- Coach Tugnut: [Louis arrives after bell rings] You're late, Stevens!
- Louis Stevens: Or is it possible that everyone else on Earth is early?
- Coach Tugnut: Oh, Stevens... You might wanna put some ice on those bruises.
- Louis Stevens: Sir, I... I don't have any bruises.
- Coach Tugnut: Not yet!
- Mr. Winnick: [Lenny lifts Louis and his desk up in the air] Mr. Cranepool, could you please put your classmate down? Gently.
- Louis Stevens: 'Gently' being the key word.
- Nelson Minkler: That was great, Ren, you nailed that dirtball Tugnut!
- Ren Stevens: Nelson, we're still on the air.
- Lenny Cranepool: Louis! I need to talk to you.
- Louis Stevens: Listen, if I offended you in any way, I am sorry. And in fact, I'd like to pre-apologize for anything I may do in the future.
- Alan Twitty: Hey, are you okay?
- Louis Stevens: Have you ever felt the numb pains of guilt? You know, the ones that make you feel like a terrible person who doesn't deserve to live.
- Alan Twitty: No.
- Louis Stevens: Me neither. But this is the closest I've ever been.
- Lenny Cranepool: "Emotional" by Lenny Cranepool. "I wish you could see beyond my sights, to the person that lives inside. There is someone that sees the real me. His name is Louis, and you see... He never judge or laugh or try to hide. He just treated me like any other guy. I owe a lot to this true friend. I hope our friendship never ends. It really hurts being left out. If you have any doubt, try being me for just one day. And I'm sure you'll agree when I say: that being feared cuts like a knife; but one good friend could change a life."
- Louis Stevens: [the new, huge, transfer student Lenny is protecting Louis because of an earlier good deed] Life is sweet, Twitty.
- Alan Twitty: You are right, man. Y'know, thanks to Lenny, we have all-day protection.
- Louis Stevens: I know, it's like the guy is one big deodorant stick, and suddenly we're smellin' pretty good, y'know.
- Lenny Cranepool: [Louis sees the new transfer student despondent in the hallway] Lenny,. don't think so hard. You'll pull a muscle.
