Quote from Barbara

Mr. Johnson: Don't take it so hard. Everybody gets dumped. If it can happen to Michael B. Jordan, it can happen to you.
Barbara: Now, that white boy sure can act. Ooh! I love those Back to the Future movies.
Together: Michael J. Fox.
Barbara: Hmm?

Quote from Barbara

Barbara: Well, if they do go with a Black actor, I hope they go with that Mr. Brian Austin Green. I'm so proud of that young man and all of his success.
Gregory: Uh...
Janine: Tuh-tuh-tuh!
[aside to camera:]
Janine: So, there are a bunch of white celebrities who Barbara thinks are Black. Like, Brian Austin Green would be Brian Tyree Henry.
[flashback to Barbara greeting her class:]
Barbara: Ooh, I see you, little Carrie Underwood. Good morning.
[aside to camera:]
Jacob: Kerry Washington.
[flashback to Barbara and Melissa leaving the school:]
Barbara: I'm going straight home, put on a little Millie Bobby Brown.
[aside to camera:]
Melissa: Bobby Brown.
[flashback to Barbara walking in the hallway with Ava:]
Barbara: No one's done more for Black actors than Tommy Lee Jones.
[aside to camera:]
Ava: James Earl Jones.
[aside to camera:]
Janine: And we just let her keep thinking that. It's easier.

Quote from Barbara

Barbara: And if they go with a woman, you cannot go wrong with the splendid, the wonderful Michelle Williams. Mm-mm-mm! Now, that is one talented diva. Mm, yes. Mm-hmm.
Jacob: She is arguably the third best child of Destiny.
Barbara: And all the way to the Academy Awards from Dawson's Creek. Oh, yes, Michelle. Mm.
Janine: So close.

Quote from Mr. Johnson

Mr. Johnson: It's risky, but it could work. And you probably won't get your tires slashed. You ever heard of Martha and the Vandellas? Well, I dumped Martha, but I'm pretty sure the Vandellas vandalized my car.
Gregory: I would like to not have my tires slashed, so...

Quote from Jacob

Jacob: And it's been almost a year, okay? It is beyond time that they reboot Spider-Man again.
Janine: Yeah, you're right. I love it. But who can replace Tom Holland?
Melissa: I'll tell you who... That little magical cutie, that Harry Potter.
Gregory: Daniel Radcliffe?
Melissa: Yeah.
Gregory: He's already in a franchise. You can't just swing from franchise to franchise.
Jacob: Then why do I have to see Chris Pratt everywhere?
Janine: It's okay.

Quote from Ava

Ava: Well, y'all have fun. I'll be here at work, working. [off their looks] What? My followers aren't gonna influence themselves.

Quote from Melissa

Melissa: Yeah, you heard the baby shark. Keep it movin', and quit staring us down with that lazy eye.
Kristin Marie: Who you think you're talkin' to?
Melissa: A woman with Jersey mall hair and too much makeup. Now take that sfigato ass down the street.
Janine: Oh. Melissa! I don't even know what "sfigato" means and I know that was too much.
Jacob: It's a very small cup of coffee.
Melissa: That's not even close, and I can say whatever I want to my stupid sister.
Janine: Sister? As in the woman that works at the other school? You have the same mom? Y-Your sister?
Melissa: Yeah, yeah, good, you know what having a sister means. Glad you're making good use of that Penn education.
Janine: Wait.
Melissa: And, no, I'm not saying another word about this.

Quote from Ava

Ava: [aside to camera] I really killed that today. Kids happy, Janine quiet, Gregory fine. I feel like I got a real knack for this, like I could be president or maybe even mayor of a school. What would you call that?

Quote from Ava

Ava: No, I want a thicc Spider-Man, like 50 Cent. Should be Black anyways. Costume got a built-in durag.

Quote from Melissa

Gregory: Summer's supposed to be over. Are we sure this AC is on?
Jacob: Oh, it is on, but that thing is older than Mr. Johnson.
Melissa: Yeah, and they both have emphysema.
Gregory: This is last year's calendar.
Melissa: No! [Gregory pulls the calander down, revealing a patch of dusty exposed brick] [coughs]
Janine: And that is why we had that up there.
Melissa: Yeah, now put it back. It's a load-bearing calendar.
