Quote from Sam in Teacher's Pet

Sam: I can't do that, Diane. I'm not prepared to take the exam.
Diane: Well, Coach will help you. Oh, Sam, you started out with such noble intentions. I hate to see you end up like this.
Sam: Yeah, I know you're right. Well, maybe, right after I take the exam, then I'll call her. [Diane picks up the phone] Oh, Come on... Maybe with Coach's help, I can get by. [on the phone] Hello, Miss Purdy? It's little Sammy Malone from the third row. Yeah, listen, Alana, about school, I had this crazy thought. I'm even embarrassed to mention it.

Uh, yeah, I'm naked, too.
Diane: Sounds like we're ready for the class photo.
Sam: No, there's no one here. It was an insect, but I killed it. Listen, I'm serious about this. I would like my grade to be based on my knowledge of geography. No, I mean it. Did I say something funny? Yeah, well, when you see the results of my tests, you're going to be laughing out the other side of your hemisphere. If you'll excuse me, I've got some studying to do. Whoa, is there anything in particular I should cram? All right, okay, but just remember, I gave you that one as a going-away present. [hangs up] Boy, that lady has got a mean mouth on her for a 73-year-old. [off Diane's look] I was joking, I was joking!
