Quotes 

• Emma Nelson : [after Rick gets a bucket of yellow paint and feathers dumped on him after Degrassi wins the quiz competition]  Rick! Rick, what happened, it only makes the people that did it look totally juvenile.

  Rick Murray : They ruined it, Emma. They're life ruiners. Everyone laughing.

  Emma Nelson : But nobody's ever gonna forget who won. Who is the smartest guy in the whole school in the whole city.

  [Rick grabs Emma and starts kissing her] 

  Emma Nelson : Rick! What are you doing? Let go!

  Rick Murray : I thought you loved me!

  Emma Nelson : I felt sorry for you. I pitied you. Get a clue!

• Emma Nelson : [to Rick and Toby]  Hey, guys. I made flashcards. You want me to quiz them by category or should I shuffle?

  Rick Murray : I'm quitting.

  Emma Nelson : Rick! The finals are tomorrow.

  Rick Murray : We have a new teammate, Jimmy Brooks, a.k.a. my daily tormenter.

  Toby Isaacs : I told you, man. Just go to Simpson. Just ask him for a re-think on his decision.

  Rick Murray : If Jimmy's booted, he'll know it's me.

  Emma Nelson : Jimmy and them. They don't like you 'cause they don't know you.

  Rick Murray : So?

  Emma Nelson : So you came back to Degrassi to show you changed, right? So work with Jimmy on the team. Show him you're not the guy he thinks you are.

  Rick Murray : Think they want to know who I am?

  [points to some notes left on his locker] 

  Rick Murray : They want to torture me.

  Emma Nelson : [rips the pieces of paper off Rick's locker]  Rick, we need you on the team, so you need to do something.
