Quotes 

• Miss Muriel P Finster : [speaking through a megaphone as all the students are inside for recess due to the rain]  Okay, listen up, you little hooligans. We're all going to be indoors for the duration of the storm, so you better get used to it. While inside, there are several rules you will abide by

  [reads list from a piece of paper] 

  Miss Muriel P Finster : there will be no running, jumping, climbing, whistling, throwing, catching, frolicking, skipping, singing, somersaulting, sliding tackling

  [inhales deeply] 

  Miss Muriel P Finster : juggling, arc welding, interpretive dancing, experimental film making, or having any fun of any kind. In fact if you can think of it, you probably can't do it. You may however play quietly. This box here is filled with games and puzzles for your amusement.

  [Randall pushes a box out that contains board games and puzzles] 

  Theodore J. 'T.J.' Detweiler : But, Ms. Finster, my dad played these games.

  Vince LaSalle : Yeah these puzzles are ancient. Half the pieces are missing.

  [Everyone starts complaining] 

  Miss Muriel P Finster : Quiet! Now if none of that suits you, Randall here has kindly volunteered to offer another form of entertainment. Show them, boy.

  Randall Weems : [unravels bingo game speaks through microphone]  Bingo, anyone?

  Vince LaSalle : Bingo? Puzzles? Oh, man, this is going to be a boring recess.
