Quotes 

• Riley Matthews : Hi!

  Mr. Turner : Hi.

  Riley Matthews : We love Harper. Do you understand, Uncle Jon?

  Principal Yancy : Real uncle, or you just call him that?

  Riley Matthews : He comes over like a million times...

  [turns to Turner] 

  Principal Yancy : I withdraw my complaint.

• Mr. Turner : Now, may I see what you've learned? Because that's what means everything.

  Farkle Minkus : Farkle goes first! Farkle always goes first!

  Mr. Turner : [to Cory]  Stuart Minkus' kid?

  Cory Matthews : Yeah.

  Mr. Turner : Super genius?

  Cory Matthews : Outer space.

  Mr. Turner : Real human boy?

  Cory Matthews : We're not sure yet.

• Mr. Turner : You know, Matthews, I know it was you who chose Harper for these kids. Is that because she reminded you of someone?

  Cory Matthews : No.

  Mr. Turner : Okay.

• Lucas Friar : I'll make the presentation.

  Mr. Turner : You like this teacher?

  Lucas Friar : I like both of these teachers.

  Mr. Turner : Are you familiar with the material?

  Lucas Friar : [walks towards the front of the class]  Me? No, I've... I never saw this thing before, I never saw this thing in my life... yeah, I read it, I read it actually a-a lot.

  [goes back to his seat] 

  Mr. Turner : Thanks for telling the truth.

  Lucas Friar : Yeah, I can't help myself.

• Topanga Matthews : You gave me an A-minus once.

  Cory Matthews : Topanga...

  Topanga Matthews : I want you to change it!

  Mr. Turner : ...Okay.

• Principal Yancy : So, I've learned, it's more difficult to get rid of two rabblerousers than I thought. Too bad for you, I've got a great relationship with the superintendent of schools. *chuckles* How's your relationship, Matthews?

  [Jonathan Turner enters the room] 

  Mr. Turner : Okay, so why do I have to do anything?

  Cory Matthews : Mr. Turner and I go back a bit.

  Mr. Turner : So, I hear you wanna dismiss a couple of educators, Yancy?

  Principal Yancy : She's here one day, and she's teaching comic books!

  Mr. Turner : Yeah? My first day I taught the X-Men.

  Principal Yancy : [laughs]  Th-that's funny!

  [realizes Turner is serious] 

  Principal Yancy : Oh no!

  Mr. Turner : Now, why would I do that, I wonder? Matthews?

  Cory Matthews : Well, you took characters we already loved to show us that good and evil wasn't so black and white.

  Mr. Turner : How come?

  Cory Matthews : So we'd understand it better when you taught us real books!

  Mr. Turner : Cory, you were listening!

  Cory Matthews : How could I not? I mean, you wore a leather jacket to work everyday. You taught comic books, and you rode to work on a motorcycle.

  Mr. Turner : Right up to the day the bike and I both got totaled. But, things happen for a reason. I married my nurse.

  Principal Yancy : Awww. You fell in love with her?

  Mr. Turner : Nah, in case it ever happens again.

  Mr. Turner : [to Cory]  There's a pretty cool bike parked next to your *sensible sedan* What, did you buy it from Feeny?

  Cory Matthews : Well, it only had 4 miles on it. The roll up windows are a real work out!

  Mr. Turner : Hey, Burgess. You be careful on that bike, okay?

  Harper Burgess : Thank you, sir.

• Auggie Matthews : He was one of your teachers, Mommy?

  Topanga Matthews : Yeah. Mr. Turner helped me learn everything I know.

  Auggie Matthews : She knows everything.

  Mr. Turner : I know.

  Auggie Matthews : Was my daddy a good student?

  Mr. Turner : He was a wonderful student.

  Topanga Matthews : Why would you lie to my kid?

  Mr. Turner : He tried his best.

  Topanga Matthews : Why would you lie to my kid?

  Mr. Turner : He was so bad, he became a teacher so he could go back to school again.

  Maya Hart : So... word has it, you took care of Shawn Hunter?

  Mr. Turner : Yeah, I did. His dad was a little off and on. No kid should have that.

  Maya Hart : Yeah... Did you care about him, though? I mean, you weren't his real father.

  Mr. Turner : No, I wasn't.

  Maya Hart : But was it possible for you to...

  Cory Matthews : Yes, Maya. I loved him like a son. I still do.

  Maya Hart : That's good.

  Riley Matthews : Dad?

  Cory Matthews : Yeah?

  Riley Matthews : Thank you for being a good teacher.

  Maya Hart : Yeah, thanks.

  Cory Matthews : Boy, there's nothing better than hearing that from your students.

  [Topanga looks at Cory and then at Turner] 

  Cory Matthews : Mr. Turner...

  Topanga Matthews : Thank you for being a good teacher.

  Cory Matthews : Yeah, thanks.

• Mr. Turner : Look, Yancy, I'll observe Harper's class. I'll make my decision on her. I already made my decision on Matthews long ago.

  [Yancy looks confused] 

  Mr. Turner : I hired him, you know.

  [surprised] 

  Principal Yancy : I... did not know that. I withdraw my... objection.

  Mr. Turner : Too late for that! Too important. What a kid is taught, is what a kid becomes. That's the job we have. You ask me to see how it's being done, and I will.
