Episode Quotes
 
Hamilton: Oh my God, I think I'm a gay.
 
Jake: Oh my God. I'm the man.
 
Will: You asked me to write an essay telling you what I have to say, and what I realized is that I've been ordered to listen from the moment I was born, but now I know it's my time to speak. What I figured out is that I've always seen myself as others have seen me. This poor kid, this smart kid, this dreamer who doesn't have a chance... so now that it's my time to speak, I just hope I have something to say.
 
Finn: Ever heard of Hobbes?
Will: As in 'Calvin and' or the philosopher?
 
Bella: What, you need directions? Oh, the way to Rawley, right? Let's see. It's right up the road. Just follow your nose. It smells just like money.
Scout: Okay. Actually ... I um ... I just wanted to pay for these.
