‘Tornado Prom’

Season 4, Episode 15 -  Aired February 5, 2002

A tornado hits Point Place on the night of the Snow Prom, leaving most of the gang stuck in the school building.

Meanwhile, Bob and his girlfriend Joanne take shelter with Red and Kitty in the Formans' basement.

Quote from Hyde

[circle in Coach Ferguson's office:]
Coach Ferguson: Tornadoes get a bad rap, man. It's not like the Wizard of Oz. I mean, where are the midgets? I bet I could bench, like, 10 midgets.
Hyde: Hey, look at all the stuff you confiscated. Mine. Mine. Ooh, la, la. Mine now.
Jackie: Why am I not Snow Queen? For the last two weeks, I was nice to everybody. Well, maybe not the A.V. Club, but I mean, come on.
Kelso: Jackie, you can't just be nice for two weeks. You have to be nice all the time. Or very handsome. Oh, my banana nose! Oh. I thought this was gone forever. Ha. It's still funny!
Jackie: Maybe Donna was right. Maybe being popular isn't as important as being nice to people. I mean, I know that sounds wrong, but anything's possible.
Kelso: Hey, Jackie, whatever makes you feel better about being a loser. [Jackie sprays Kelso with a squirt gun] Hey, watch the banana nose!
Coach Ferguson: [chuckles] Hey, Hyde, when this is all over, you think we'll still be friends?
Hyde: Well, my head says no, but my heart says no. So, no. I wonder what Donna and Forman are doing right now.

Quote from Jackie

[Jackie's dream sequence:]
Jackie: Oh, Toto. Losing Snow Queen has left me searching for guidance. Surely, the Wizard of Oz can help.
Kelso: Oh, well- Jackie, why'd you make me the Scarecrow? He needs a brain.
Jackie: No. No, I made you the Scarecrow because you love chasing birds.
Kelso: I do love chasing birds.
Jackie: Okay.
Hyde: Is this some kind of joke, 'cause I'm not laughing. Kelso's the Scarecrow? [chuckles]
Jackie: Yeah.
Fez: Look, guys! I'm a bear.
Jackie: Fez, you're the Cowardly Lion.
Fez: But I want to be a bear.
Kelso: At least you got a brain.
Hyde: This sucks.
Jackie: Oh, will everyone just shut up? When it's your dream, you can be whatever you want.
Fez: I want to be a bear.
Donna: Jackie, what the hell?
Eric: [laughs] She totally made you a witch. That's so awesome!
Donna: She made you a flying monkey.
Eric: What? Oh, crap!
Donna: Let's kick her ass!
Hyde: Yeah.
Jackie: [screams] Miss Wizard, I'm confused. I lost Snow Queen. And now I'm wondering if titles and popularity aren't as important as being a good person.
Wizard: Well, how do you know when you're a good person? When everyone likes you, right? When you're popular. [Jackie gasps] And how do you know when you're popular?
Jackie: Oh, my God! When you win titles like Snow Queen! Winning titles and being a good person are the same thing.
Wizard: So you go after that title, child.
Jackie: Oh, I will, Miss Wizard. I will.
Wizard: And remember, if someone calls you shallow, they're just jealous. [echoes] Just jealous. Jealous. Jealous.

Quote from Fez

Fez: Ah, our own private stairwell. This is exactly how I pictured losing my virginity. Except it was on a bed of flowers and there were two of you.
Vice Principal Cole: Tornado passed through, is heading to Illinois. Kiss my ass, Chicago. [Fez takes his shirt off]
Rhonda: Oh, my God! We're- We're safe. Sex just doesn't seem important anymore.
Fez: I- I disagree. And- And here's why.
Rhonda: Let's go celebrate with everyone. [snorts]
Fez: [to the heavens] Oh, you can make a tornado, but you can't let me do it? Oh, you are not a just God!

Quote from Eric

Donna: This was fun. We haven't just hung out in, like, forever. Plus, you're, like, my hero. Most guys would not risk a tornado for an ex-girlfriend.
Eric: Yeah. [kisses Donna]
Donna: Wow.
Eric: Yeah, well, I just wanted to kiss you before you found out that I went to the dance, forgot you and I didn't know about the tornado. Okay, this was swell.
Donna: Wait, wait, wait. So, you forgot me?
Eric: Okay, you're mad.
Donna: Actually, no. I mean, if we were still dating, I'd be super pissed. But we're not, so it's kind of funny.
Eric: You know what? Let me buy you a burger.
Donna: I can't believe you totally snaked a kiss under false pretenses.
Eric: Yeah, I'm a little proud of that, yeah.

Quote from Donna

Donna: Hey, you know what? We should all go to Snow Prom together, in one car. All of us hanging out, laughing, driving. Whoo-hoo. Good times.
Eric: You need a ride, don't you?
Donna: I so do. Pick me up at the radio station.

Quote from Eric

Eric: It's weird. I feel like I'm forgetting something. I've got my watch, my wallet, my who-am-I-kidding condom.
Hyde: Yeah, sounds like you got everything, except for a tall redhead.
Eric: Yeah. What man doesn't love a tall red- Oh, my God, Donna! I forgot Donna.

Quote from Hyde

Coach Ferguson: Mr. Hyde? In school after hours? What, are you trying to establish an alibi?
Hyde: Coach Ferguson, shouldn't you be on the football field teaching boys to play with balls? Don't push my buttons, wiseacre. [Ferguson walks away] And there he goes. I think now is a good time to go fumigate his office.

Quote from Jackie

Vice Principal Cole: I have exciting news for you two. Michael, you have been elected Snow King.
Kelso: Yeah!
Vice Principal Cole: And, Jackie, you are the new Snow Queen runner-up.
Jackie: Oh, my God. This is the happiest day of my life! Wait, runner-up?! How could that be? There's been a mistake! It was fixed!
Vice Principal Cole: You poke me one more time, I'm gonna paddle you.
Kelso: That'd be hot.

Quote from Kelso

Jackie: Michael, this is my worst nightmare.
Kelso: A tornado is your worst nightmare? Mine's monsters.
Jackie: How could I be runner-up? If I'm not a rich, popular girl, I'm nothing. I'm like Donna.
Kelso: No, Jackie, you are the girlfriend to the Snow King. Now, as Snow King, I must lead my people to safety. All right, everyone! Everyone. Follow me. [opens closet door] Remain calm, people! These are just sports balls! Everyone grab a ball!

Quote from Hyde

Hyde: Oh, yeah.
Coach Ferguson: Busted, hophead.
