    What do you mean 'what am I doing'? This is a ukelele. I'm telling you, everybody played a uke when I was a kid.



    Christine:
    Come on, Ross. Get with it man. Today's sounds are electronic. You know, guitar power?


    [the rest of the cast agrees]



    Ross:
    Oh, you mean like this?


    [Using the ukelele, he mimes playing an electric guitar for about 10 seconds, while the guitar solo break from Heart's 'Magic Man' is used. When he stops, he shakes his head]

    No sir.

    Listen. do you have a note from your father?

    Yeah.


    [singing loudly]

    MMMMIIIIII!

  • Valarie:
    [Valerie and Lance are sitting at the dining room table, Lance drinking a glass of scotch with the bottle next to him] Lance, I really think you're exaggerating. My mother doesn't hate you, dear.



    Lance:
    That's what you think.



    Valarie:
    Well Lance, if she hated you, she wouldn't have brought you that lovely bottle of scotch back from her trip to Inverness.



    Lance:
    Oh I admit that the bottle of scotch was very nice. I admit that, but it's what she brought Alasdair that proves she hates me!

    [At that, Alasdar comes into the room playing a set of bagpipes badly, then grabs Lance's glass of scotch and leaves] You know, you may have a point there, dear.

    Mr. Shidler:
    You know, sometimes, I wish I were like Beethoven.



    Brodie:
    Is that so you can write beautiful music for us to play?



    Mr. Shidler:
    No! Beethoven was deaf.

    Well I think that can be arrainged, sir.


    [They all start playing badly again, this time louder]

    [Sees Brodie come in wearing a baseball uniform, and carrying a violin on his shoulder as one would do a baseball bat] Hey Brodie, what's happening. You going to play baseball?

    Well, that's a drag. What are you going to do now?

    Compromise.


    [Throws a ball in the air, then bats it with the violin]

    Mr. Shidler:
    Lisa?

    Uh, air.



    Mr. Shidler:
    That's right. That's two. Uh, Christine?



    Christine:
    Um, fire!



    Mr. Shidler:
    Right. And now, Vanessa. Can you tell me what the fourth element is?



    Vanessa:
    Yeah, but I'm not going to.



    Mr. Shidler:
    Well, Vanessa, either you tell me what the fourth element is, or you tell me you don't know.



    Vanessa:
    Well, either way, I get something dumped on me.


    [Gives in]



    Vanessa:
    Okay, water.


    [And you know the rest]

    [Together] Aww, but Mother Nature?



    Mother Nature:
    [Still yelling] And don't talk with your mouths empty!



    Alasdair and Vanessa:
    [Together] We're sorry.



    Mother Nature:
    [Still yelling] And stop being so polite!

    So tell me Lisa, did you enjoy your trip to the Grand Canyon?

    Oh, really? Well that's nice. What made you think of me?



    Lisa:
    Well, you and the Grand Canyon are so very much alike. Shallow and dirty, and most of all, very very wide at the bottom.

  • Christine:
    You know Lisa, when you were talking about the Grand Canyon before?



    Lisa:
    Yeah?



    Christine:
    Well, you remind me of the Colorado River. That's the river that runs through the Grand Canyon.



    Lisa:
    Oh, you mean I'm miracle and romantic?



    Christine:

    What is this?



    Vanessa:
    It's my lucky bears foot. My dad got it for me on a hunting trip. It helps me win video games.



    Blip:
    Helps you win video games, eh? I'm soory kid, but you cannot come in here with that.



    Vanessa:
    Why not?



    Blip:
    Can't you read the sign?


    [Points to it]



    Blip:
    No 'bare' feet in the arcade.


    [Points towards the exit, and she leaves dejectedly]

  • Alasdair:
    Hay Vanessa?



    Vanessa:
    Yeah Alasdair?

    Vanessa:
    Yeah, my parent's Winnebago.



    Lisa:
    [Pops out of her locker] You know, how can you let Vanessa answer any more of these questions? Her jokes are terrible.



    Vanessa:
    I wouldn't talk, Lisa.

    [Pops out of her locker] That's all she can do.
