‘A Chorus Lie’

Season 3, Episode 2 -  Aired September 30, 2015

As Adam enters puberty, Beverly does everything in her power to help him through this awkward phase, including his crackling singing voice. So when Adam gets a lead role in the school musical, Beverly convinces Ms. Cinoman to have Adam lip sync - just like the musical group Milli Vanilli - while performing in "A Chorus Line." Meanwhile, Murray inspires Erica to go to the Homecoming Dance with JTP member Geoff Schwartz.

Quote from Barry

Barry: Which reminds me. Dan! We're hanging out after school.
Dan: I've got a dentist appointment, bro.
Barry: Cancel it! We're building something here.

Quote from Beverly

Adam: This recording is going to blow the fricking roof off this place.
Beverly: And so are you, with your own voices. Yes, they are creaking and cracking. And yes, your foreheads are very shiny. All right, and you take insanely long showers. But it doesn't matter, because you're all just as amazing as you always were.

Quote from Adam

Adam: I don't feel amazing.
Dave Kim: You? What's your problem?
Adam: Oh, you heard my voice.
Dave Kim: Who cares dude? I've got bacne. Crazy bacne.
Dave Sirota: So? I sweat constantly for no reason. I'm sweating right now and it's like 50 degrees in here.
Garry Ball: I've got a weird thing for Sally Jessy Raphael.
Beverly: See, none of you are alone. You're all going through something that everybody has to suffer through.

Quote from Murray

Murray: Hey, peanut. I heard about the kid with the hair. So, you're not going to the dance, huh?
Erica: Honestly, I hate dances. And the nice thing about being here alone is that there's no one here bothering me, acting like a moron. Oh my God, Barry's right. God, I'm just like you. Sorry.
Murray: I get it. But there's hope.
Erica: Why?
Murray: Well, things work out. I met your mom. She sees the best in everybody, even a grump like me. All I'm saying is, just give people a chance. Don't be a moron.

Quote from Lainey

Lainey: Come on, let us help you find someone. Go on, describe your perfect guy.
Erica: Well, he'd be a mysterious, handsome outsider with a trench coat, a sexy voice, and a thriving acting career where he plays the thinking girl's heart-throb.
Lainey: Dude, you're just describing Christian Slater. Seriously? You're a lost cause.

Quote from Barry

Adam: You sure about this? People are going to know I'm covering up a zit.
Barry: Don't worry, pal. I'll just tell everyone in school I pummelled your face.
Adam: You're a good brother.
Barry: The best.

Quote from Adam

Adam: I know in past years I was upset when you put me in the chorus, but I'm thinking this year it feels right.
Miss Cinoman: Done! You're in the chorus.
Adam: Oh, thank God.
Miss Cinoman: Chorus Line, which is a lead.
Adam: But I'm in the chorus.
Miss Cinoman: Line.
Adam: Oh, thank God.
Miss Cinoman: Which means you have a big solo.
Adam: But I'm in the chorus.
Miss Cinoman: Line!
Adam: But did you not hear the sounds I just made?
Miss Cinoman: Adam, every boy your age sounds like you. And honestly, I don't have that much to work with here. So I might as well just give the leads to the most enthusiastic kids.
Adam: Balls.
Miss Cinoman: Yep, balls.

Quote from Adam

Beverly: Point is. I understand you're putting together a cast for this year's musical, and it's presented some challenges.
Miss Cinoman: It's a real suck show. I mean, you're gonna be great.
Adam: I won't be, but that's sweet to say.

Quote from Lainey

Lainey: Erica, you know I love you, but you're kind of closed off and way too picky. I mean, stay away from Geoff, obviously, but you got to give someone a chance.

Quote from Adam

Beverly: There's my tiny snuggle angel.
Adam: Stop it. I'm not tiny. I'm not snuggly, or angel-y.
