  • This exchange:
    Coach Willis: Seen you around... you're not really into sports.
    Casey: I don't think a person should run unless he's being chased...
  • The sight of Elijah Wood laughing in a high-pitched voice (at about 7:20) during the drug test scene.
  • Marybeth getting Stokeley to actually talk to Stan? She pushes her onto his desk, making her land right in his lap. And it works!
  • Casey and Delilah spending time in the teacher's lounge together and Casey gives us this after hearing Delilah:
    Casey: (scoffs) God, you can be such a...
    Delilah: What?
    • Then, Delilah asks if he's hitting on her and he tells her she has moments, but this not being one of them.
    • Casey smelling Delilah's hair while they're hiding in the closet of the lounge.
  • The entire group erupting into panic once Delilah reveals herself as an infected, with all the guys trying to will themselves into shooting her. And then Stokely, who didn't get along with Delilah to begin with, bursts through the crowd and goes "I'll fuckin' shoot her!" and fires about five bullets in Delilah's general direction.
  • While it's Mood Whiplash, when the coach stabs the principal with a pencil, he says, "I've always wanted to do that." The principal thinks she's made it to safety, locking him inside, another teacher stabs her repeatedly with a pair of scissors, and then says, "I've always wanted to do that."
  • Casey and Delilah find Mrs. Bromwell's body (?) in the closet and come back with the police. The body has been moved and replaced with a mannequin used for life-saving practice. The principal remarks that the doll does have a strong resemblance to Mrs. Bromwell.
  • Coach Willis's Finger Gun and wink.
  • They kidnap the Alien!Principal and tie her up in a net. Her response? "You're all expelled!"
  • Zeke is trying to keep serious during the whole getting high scene. But Delilah's bitchiness makes him burst out laughing at random (which is less funny moments later when it turns out that she is infected)
    Zeke: (laughing) Is she always this much fun, man?
    Stan: Nah, sometimes she can be a real bitch.
    Casey: (laughing) Oh yeah! (high fives Stan)
  • "Aliens are taking over the fuckin' school..."
  • When Casey's parents confiscate his Porn Stash. It's made clear that his mom knows exactly where it is, and his father looks slightly nostalgic as he contemplates the magazines.
    Casey's mom: [whispering] His porn! [points to where it's hidden]
    Casey's Father: Sorry, pal. No more flogging the bishop.
    • When Casey sees some of the infected faculty outside his house and runs out to investigate, his father ushers him back inside, still holding the magazines in his hand.
  • Zeke's Screw This, I'm Outta Here reaction to a possessed Miss Burke's decapitated head growing tentacles and wandering back to its body.
  • Stokeley's epic putdown to Delilah?
    "Fuck you, titbags."
  • Zeke's Dull Surprise after cutting most of Mr. Furlong's fingers off and stands there, probably a bit traumatized.
  • After the incident with Mr. Furlong and they've realised a) aliens are possessing everyone, and b) they just killed a teacher...
    Stokeley: Isn't this the part where someone says "let's get the fuck out of here"?
    Stan: Let's get the fuck out of here.
  • Stokeley's Big Damn Kiss to Stan immediately turns into Mood Whiplash when she sees Zeke, Marybeth and even Casey giggling at the suddenness of it.
  • Coach Willis' gleeful reactions to the massive hits during the football game are pretty hilarious. As is the opposing coach throwing his clipboard over his shoulder in exasperation to the carnage his players are being subject.
  • Gabe has a joke towards Stokely early on when Mr. Furlong is working with what Casey found on the field:
    Gabe: Hey, Stokely, maybe it's from your planet?
    Stokely: Blow me, blood fart.
  • Stokeley compares what's happening to Invasion of the Body Snatchers, summarises the plot to Casey and within seconds knows he's taking it seriously - deadpanning "that was a joke".
