(explaining Screech's version of what happened in the accident involving Lisa's mom's car) It's a terrible thing that happened to those monkeys though.

Go to class, learn something.
Scenes with Mr. Belding 21
I'm confused, sir. You know, maybe I'm just trying too hard to get girls to like me.
Hey, now I can identify with that. This may come as a surprise to you, but when I was your age, I wasn't... well, you know... the hunk I am now!
I can't believe this, sir! No, I thought you were Stud City!
Everybody thinks that!
Students are about to take midterm monitored by Mr. Belding, who was fooled by a fake call from Zack. Mr. Testaverde comes in the classroom dressed in overalls
Where's the flood?
George?! What are you doing here?
Well, my loyalty to the school wouldn't let me stay home in time of crisis. Besides, plumbing is my hobby. Where's the flood?
Flood? What flood?? And what happened to your laryngitis?!
Laryngitis? I don't have laryngitis! And what are you doing here?
I'm giving your midterm, see?
Mr. Belding shows questions to Mr. Testaverde
These are not the questions to my midterm.
These are the questions you called me with.
Richard, you called me.
No George, you called me.
Wait a minute, you called me George. You always call me George. The person who phoned me called me Mr Testevarde.
The person who phoned me called me Mr. Belding. But what kind of devious creature would make two fake phone calls?
Mr. Belding and Mr. Testaverde have their eyes on the chief suspect, Zack, who buries his head in his hands. The two men walk over to Zack's desk, where Mr. Testaverde places his plumber's helper atop Zack's head and forces him to stand erect and to make eye contact with Mr. Belding. Zack's cell phone rings, which is answered by Mr. Belding
Zack can't come to the phone right now. He's on his way to pick up his season tickets to detention. If you'd like to leave a message, please wait for the beep.
Beep.
Screech, your mother called and told me about lightning hitting you. Now, I just want to make sure you're doing alright. Tell me -
8:30 last night.
...when exactly were you struck by lightning? 8:30?
Yeah.
Are there any -
One.
...side effects? Did you say one?
Yeah, but it's a secret. I'm not supposed to tell anyone that I can see the future.
See the future? Screech, that's -
Preposterous?
Right.
Now, where was I?
You were about to say no one has the power to see the future.
Right, Screech, no one has the power to see the future!
Oops, I'll pick them up!
Pick what up? (knocks over pencil holder) Uh... Screech, I'm just curious. My mother-in-law is staying with us indefinitely. By any chance, can you tell me -
She'll be gone by Tuesday.
ALRIGHT!
Mr. Belding... quick! You gotta help me! My life is being threatened by one of your students!
Just one? You're losing your touch, Zack. Calm down. Just tell me who's threatening you.
Kelly "The Killer" Kapowski.
Kelly Kapowski?
Yes.
Excuse me for a minute.
[turns head to laugh]
[still snickering] What's she gonna do? Spike you to death with a volleyball?
Screech you can't elope!
Who are you calling cantaloupe, you melon head?!
Do you boys take these girls to be your school wives?
Oh, you bet!
I guess.
WHA-HOO!
That's what Mrs. Belding said when we got married. Girls?
I do.
I do.
I don't.
Mr. Belding, I want to give you a peace offering. Here is California Girls by the Beach Boys.
I already have that album, Zack!
Uh, this one has, uh, been remixed with...Dolby sound!
Well, OK, but you are still on the hook for meeting with your mother tomorrow.
Later when reciting subliminal messages
Zack{on tape}: Zack Morris is a good kid.
Zack{on tape}: Zack Morris is a great guy.
Zack{on tape}: Zack Morris is the son I've never had.
[while putting on buttoned sweater] I'm taking a different approach with you, Zack.
[observes Belding's sweater] So you're gonna be "Mr. Rogers"?
You're in the neighborhood.
I didn't start it; you started it when you planted poison ivy on our football field.
That was kind of rash, wasn't it?
[Zack and Mr. Belding face each other in an American Gladiators-style joust]
I've been waiting for this day, Morris. This one's for you and your sweet little girlfriend Kelly.
Ready?! Go!
Oh, hi, Mrs. Belding.
[turns around] My wife's here?
[Zack knocks him off with his pugil stick]
One second! A new record!
