Quotes 

• Finn Hudson : It's not too late.

  Dave Karofsky : To commit social suicide? How the hell are you gonna play with five guys, huh?

  [seeing Rachel, Mercedes, Tina, and Lauren suited up] 

  Dave Karofsky : You have got to be kidding me.

  Azimio : What the hell are they doing?

  Finn Hudson : What you don't have the balls to do.

• Finn Hudson : There's no way the Glee Club's gonna let you join permanently, until you clean things up with Kurt. So I was thinking maybe we could go together to Dalton and apologize to him, if you...

  Dave Karofsky : Who-who said I want to join the Glee Club permanently?

  Finn Hudson : I just thought after this week and-and... the way we won the game and the way you came out to dance...

  Dave Karofsky : What do you think? We all dance around together and win a football game and everything's gonna change? Glee Club's gonna be cool and we're all gonna sing hippie peace songs every morning?

  Finn Hudson : Maybe. I-I don't know. I-It's a start.

  Dave Karofsky : No, dude, it's a finish. Okay? This is high school. People's memories for good stuff lasts about as long as their Facebook status.

  Finn Hudson : But we've got a chance to really change things here.

  Dave Karofsky : I just won the conference championship. I'm on top. Why would I want to change things?

• Finn Hudson : Dude, relax. This is gonna be fine

  Dave Karofsky : Yeah, of course it is. 'Cause I'm quitting Glee Club.

  Shannon Beiste : [entering]  No, you're not. Fact is, covered in ice and red dye number seven, you guys look more like a team than you ever have out on that field.

  Dave Karofsky : I don't care. I'm out.

  Shannon Beiste : Then you're off the team.

  Dave Karofsky : No way.

  Shannon Beiste : Yeah.

  Dave Karofsky : If we all quit, you barely have enough guys to play next week. It's the championship game. You're not gonna throw it away.

  Shannon Beiste : Try me.

• Dave Karofsky : Looking good out there, Puck.

  Noah 'Puck' Puckerman : You know what? I don't want to hear it, Karofsky. I don't want to hear it from any of you. You're all a bunch of cowards. Coward losers.

  Azimio : Yeah, you're the only loser losing this game.

  Noah 'Puck' Puckerman : You know, this is it. This is the moment of our lives. This is the one we can actually look back and tell our children about. This is our moment to actually win something, and you guys are sitting in the damn stands! I mean, you're so afraid of being called geeks or losers or gay that you settle for being nothing. Well, we still have a whole half to play. And we can win this, guys, I know it.

  Azimio : What's the point, man? Beiste isn't gonna let us play.

  Noah 'Puck' Puckerman : She will if you come out and perform at the halftime show.

  Azimio : I'm in.

  Strando : Me, too.

  Dave Karofsky : No way.

  Azimio : Come on, man, I really want to win this game. It would mean so much to my dad, man.

  Dave Karofsky : Forget it, okay? Glee Club sucks.

  Noah 'Puck' Puckerman : Fine, Karofsky's out. Whatever. But the rest of you need to get in your zombie makeup and hit the field toot sweet. Come on, let's go!

• Will Schuester : [watching a rocky start to rehearsals]  It's good, but let's... put a little life into it.

  Dave Karofsky : But we're dead.

  Will Schuester : Then put some afterlife into it. So get out of your heads and get into your characters, all right?

• Dave Karofsky : No freakin' way!

  Will Schuester : We don't have a choice. Sue pulled the Cheerios! from the game, so if we don't do it, there's no halftime show.

  Lauren Zizes : And this is a problem because...?

  Shannon Beiste : It's not a problem. It's an opportunity.

  Strando : Opportunity to humiliate ourselves.

  Shannon Beiste : Hey! The whole point of this week was to bring you guys together; to bring the school together.

  Azimio : Wait, so you want us to play the first half, change into some "sequeen" ball gowns, and then go out and do the halftime show at our championship game?

  Shannon Beiste : Yes.

  Azimio : It's the championship game! This is a crazy town.

• Dave Karofsky : [after getting Slushied]  Oh, my eyes! It's burning!

  Finn Hudson : Just relax. It stops after a couple hours.

  Dave Karofsky : No frickin' way I'm letting that happen again.

  Artie Abrams : He's in the first stage of loserdom: denial.

• Scott Cooper : Appropriate outfits. They represent the death of your guys' reign at this school.

  Finn Hudson : How many times do we have to put you puckheads in your place before you realize that football rules this school?

  Scott Cooper : Maybe, but not after you make dancing fools of yourself at that halftime show. You know it, we know it, the whole school knows it.

  Dave Karofsky : They'll think different after they see it. It's gonna be awesome.

  Scott Cooper : Holy crap. They turned Karofsky gay.

  Noah 'Puck' Puckerman : What are you moose knuckles doing with those Slushies?

  Scott Cooper : Ready for the fireworks? It's Independence Day.

• Will Schuester : Hey, Dave. Talk to you for a second?

  Dave Karofsky : Look, I know I'm bad. Can you just spare me, so we can get through this?

  Will Schuester : That's not what I was gonna say at all. You're actually really good. If you took that energy you used bullying people and put into this, you'd be one of the most talented guys in the school. Just think about it.

• Dave Karofsky : Hey, I need to talk to you.

  Finn Hudson : Can-can we not fight for just one day? Man, it's already hard enough not to kick you in the nuts every time I see you.

• Shannon Beiste : All of you are gonna be in this Glee Club for one week, no exceptions.

  Dave Karofsky : She's bluffing. Next week is the championship game. Without us, she has no team.

  Shannon Beiste : With you, I have no team! You guys have gotta find a way to come together, or we're gonna get our asses kicked from here until Tuesday finds a saddlebag full of buckwheat.

  Azimio : If I have to stay, I'm not singing no show tunes. That is the music of my oppressors.

  Finn Hudson : Do you even have any idea what we do in here?

  Will Schuester : No. None of them do. We have to show them. Rachel, Puck, haven't you guys been working on something? Why don't you give it a whirl?

  Rachel Berry : Fine. As offended as I am by their presence here, I won't let anything get in the way of a performance.
