Quotes 

• Chris : [to Caruso]  Call me Stymie, Rochester, Tootsie Roll, Inkwell. Come on, man!

  Joey Caruso : What are you doing?

  Narrator : Prompting an angry call from Bill Cosby.

• Joey Caruso : [to Chris]  What's wrong with you?

  Chris : You're what's wrong with me, walking around here like a sad Richie Cunningham.

• Chris : [to Caruso]  I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually feel bad for you. You used to run this school and now look at you. You're sad, pathetic and scared out of your mind. Shoot, if you were black, you'd be me.

  Joey Caruso : What do you want from me?

  Chris : You need to stand up to Yao.

  Joey Caruso : Are you crazy? He hit me in the eye with a Siberian Flying Tiger. I couldn't see straight for three days.

  Chris : When I first came to this school, you smacked me around, but I stood up to you and you smacked me around some more.

  Joey Caruso : So what's your point?

  Chris : You see, every superhero needs a villain. I mean, where would Superman be if it wasn't for Lex Luthor? He'd be at the Hall of Justice watching super TV. And the Fantastic Four, where would they be if it wasn't for Dr. Doom? At the circus. The reason you need to stand for yourself is because I need you. The school needs you. And unless you want to spend the rest of the school year slinking around and being scared to let me kick the crap out of you, you need to stand up for yourself.

  Joey Caruso : [as he comes out of the bathroom stall]  You really think I can beat him?

  Chris : I don't think so. I know so.
