we need your help. They just need you for a few more hours... and for you to follow everything that's in that binder.
Ava: I hear what you're saying. I just have one question.
Gregory: Mm-hmm.
Ava: Does school end at 2:30 or 3:00?
Gregory: Let's be safe and say 3:00.
Quote from Ava
Melissa: Hey, Ava! Thanks for using all the printer paper to make your dumb fliers.
Ava: Don't thank me. Thank the trees that laid down their lives. They're the heroes.
Jacob: "Ava Cold-man's Pop Out Pop-Up: The Mask Stays On"?
Melissa: The hell even is this? A-Another pyramid scheme?
Ava: It's only a scheme if you're at the bottom of the pyramid, and obviously... I'm a top.
Quote from Mr. Johnson
Gregory: And you're just ditching Janine's class?
Ava: I'm not ditching. I'm pivoting. Besides, those kids are unhinged. I'm done with teaching. Time to throw in the towel.
Mr. Johnson: And I'm the towel. I'm your sub, Mr. Johnson. Have any of you ever flown into Denver Airport? Or have a fondness for lizards the size of humans? Anybody?
