Mrs. Weir: So I hear something very exciting is happening this week at school.
Cindy: That's right. Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush is coming to our school to speak at an assembly in the cafeteria.
Harold Weir: You know, everyone's a Democrat until they get a little money. Then they come to their senses.
Ken: What, are the Blues Brothers doing a show in town tonight?
Daniel: No. George Bush is coming to speak to the school.
Nick: The porn star?
Ken: The vice president of the United States of America. George Bush.
Kowchevski: Alright you guys. Come on, beat it. There's no hanging out under the stairs.
Daniel: What? Since when?
Kowchevski: Since
the vice president is coming. Come on, give me a break. Secret Service wants all these areas cleared out.
Daniel: How are we ever going to plan our coup?
Bill: Sam, don't worry. It's just a game. I mean, I'm good at Mouse Trap, and you're really good at Kerplunk.
Sam: No. No no no, it's not that. It's just this thing with Cindy. She's kind of, she's kind of boring.
Bill: Really?
Sam: It's weird hanging out with her friends. I mean, all she ever wants to do is make out and stuff.
Neal: I'd kill to be that bored.
Bill: Maybe you should take her out on a date and do something that you want to do.
Sam: But what if she doesn't want to do what I want to do?
Bill: Then why are you going out with her?
Neal: Because she's a goddess! Am I the last same man on this godforsaken planet? Hey, pass her over here. I'd move to the mall if she wanted me to.
Lindsay: I'm a democrat.
Mr. Rosso: So?
Lindsay: So I wouldn't have voted for Reagan if I was old enough. Why would I want to talk to his lackey?
Daniel: Does that mean you're gay?
Ken: I don't know. Does it?
Daniel: I was joking.
Ken: Oh.
Sam: Just because a girl is pretty doesn't mean that she's cool.
Neal: Okay. Sam. First of all, of course it does.
Sam: We never have any fun together.
Ken: That's too bad, man. Really. My girlfriend's pretty cool when it comes to stuff like that.
Sam: God, then what's the problem?
Ken: I don't know.
Cindy: You're supposed to be nice! That's the only reason I'm going out with you in the first place.
Sam: Hey! I'm nice. I'm just not having any fun. Are you?
Lindsay: Mr. Vice President, my name is Lindsay Weir. My dad owns A-1 Sporting Goods on 16 Mile Road. My question is: Why did your staff reject my question? Are you afraid of an open discourse with the students?
