Brick Quote #282
Quote from Brick in The Concert
Brick: Dad. Can you sign this form for my teacher, Ms. Tibbits?
Mike: "Tibbits"? What happened to Mr. Wilkerson?
Brick: He's still at Occupy Indy. We have Ms. Tibbits now.
Mike: Let me see.
Brick: It's so I can do the spelling bee. I'm going all the way to nationals this year.
Frankie: Wow, you sound pretty confident. Are you sure you just don't want to take another family road trip?
Brick: No, I really want to win the spelling bee.
Mike: Okay, I'll sign this, but I want to make sure you're doing it for the right reasons: a big old trophy and the satisfaction of defeating your enemies.
Brick: Yep. Plus, I want the other kids to think I'm cool.
Mike: Well, spelling is certainly the way to go.

Quote from Brick
Mike: It's not exactly football, but there is a trophy involved, so I'm in. I'll get you ready, but I'm not going easy on you.
Brick: Bring it on.
Mike: And no whispering this time.
Brick: You got it, Kemo Sabe.
[Brick lowers his head and then develops a pained expression as he tries to avoid whispering. Eventually, he breathes a sigh of relief.]
Quote from Brick
Frankie: How can he be out? What word did he miss?
Mike: "Reindeer." Got a little ahead of yourself there, didn't you? Just couldn't wait to start dancing.
Frankie: Really, Brick? "Reindeer"?
Brick: I know. There's a trick. The first part is the opposite of what you would think. Then I overthought it and made both parts the opposite. I got the "rein", then messed up the "deer"!
Axl: You misspelled "reindeer"? R-e-i-n-d-e-e-r? You know there's a trick, right? Dude, even I know that. [Brick groans]
Mike: Okay, you know what, buddy? Shake it off. It happens sometimes. Take a day off, and we'll start training for next year.
Brick: There isn't gonna be a next year. It was humiliating and depressing and mortifying, all words, by the way, that I know how to spell! I'm never going back to that school.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: Ooh, I'm in. Two tickets, upper level... Bieber! [Sue screams] Two minutes to enter my info. Wait. What's this "security word" in that little box? And why is it all blurry and slanted like that?
Sue: Just type it.
Frankie: Oh, god. "Z-E-B-4-A"? Is that supposed to be "zebra"? What is with the "4"? That can't be right.
Sue: It's not a "4." It's a "6"... Or a capital "N." 60 seconds.
Frankie: Okay, okay, I'll ask for another word. Maybe it'll be easier to read. "Y-E..." Is that an "8" or a "B"?
Brick: [practicing spelling with Mike] B-L...
Frankie: "L"? It's not an "L." Hey, pipe down in there.
Mike: You pipe down.
Brick: You sure you're not getting a divorce?
Sue: Everyone's piping down right now! Mom, Bieber, go.
Frankie: Okay, okay, I'll try a new one. "A-R..." Mm, no, pass. "F-3..." Okay. No, pass.
Sue: Ten seconds!
Frankie: Ooh! Yes! I can read that one. "Sold out."
Sue: [screams] No! [cries]
