In the school where Dash goes...

Principal: I appreciate you coming down here, Mrs. Maslow.

Poppy Kiouloglou: What's this about? Has Ian done something wrong?

Bernie: He's a disruptive influence and he openly mocks me in front of the class.

Ian: He says.

Bernie: Look, I know it's you! He puts thumbtacks on my stool.

Poppy Kiouloglou: You saw him do this?

Bernie: Well...not really. No. Actually, not.

Poppy Kiouloglou: Oh, then how do you know it was him?

Bernie: I hid a camera. Yeah, and this time, I've got him. See? You see? You don't see it? He moves! Right there! Wait, wait! Right there! Right as I'm sitting down! I don't know how he does it, but there's no tack before he moves and after he moves, there's a tack. Coincidence? I think not!

Principal: Bernie...

Bernie: Don't ''Bernie'' me. (screaming) This little rat is guilty!

Principal: You and your son can go now, Mrs. Maslow. I'm sorry for the trouble.

Bernie: You're letting him go again? He's guilty! You can see it on his smug little face. Guilty, I say, guilty!

Poppy Kiouloglou: Ian, this is the third time this year you've been sent to the office. We need to find a better outlet. A more...constructive outlet.

Ian: Maybe I could, if you'd let me go out for sports.

Poppy Kiouloglou: Honey, you know why we can't do that.

Ian: I promise I'll slow up. I'll only be the best by a tiny bit.

Poppy Kiouloglou: Ian Joseph Maslow, you are an incredibly competitive boy. And a bit of a showoff. The last thing you need is temptation.

Ian: You always say, ''Do your best.'' But you don't really mean it. Why can't I do the best that I can do?

Poppy Kiouloglou: Right now, honey, the world just wants us to fit in, and to fit in, we just gotta be like everybody else.

Ian: Dad always said our powers were nothing to be ashamed of. Our powers made us special.

Poppy Kiouloglou: Everyone's special, Ian.

Ian: Which is another way of saying no one is.

In Violet's school...

Boy: Hey, Rydinger. Where you headed?

Girl: Hi, Tony.

Boy: Hey, Tony, can I carry your books?

Tony: That's kind of funny.

Boy 1: Hey, Tony, do you play football?

Boy 2: Tony, I thought we were gonna go swimming.

Samantha: He looked at me.

(Car horn honking)

Ian: Come on, Samantha! (Ian screams).

James Maslow: (muttering) Darn kids. Sitting on the driveway...

James Maslow: Oh, great.

(unintelligible muttering)
