Lucy: I'm not failing history, I just got a 'D' on a midterm. The Colonel: Grab a sponge.
The Colonel: Aren't you gonna ask me why I'm here? Annie: I don't how you found out, but I know why you're here, you're here to help.
Classmate: I hope your sister's okay. Lucy: Thanks. Actually, I'm more worried about Simon. I think he's the one who gave her the idea to snort the mint.
Eric: I finished my sermon. Colonel: I knew you would. Eric: Gosh, you know....I've been dreading tomorrow all week, and now I can't wait.
Simon: So you're not punishing me? Eric: No, Simon. I'm not. Simon: How come? Eric: I don't know. I heard Ruthie scream and it scared me so badly, I forgot the need or the will to punish you. And just in case I haven't shown it this week...I do care more about my family than my work.
Ruthie: Mommy's upstairs yelling at Mary and Lucy, and I'm pretty sure the roast is burning. Colonel: Why do you think that? Ruthie: Because there's smoke coming out of the oven. Colonel: Ruthie, you get off the phone right now and go upstairs and get your mother. Right now, that's an order! Understand? Ruthie: Yes, sir! (hangs up) Colonel: Ruth! Pack my bags, I'm shipping out!
The Colonel: It's important to know when to be helpful and how to be helpful. When you don't know either one, it's important to be harmless. Matt: What? The Colonel: Lead, follow or get out of the way.
