"What spell has this elevated-IQ temptress girl cast that suddenly makes you wanna be in a musical?"

"Look, I just did it. Who cares?"

"Who cares? How about your most loyal best friend?"

"Quiet in here, Mr. Danforth."

"It's him Miss Falsaff, not me."

"Have you ever seen Michael Crawford on a cereal box?"

"Who's Michael Crawford?"

"Exactly my point. He was the Phantom of the Opera on Broadway. Now my mom has seen that musical 27 times, and put Michael Crawford's picture in our refrigerator. Yeah, not on it, in it. So my point is, if you play basketball, you're gonna end up on a cereal box. If you sing in musicals, you'll end up in my mom's refrigerator."

"Why would she put his picture in her refrigerator?"

"One of her crazy diet ideas. Look, I, I don't attempt to understand the female mind, Troy."

"It's frightening territory. How can you expect the rest of us to be focused on a game if you're off somewhere in leotards singing 'Twinkle Town'?

"No one said anything about leotards."

"Not yet, my friend, but just you wait. Look, we need you Captain. Big time."

"Mr. Danforth."

"I tried to tell him, Miss Falsaff. Really tried." Chad said as he look at Troy.
