Episode Quotes
 
Narrator: And so Winnie and I had our one slow dance after all. But things wouldn't be the same between us. We were getting older. And whether we wanted it or not, (Camera slowly pulls up and back to include more couples dancing) the Lisa Berlin's and the Kirk McCray's were changing us by the minute. All we could do was close our eyes and wish that the slow song would never end.
 
Narrator: I had assumed my standard homeroom position -- drooling in the general direction of Lisa Berlini.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' song, "The Tears of A Clown," was played at the RFK Junior High dance. The song was recorded in 1966 and released in 1967. However, oddly enough, it did not become a worldwide hit until three years later
