John Putch: Bob Morton

Quotes 

• Barbara Cooper : [after snapping at Bob]  I'm sorry, Bob. I'm really in a bad mood lately. Unless you're wild and misbehaved, nobody pays any attention to you.

  Bob Morton : Yeah, I know what you mean. I feel that way at dinner lotsa times. My mother keeps forgetting to set a place for me.

  Barbara Cooper : I bet if we did something bad, people would notice us.

  Bob Morton : Yeah. Y'know, I think the worst thing I've done is, well, y'remember that dirty poem on Mrs Acker's blackboard, the one with all the four-letter words...

  Barbara Cooper : Don't tell me you wrote that.

  Bob Morton : Nope, but I read it - twice.

  Barbara Cooper : Bob, do you see? We're alike. We've both got the same, horrible image. We're nice.

  Bob Morton : Yeah. I'm supposed to be a teenager, and my mother trusts me. It's embarrassing.
