Seymour Skinner

Hmmm, Men, the room for me.

Nice prank, Simpson. I dare you to dump that bees' nest on those second grade babies.

Why would I want to?

Because I said "I dare you." Kearney, can you read it back?

[Reading] "Nice prank, Simpson. I dare you to dump that bees' nest on those second-grade babies.

Why would I want to?

Because I said 'I dare you.' Kearney, can you read it back?

[Reading] Nice prank, Simpson. I dare you to--"

The point is, Simpson, a dare has been placed on your nards.

My nards accept.

Oh! I finally caught one of Bart's school plays.

That's not Bart, that's Principal Skinner. Bart's sitting right next to you.

Yeah, now that I look closer, that guy couldn't fool anybody.

Skinner

Shut up, fatso.

[turns red with anger] Why you little… [furiously runs into the stage and angrily strangles Skinner, Martin and Wendell drags him off the stage]

Skinner

Now, remember to stay hydrated, and... [rattling noise is heard] AAH! Rattle snake! [it's shown that it's just Bart with a rattle; he laughs]

Hah! You fall for that every year, Seymour.

Skinner

In one year I didn't, and I was bitten by an actual rattle snake.

Yes, and if I recall, you took a sick day you did not have.

Skinner

But I was gonna lose my foot!

Of which you have two.

Skinner! When I say "drive us to Bolivia", that is your cue to start the damn car!

Skinner

I can't find the key.

[Chalmers points in Bart's direction]

Looking for something?

Skinner

Yes! My car key.

Does it look like this? [shows that he got Skinner's car key]

Skinner

Yes. Quite a bit.

He's got your key, Seymour.

There are two things you didn't count on: my dad getting a giant wedding cake, and my sister locking herself in the car.

Skinner

We planned for the wedding cake, we just didn't see the baby thing coming.

Well, you should've.

Skinner

How could I? She wasn't even born yet.

People have babies!

Edna, until the state disciplinary committee rules on your case, every work day you'll report to a school board holding facility. An educational limbo, as it were, where you are the unbaptized dead baby.

[Edna groans, looking disturbed]

Skinner

They never seem to like that analogy.

Actually, I do have a speech prepared.

Skinner

Excellent, Lisa. Freeplay cancelled.

CChildren

Aww.

No one cancels my freeplay.

[Bart breaks Milhouse's glasses]

Sorry, man.

It's OK, thanks for making me part of the revolution.

[After Skinner has fallen for Bart's latest prank]

SCSuperintendant Chalmers

I'd say you're dumb as a post, but at least you can put a sign on a post that says, "Fresh strawberries-- one mile." You are a nitwit in an ill-fitting suit.

PSPrincipal Skinner

[quietly] I'll have you know I'm lop-shouldered.

I'm sorry, what did you say?

SSkinner

[angry] I said, I'm lop-shouldered...and I have been since I was hung by my armpits in a North Vietnamese prison!

[shocked by the outburst] I... I didn't know that.

SSkinner

Oh, the list of things you don't know could fill a week's worth of morning announcements, with enough left over for a send-home flyer!

There's no need for hyperbole, Seymour.

SSkinner

If you think it's so easy to handle Bart Simpson, why don't you do it yourself?! [The rest of the teaching staff cheers]

Traitor! How dare you betray the planet I got laid on?

There they are! Lets fry these calamari and serve them in a dipping sauce made from their own blood!

Skinner

But why?!

Well, it's not so bad.

Skinner

Well, it's a little.

Stop it! If you pull out these bricks, the whole school could collapse!

But there's a skunk in there.

[gasps] Scottish steak! [bursts into it, making the whole school collapse, except for the broom closet]

Skinner

You are going to rebuild on every brick of this school.
