• Miss Carbunkle : [hearing the class chant "No more snow!" repeatedly during Charles's oral report about snow except Holly]  Hey, please! Settle down now! Where do you think you are, MTV?

  [going to Charles] 

  Miss Carbunkle : Charles, have you finished?

  Charles : Yes, Miss Carbunkle.

  Miss Carbunkle : Fabulous. Let's go, Holly, bring on the bird!

  [sees Holly is gone] 

  Miss Carbunkle : Holly?

• Narrator : Holly's plan seemed to flow without a hitch until...

  Miss Carbunkle : [seeing Holly's turkey drumstick sticking out from her desk]  Holly, what is that sticking out of your desk?

  Holly : It's - just my lunch. Turkey.

  Miss Carbunkle : Don't you think you should cook it first?

  [the rest of the class laughs except Charles; Miss Carbunkle silences them] 

  Miss Carbunkle : That's enough! Young lady, a school desk is no place for *poultry*, unless you choose to present it as a science project.

  Holly : I do.

  Miss Carbunkle : Well, then you'll have to wait until Charles is finished. Continue, Charles!

• Holly : [Holly is chasing her hat down the street, not watching where she's going, she ends up literally running into her teacher Miss Carbunkle]  Oh! I'm sorry, I..uh--Miss Carbunkle!

  Miss Carbunkle : [Scolding]  Is THIS how you spend your day off, young lady? Organizing a game of Tackle the Teacher?

  Holly : No. You see, I was practicing...

  Miss Carbunkle : Why don't you save your story for tomorrow's composition? Right now, Miss Carbunkle has a sidewalk to plow.

  [starts shoveling snow into a pile] 

  Miss Carbunkle : Before you know it this darn snow turns into slush, and where there's slush there's ice, and where there's ice, there's broken hips, and where there's broken hips, there's substitute teachers!

  Holly : Miss Carbunkle, if you should see my hat...

  Miss Carbunkle : Not that I don't like the snow, just prefer it in its proper place, like on mountaintops, and poetry, and songs by Bing Crosby!

  Holly : Good bye, Miss Carbunkle!

  [walks away] 

  Miss Carbunkle : It's no winter wonderland when you're skidding into a telephone pole!
