Sue Quote #169
Quote from Sue in Back to Summer
Sue: Hi, Ms. Jacobs. I wanted to talk to you about-
Ms. Jacobs: Are you a new student?
Frankie: No. I'm Sue. Sue Heck. I bring the lunch money report in to you every morning from the main office. I say, "Hi, Ms. Jacobs. Everything's here," and then I give you a little wave.
Ms. Jacobs: Really? Huh.
Sue: So anyway, I wanted to talk to you about my perfect attendance award.
Ms. Jacobs: Oh, honey, I'm sorry, but no one's getting that perfect attendance award this year. Nobody earned it.
Sue: Yes, somebody earned it. I earned it. My attendance was perfect.
Ms. Jacobs: [types on computer] Oh, I see the problem. You were absent on October 13th. You're not gonna get anything at the ceremony, but you should still congratulate yourself.
Sue: I spend my whole life congratulating myself. I want other people to congratulate me.
Ms. Jacobs: Sorry. Next.
Sue: No one else is here.
Ms. Jacobs: I know. Nice meeting you.

Quote from Sue
Sue: Not so fast. Summer's not officially on till my graduation on Friday, when you watch me accept my special award, presented by the principal in front of everyone. [screams]
Frankie: Oh, honey. Well, you certainly earned it.
Frankie: [v.o.] Boy, did she earn it. Sue'd set her sights on the perfect attendance award years ago, and nothing was gonna make her miss a day of school.
[flashback to a red-nosed Sue sitting at her desk with bottles of cold medicine:]
Frankie: Here.
[flashback to Sue rushing to her locker to vomit]
[flashback to Sue sneezing as she climbs rope in gym class, causing her to crash to the floor]
Sue: I did it. I put myself and countless others at risk, but it was worth it!
Mike: We're very proud.
Quote from Axl
Axl: I hope you know you have sent me to the dumbest school in the world!
Mike: Seemed like a good fit.
Axl: So I didn't do my community service. You know, like, helping poor people or whatever. And if I don't get my 30 hours done by Friday, they're saying I'll flunk civics, and we'll have to pay for some stupid class I have to take in the summer!
Mike: And you're just telling us now? Why didn't you do the assignment?
Axl: Because... It shouldn't be an assignment! They're forcing me to help people against my will! I don't know. Doesn't that seem like communism or something? Did I use that right?
Mike: As much as I'd love to join in on your war on community service, you're doing it.
Axl: Ugh!
