Quote from Tim

Tim: This is stuff for your first day at school. A three-ring binder with your college sweetheart on it. [Jill laughs] Stop laughing, otherwise I won't give you a Tim Taylor "More Power" pencil sharpener.
Jill: Ooh.
Tim: Try it out.
Jill: Let me see this. [Jill sharpens a pencil down to a nub]
Tim: And my best piece... your remote-control lunchbox. Press this.
[After Jill presses a button, the top of the red toolbox which reads "School Time" flips open, and an apple pops out which Jill catches]

Quote from Tim

Jill: Tim, why did you give me these flowers? Was it so that I wouldn't be mad at you anymore?
Tim: Yes.
Jill: If you'd just given me the flowers to show me that you supported my idea of going back to school, I would have been so happy about that.
Tim: Isn't that amazing? That's exactly why I bought them. That's why I love our relationship. We know what each other's thinking.
Jill: Then you know what I'm thinking right now?
Tim: I think you're thinking that I wasted... $27.95.
