Freddy Jones
- Dewey Finn: [on sticking it to "The Man"] Yes! But, you can't just say it, man. You've gotta feel it in your blood and guts! If you wanna rock, you gotta break the rules. You gotta get mad at the man! And right now, I'm the man. That's right, I'm the man, and who's got the guts to tell me off? Huh? Who's gonna tell me off?
- Freddy Jones: Shut the hell up, Schneebly!
- Dewey Finn: That's it Freddy, that's it! Who can top him?
- Alicia: Get outta here, stupid ass!
- Dewey Finn: Yes, Alicia!
- Summer Hathaway: You're a joke! You're the worst teacher I've ever had!
- Dewey Finn: Summer, that is great! I like the delivery because I felt your anger!
- Summer Hathaway: [proudly] Thank you.
- Lawrence: You're a fat loser and you have body odor.
- Dewey Finn: ...All right, all right! Now, is everybody nice and pissed off?
- Dewey Finn: [half asleep] How'd you guys get in there?
- Freddy Jones: Front door was open.
- Dewey Finn: Why aren't you guys at school?
- Lawrence: We did what you told us. We stuck it to the Man.
- Dewey Finn: Forget about everything I told you. Look, I'm a loser, okay? You listen to my advice, you'll end up like me with nothing.
- Freddy Jones: Come on, man, quit goofing around. This is serious business. We're on a mission. One great rock show could change the would. Look out the window.
- Dewey Finn: [looks outside to find the school bus with all the other kids calling for him to come down] No way... That is so punk rock...
- [Dewey is lounging at his desk]
- Michelle: Are you going to teach us anything? Or are we just going to sit here?
- Dewey Finn: [mumbles] Just do whatever you want.
- Summer Hathaway: I want to learn from my teacher.
- Dewey Finn: [loudly] Besides that! Freddy, what do you like to do?
- Freddy Jones: [drawing flames on the name tag on his desk] I dunno... burn stuff?
- Dewey Finn: [to the entire class] Look, just go out and have recess.
- Summer Hathaway: My parents don't spend $15,000 a year for recess.
- Summer Hathaway: [concerned] What's wrong?
- Dewey Finn: What's wrong, Summer? Didn't you hear? We lost!
- Freddy Jones: Hey, chill out, dude. Rock isn't about getting an A. The Sex Pistols never won anything.
- Lawrence: Don't let the Man get you down.
- Zack Mooneyham: [deeply agrees] Yeah I mean, dude, you gotta cheer up. We played a kick-ass show.
- Dewey Finn: We did, didn't we? It was unbelievable, wasn't it?
- Summer Hathaway: [deeply agrees] Yeah.
- Freddy Jones: I'm just saying, name two great chick drummers.
- Katie: Sheila E.? Meg White from the White Stripes?
- Freddy Jones: [winces] She can't drum!
- Katie: She's a better drummer than you! At least, she has rhythm.
- [Miss Mullins passes and realizes that Freddy has rolled up his sleeves and spiked his hair]
- Rosalie Mullins: Freddy! Where are your sleeves? And what have you done to your hair?
- Freddy Jones: It's called punk.
- Rosalie Mullins: Well, it's not school uniform.
- [She pulls his left sleeve down, and he turns away with a rebellious expression. Frankie, Michelle and Eleni have observed this]
- Frankie: Miss Mullins, you're the Man.
- Rosalie Mullins: Thank you, Frankie!
- [Frankie and the other students giggle behind her back]
- Freddy Jones: Um, are we going to be goofing off like this every day?
- Dewey Finn: Uh, we're not goofing off. We're creating musical fusion.
- Freddy Jones: Well, um, are we going to be creating musical fusion every day?
- Dewey Finn: Yeah, get used to it.
- [Freddy grins as he leaves]
- Dewey Finn: [to the class on his first day] All right, look, here's the deal. I've got a hangover. Who knows what that means?
- Frankie: Doesn't that mean you're drunk?
- Dewey Finn: No. It means I was drunk yesterday.
- Freddy Jones: It means you're an alcoholic.
- Dewey Finn: Wrong.
- Freddy Jones: You wouldn't come to work with a hangover unless you were an alcoholic. Dude, you got a disease!
- Dewey Finn: Mmm-hmm. What's your name?
- Freddy Jones: Freddy Jones.
- Dewey Finn: Mmm, Freddy Jones, shut up!
- [Freddy looks irritated as his classmates laugh]
- Freddy Jones: [quietly] Shut up.
- Dewey Finn: Point is, y'all can just chill today. We can start on this crap-ola tomorrow.
- Lawrence: [to Freddy] You're an idiot.
- Freddy Jones: Hey, shut up!
- Lawrence: No, you shut up!
- Freddy Jones: Hey, you wanna go?
- Tomika: Hey, if you touch him, I'll shove those sticks down your throat, got it?
- [Freddy retreats; Tomika turns to the class]
- Tomika: Mr. S was cool. We worked too long and hard not to play the show!
- Freddy Jones: Okay, so what are we supposed to do?
- Alicia: [stroking a stuffed toy Owl] I say we get out of here and play the damn show!
- Dewey Finn: Does anyone play drums?
- Freddy Jones: I play percussion.
- Frankie: Yeah, that's cause he couldn't play anything else!
- Freddy Jones: Shut up!
