Mr. Bender quotes from Zoey 101

Mr. Bender

Okay! Shut up. So, why are you guys fighting?

Chase

Uh... Uh... he said... he said I have bushy hair!

Mr. Bender

Now, Chase, your hair is unusually bushy. And Michael, the bushiness of his hair is none of your business.

Mr. Bender

[after hearing Zoey's computer IM alarm ring] Read the message.

Zoey

[reading] "Hey, Zo, do you think Mr. Bender knows his zipper's down?"

Chase

Whoa, Mr. Bender...you used to be a cheerleader?

Michael

Whoa. (all the students look at the book)

Mr. Bender

There were no girls here then. (they continue laughing)

Mr. Bender

Lola, what'd you bring? [Lola acts like she is crying] Oh my gosh, what's...the matter? What's wrong?

Lola

You're just gonna have to give me a zero for this project!

Mr. Bender

Why? You didn't pick an item?

Lola

No, I did. It was a locket that my grandmother gave me, before she...LEFT US! [she cries more]

Mr. Bender

Oh my gosh; I'm so sorry!

Lola

My dad tells me I'm just like her! So, I thought the locket would be a perfect thing to put in the time capsule! But...

Mr. Bender

But what?

Lola

I just can't! It's all I have left of her!

Mr. Bender

It's okay, it's okay...

Lola

I'm so sorry!

Mr. Bender

Look...you obviously gave the assignment a lot of thought, and that's the important thing.

Lola

Really?

Mr. Bender

Of course, of course. Don't worry, I'm gonna give you full credit for the assignment.

Lola

Thank you so much! [Zoey and Nicole look amazed as Lola walks up to them] Acting!
