"It's like me, you know, with my grades," Brian starts up, "like when I—when I step outside myself kinda, and when I—when I look in at myself you know? And I see me and I don't like what I see, I really don't."
"Why do you hate yourself?" Claire wonders.
"Because I'm stupid, " he laughs dryly. "Because I'm failing shop. See we had this assignment, to make this ceramic elephant, and um...and we had eight weeks to do it and we're supposed to—and it was like a lamp—and when you pull the trunk the light was s'posed to go on. Mya light didn't go on, I got an F on it. Never got an F in my life. When I signed up, you know, for the course I mean. I thought I was playing it real smart, you know. 'Cause I thought, I'll take shop, it'll be such an easy way to maintain my grade point average."
" Why'd you'd think shop be easy?" Bender asks.
"Have you seen some of the dopes that take shop?"
"I take shop," he responds, "you must be a fuckin' idiot!"
"I'm a fuckin' idiot because I can't make a lamp?"
"No, you're a genius because you can't make a lamp."
"What do you know about Trigonometry?"
"I could care less about Trigonometry."
"Bender, did you know without Trigonometry there'd be no engineering?"
"Without lamps, there'd be no light!"
"Okay! Neither one of you better than the other!" Julian exclaims, ending the argument as Allison butts in.
"I can write with my toes! I can also eat, brush my teeth."
"With your toes?" Claire raises a brow.
"I can make spaghetti!" Brian adds in.
"What about you Andrew?" Claire wonders.
"I can, uh, tape all your buns together," he chuckles. "What about you, Julian?"
"Nah, I'd rather see Claire do something," Julian sidetracks, turning his eyes to the lady.
"I can't do anything."
"Everyone has something."
"There's one thing I can do, no forget it, it's way too embarrassing."
"You ever seen Wild Kingdom?" Bender wonders. " I mean that guy's been doing that show for thirty years."
"Okay, but you have to swear to God you won't laugh. I can't believe I'm actually doing this."
